Jean-Vincent Drean 10.2 68 == Anonymous commenting with Captcha ==
Jean-Vincent Drean 8.1 69
Vincent Massol 15.3 70 Now thanks to the [[captcha module>>extensions:Extension.Captcha Module]] you can require unregistered users to solve a captcha in order to post comments. To require guests to solve a captcha simply go to the "Rights" section of the [[Administration Application>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application]] for the wiki or just the space, and check the box saying "Require unregistered users to solve a captcha when posting a comment on a page". **Note** This box does not give guests permission to comment, it only adds a requirement for commenting if they already have permission.

Vincent Massol 15.3 76 == Easier development of configurable applications using [[XWiki.ConfigurableClass>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application#HMaking20your20application20easily20configurable20with203Ctt3EConfigurableClass3C2Ftt3E20Since2023M1]] ==
Caleb James DeLisle 13.1 77
Vincent Massol 15.3 78 If you are developing an application and you need to provide your users with a way to configure it from the [[Administration Application>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application]] you are in luck because all you need to do is create a custom class holding all of the configuration for your application then add an object of your custom configuration class and an object of ##XWiki.Configurable## class and your application will be able to be configured in the administration interface.

101 == General Notes ==
102
Thomas Mortagne 6.1 103 {{warning}}
104 If you're running in a multiwiki setup you'll also need to define the property //xwiki.store.migration.databases=all// to your //xwiki.cfg// file or explicitly name all databases to be migrated as in <tt>xwiki.store.migration.databases=db1,db2,...//.
105 {{/warning}}
Jean-Vincent Drean 1.1 106
107 You may also want to [[import the default wiki XAR>>Main.Download]] in order to benefit from the improvements listed above.
108
Thomas Mortagne 6.1 109 {{warning}}
110 Always make sure you compare your //xwiki.cfg// file with the newest version since some configuration parameters were added. Note you should add //xwiki.store.migration=1// so that XWiki will attempt to automatically migrate your current database to the new schema. Make sure you backup your Database before doing anything.
111 {{/warning}}

113 == Migration Notes ==
