	62	+
	63	+== Color Theme Editor ==
	64	+
	65	+The new editor allows fast and easy modifications for the look and feel of the wiki. You'll find in this editor
	66	+
	67	+* A new way of displaying themes on the "Color Themes" space home
	68	+(((
	69	+image:ReleaseNotes.ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise23M1@AvailableThemes.png
	70	+)))

	86	+
	87	+== Anonymous commenting with Captcha ==
	88	+
	89	+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.
	90	+[[This feature is documented here.>>platform:AdminGuide.Configuration]]
	91	+Sample:
	92	+
	93	+[[image:ReleaseNotes.ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise23M1@CommentCaptcha.png||width=550px; style="border:1px solid black;]]
	94	+
	95	+== Easier development of configurable applications using [[XWiki.ConfigurableClass>>extensions:Extension.Administration Application#HMaking20your20application20easily20configurable20with203Ctt3EConfigurableClass3C2Ftt3E20Since2023M1]] ==
	96	+
	97	+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. 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. You will be able to configure your application from the administration interface.
	98	+The following is an image of the administration interface with additional applications to be configured (you can customize the icon used).
	99	+
	100	+[[image:ReleaseNotes.ReleaseNotesXWikiEnterprise23M1@AdministrationPanelExtraIcons.png||width=550px; style="border:1px solid black;]]
	101	+
	102	+Note the current user does not have permission to edit one of the configurable applications.
	103	+
	104	+== Introduced [[XWiki Cryptographic Module>>extensions:Extension.Cryptographic Module]] ==
	105	+
	106	+This module exposes high level APIs allowing developers to bolster their security using cryptography for both integrity and confidentiality.
	107	+
	108	+You can find more information about the cryptographic module including examples at the Extensions page for the [[XWiki Cryptographic Module>>extensions:Extension.Cryptographic Module]].
	109	+
	110	+== Improvements to Action Menus ==
	111	+
	112	+* New Add menu: Use the "Add" menu to create new spaces, pages, add attachments and comments.(((
	113	+[[image:AddMenu.png||style="border: 1px solid black;"]]
	114	+)))
	115	+* Improved Wiki and Space menus: You may now access the document index straight from the wiki & space menus.(((
	116	+[[image:WikiMenu.png||style="border: 1px solid black;"]] [[image:SpaceMenu.png||style="border: 1px solid black;"]]
	117	+)))
	118	+* New Page menu: Integrates the Watch, Copy, Rename and Delete actions.(((
	119	+[[image:PageMenu.png||style="border: 1px solid black;"]]
	120	+)))
	121	+* The Edit, Export, More actions and Profile menus also benefited from a refresh.
	122	+
	123	+=== Visible content menu when scrolling down ===
	124	+
	125	+When scrolling down on a document, the content menu will follow, so the user will not have to scroll up on top of the page in order to access it.
