MediaWiki 1.44.0-rc.0

Upgrading notes for 1.44
edit
Don't forget to always back up your database before upgrading!
See the file UPGRADE for more detailed per-version upgrade instructions from the
oldest supported upgrading version, MediaWiki 1.35.
Some specific notes for MediaWiki 1.44 upgrades are below:
The default HTML markup used for headings has changed. Some skins may need updates. You can temporarily revert to the old markup by setting
$wgParserEnableLegacyHeadingDOM
to true (see below), but this option will be removed in the next release. See
Heading HTML changes
for more information.
For notes on 1.43.x and older releases, see HISTORY.
Configuration changes for system administrators in 1.44
edit
T382987
) The default value of 'http.dnsbl.sorbs.net.' in
$wgDnsBlacklistUrls
has been removed. This is because sorbs.net have stopped providing their services. This means that if you have
$wgEnableDnsBlacklist
set to true, it will no longer provide any value unless you add other servers to $wgDnsBlacklistUrls.
Google search removed (
T384678
): If site search is disabled with
$wgDisableTextSearch
but
$wgSearchForwardUrl
is not set to a URL to which to forward searches, then MediaWiki used to show a Google search form. This has been removed, and instead a notice is displayed. System administrators should set e.g.
$wgSearchForwardUrl = 'https://duckduckgo.com?q=$1'
to avoid this.
The 'exception-json' log channel has been removed. It previously provided structured exception data in a custom machine-readable format. Since MediaWiki 1.26, structured exception data conforming to the PSR-3 logging standard is also available on the 'exception' log channel. (Log channels can be configured using
$wgMWLoggerDefaultSpi
.)
$wgUsersNotifiedOnAllChanges
now requires the listed users to have confirmed email addresses, just like other kinds of email notifications do. You can confirm the email address by logging in as the user and using "Confirm your email address" in user preferences, or by running a maintenance script:
resetUserEmail.php --no-reset-password
New configuration
edit
T377829
$wgAutopromoteOnceRCExcludedGroups
- Defaults to an empty list, can be used to define a denylist of user group names. One-shot autopromotions into these groups will never result in an RC entry, even if
$wgAutopromoteOnceLogInRC
is true, as long as they were the only new groups the user was autopromoted into.
T240542
$wgAutoblockExemptions
- IP addresses and CIDR ranges listed here will not be affected by autoblocks, similar to
MediaWiki:Block-autoblock-exemptionlist
. Defaults to an empty list.
Changed configuration
edit
T13555
$wgParserEnableLegacyHeadingDOM
now defaults to `false`. You can set it to `true` to temporarily restore the legacy HTML markup for wikitext headings in the output from the Parser, in case you find that your wiki's content or an extension is incompatible with the new markup. More information:
Heading HTML changes
This option will be removed in a future release.
T45646
$wgAllowRawHtmlCopyrightMessages
now defaults to `false`, which means that the 'copyright-footer' and 'copyright-footer-history' wikitext messages will be used instead of 'copyright' and 'history_copyright' that supported raw HTML, and the 'SkinCopyrightFooter' hook will not be called. This helps protect your wiki against attacks by a rogue administrator account. You can set it to `true` to temporarily re-enable them until you can update your overrides. This option will be removed in a future release.
