More specifically the following pages should be imported with great care: 147 - 148 -* XWiki.XWikiPreferences: This page contains some configuration of your wiki (it overrides the configuration defined in ##xwiki.cfg##). If you import a new version of this page you'll lose any customization you may have made such as the skin to use, the rights for your wiki, etc. 149 -* XWiki.WebPreferences, Main.WebPreferences, and all other spaces WebPreferences pages: Same as XWiki.XWikiPreferences but at the level of a space 150 -* XWiki.XWikiAllGroup (list of registered users) and XWiki.AdminGroup (list of Admins): If you have existing users and import a new version of these pages, you'll find that your users do not belong to these groups anymore and thus may not be able to edit pages, log in, etc. You'll need to add them again to the right groups 151 -* XWiki.Admin: This page contains the Admin user with the default password. If you import it you'll create a security hole. Thus it's very important not to import this page 152 -* *.*Config: These are configuration pages and thus must not be overwritten. Some examples: 153 -** XWiki.RegistrationConfig: Contains Registration configuration of your wiki 154 -** Invitation.InvitationConfig: Configuration for the [[Invitation Application>>extensions:Extension.Invitation Application]] 155 -* XWiki.XWikiServerXwiki (multi wiki): This page contains the server descriptors and wiki properties 156 -* Any other page you have modified, such as Main.WebHome, a modified Panel, etc. 157 - 158 158 ---- 159 159 160 160 == (% class="label label-default" %)Alternative(%%) Start fresh, plus Export and Reimport your data ==