T386210
$wgAddGroups
and
$wgRemoveGroups
now use the correct merge strategy of `array_merge_recursive`. This lets extensions add entries from the extension.json file, which would previously be silently ignored.
T382987
$wgDnsBlacklistUrls
now defaults to an empty array. See the comment in the "
Configuration changes for system administrators
" section above.
T387856
$wgEnotifImpersonal
and
$wgEnotifMaxRecips
are now deprecated.
Removed configuration
edit
$wgResourceLoaderUseObjectCacheForDeps
, deprecated in 1.43, has been removed. It is now always enabled (
T343492
).
$wgBaseDirectory
, unused, has been removed in favour of MW_INSTALL_PATH. If a variable value is needed, inject an optional parameter instead.
New user-facing features in 1.44
edit
T363538
T204792
) New parser functions {{#interlanguagelink:prefix|title}} and {{#interwikilink:prefix|title|caption}} to unambiguously create interlanguage and interwiki links, respectively, even when the "prefix" might conflict with a namespace on the local wiki.
T326057
) Attempting to create a redirect to a nonexistent page will now result in a warning.
T33951
) The
Interwiki
extension has been moved to MediaWiki core. It is now possible to view and edit the
interwiki table
without installing an extension.
$wgInterwikiCentralDB
and
$wgInterwikiCentralInterlanguageDB
have been removed, use
$wgVirtualDomainsMapping
['virtual-interwiki'] and $wgVirtualDomainsMapping['virtual-interwiki-interlanguage'] instead.
$wgInterwikiViewOnly
has been removed, (un)assign "interwiki" right instead.
T302140
) Rollbacked edits are marked as manually patrolled instead of auto-patrolled since the rollback action was a manual patrol of the edit.
T56145
) Introduces a new tag 'mw-recreated' to note edits which create pages that have been previously deleted by having an associated deletion log entry. This does not consider deletion log entries that were suppressed.
T326056
) Attempting to create a redirect to another redirect will now result in a warning.
T322944
) Developers using the Action API can now use the new crossorigin= parameter. If used with a supported session provider, such as
OAuth
, this permits authenticated cross-origin requests against the Action API, similar to how origin=* allows unauthenticated cross-origin requests.
T24521
T62109
) Embedding a file (e.g.,
[[File:MediaWiki.png]]
) on a page protected with cascading protection will no longer restrict edits to the file description page, only file uploads. Transcluding a file description page (e.g.,
{{:File:MediaWiki.png}}
) will now restrict edits to the page.
T333211
T385346
) The link to 'Special pages' was removed from the toolbox. If it is not explicitely added in MediaWiki:Sidebar, then MediaWiki automatically adds it at the end and a log is emitted. Note that it will no more be automatically added in future versions; administrators should add it explicitely or it will disappear from the interface.
New features for sysadmins in 1.44
edit
T267477
) Users with
rename
userright can now rename themselves through
Special:RenameUser
T104830
Special:RenameUser
can now be used in wiki families using shared tables. A renameuser-global right is added and required when renaming global users. No groups have this right by default.
T310051
uppercase-ckb
collation added.
uca-xx-ckb
collation deprecated
New developer features in 1.44
edit
The AuthenticationAttemptThrottled hook was added.
The CodexTablePager class was added.

The ApiQueryCheckCanExecute hook was added.
The ChangesListInsertLogEntry hook was added.
The TempUserDetailsLookup service was added.

New helper methods Html::addClass() and Html::expandClassList().

Breaking changes in 1.44
edit
In StatusValue::replaceMessage(), ::hasMessage() and ::hasMessagesExcept() passing MessageSpecifier or MessageValue as $source, deprecated in 1.43, is no longer allowed.
StatusValue will no longer accept errors given as a MessageSpecifier combined with a parameters array. This was deprecated in 1.43.
The methods MessageValue::objectParams(), Message::objectParams() and Message::objectParam(), deprecated in 1.43, have been removed.
The UserGroupMembershipParam class, deprecated in 1.43, has been removed.
The ParamType::OBJECT constant, deprecated in 1.43, has been removed.
The MediaWiki\Message\Converter class, deprecated in 1.43, has been removed. Use MessageValue::newFromSpecifier or Message::newFromSpecifier instead (
T358779
).
Public access to OutputPage::mModules and OutputPage::mModuleStyles, deprecated in 1.38, has been removed.
Return type declarations were added to methods in `includes/libs/Message`, specifically in the `MessageSpecifier`, `ITextFormatter`, and `IMessageFormatterFactory` interfaces. This update enhances type safety but may require updates in any classes implementing these interfaces, including external extensions. Extensions such as Translate, Flow, and ReadingLists require compatibility patches to support these changes.
EditPage::internalAttemptSave(), deprecated since 1.43, was removed.
IDatabase::LB_TRX_ROUND_ID was removed and IDatabase::LB_READ_ONLY_REASON was marked as an internal constant.
IDatabase::onAtomicSectionCancel() has been removed without deprecation as it's completely unused.
ISQLPlatform::tableNames(), deprecated since 1.39, has been removed.
The Wikimedia\LightweightObjectStore\ExpirationAwareness interface is now considered internal. Use BagOStuff to access TTL constants instead.
The ParsoidOutputAccess class marked @unstable from creation and deprecated with all of its methods in 1.43, has been removed.
T382030
) MediaWiki core database schema and schema changes have been moved to a new top-level sql/ directory. This should only affect code directly referencing the old paths.
The HtmlToContentTransform::setMetrics() and HtmlInputTransformHelper::setMetrics() methods now require a StatsFactory argument. Passing a StatsdDataFactoryInterface was deprecated in 1.43.
The method ParserOptions::setupFakeRevision has been marked internal. It will remain backwards compatible in 1.44 but may change without notice in 1.45 or later.
The Less mixin .column-break-after-avoid(), deprecated in 1.43, has been removed. Use just the CSS rule `break-after: avoid-column;` instead now.
ApiBase::errorArrayToStatus(), deprecated in 1.43, has been removed.
ZipDirectoryReader has been moved to the Wikimedia\Mime library. No callers outside that library are known.

MediaWikiIntegrationTestCase::$tablesUsed, deprecated since 1.41, has been removed. The framework detects changed tables since 1.41 automatically.
MediaWiki\Language\Language class no longer supports manually calling the constructor, use LanguageFactory instead.
The MediaWiki\Config\MutableConfig interface now extends MediaWiki\Config\Config. Implementing MutableConfig without implementing Config is no longer possible.

ApiPageSet::getTitles(), ApiPageSet::getGoodTitles(), ApiPageSet::getMissingTitles(), ApiPageSet::getGoodAndMissingTitles(), ApiPageSet::getRedirectTitles() and ApiPageSet::getSpecialTitles, deprecated since 1.37, have been removed.
The methods Skin::getFooterIcons and ::makeFooterIcon are final and overriding is no longer supported.

wfGetDB(), deprecated in 1.39, has been removed.
The IDatabase transaction lifecycle callbacks onTransactionResolution(), onTransactionPreCommitOrIdle() and onTransactionCommitOrIdle() no longer receive a DB connection handle as an argument. (
T386190
The $schema parameters to DatabaseBlockStore::getQueryInfo() and ::getRangeCond() have been removed. They were documented as temporary migration support parameters. Support for ipb_* field aliases in DatabaseBlockStore::newFromRow(), which was meant to support the use of $schema, has been removed.

T166010
) All PHP code in MediaWiki is slowly being moved to be in a class namespace as appropriate, so that we can use PSR-4 auto-loading, which will speed up general code loading of MediaWiki. The old global namespace class names are being left behind as deprecated aliases.

) The hook 'SkinCopyrightFooter' now emits deprecation warnings.
T293512
) ParserOutput::getText, deprecated in 1.42, now emits deprecation warnings. It is expected to be removed in 1.45. Depending on the use case, calling sites should either use ParserOutput::getRawText or call the OutputTransform pipeline with ParserOutput::runOutputPipeline (unstable, see
T371004
) or by invoking the pipeline directly (to be worked on in
T371008
).
Other changes in 1.44
edit
The ArticleProtect and ArticleProtectComplete hooks are now called when WikiPage::doUpdateRestrictions is called to protect a non-existing title.
Introduce ISearchResultSet::isApproximateTotalHits() (defaults to false in BaseSearchResultSet) to let SearchEngine implementations run optimizations that might lead to innacurate computation of the exact number of pages matching the search query.
T367441
) ResourceLoader Debug mode now defaults to debug mode v2. This means
?debug=true
now maps to
debug=2
. Unlike debug mode v1, this doesn't load each file from disk, and your code looks the same as it is in production with closures that prevent global variable leakage.
