#### Breaking Changes

* If a plugin has removed or replaced messages_notifier to hide/alter the
inbox icon, the plugin must instead do the same for the topbar menu handler
(messages_register_topbar).

Fixes #8862 ([67cff474](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/67cff4746d38c54905ba6ad3b8cc8f771d50feec))
* When creating within a group, ElggEntity::create used to always separately
check if the current user can use the owner's account as a container. This
made sure that one group member could not post to the group using another
member as owner. This separate check led to confusion, as handlers of the container_permissions_check hook were told that the owner was to be the
container, when it was actually the group.

Here we bypass the separate owner container check if the desired owner_guid
is the logged in user GUID. This eliminates the check under all normal
circumstances but leaves it in place in case a poorly coded plugin allows
the impersonation described above.

This also denies creation if the owner/container GUIDs are set but can't
be loaded. Before, create() would simply bypass the permissions check if
it couldn't load the owner/container.

Fixes #4231 ([5adf98fd](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/5adf98fd83e6c15a6f417b63e02f1fb4f0c3fcb4))
* We've removed the "categories" plugin from core.

You may access it at https://github.com/Elgg/categories

Fixes #7584
 ([ba0c12f2](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/ba0c12f227e0d2df64722d364af34b6c00e3bfbb))
* The zaudio plugin is no longer part of the bundled plugins. The plugin
has been moved to a seperate repository. You can find it here:
https://github.com/Elgg/zaudio
 ([ace52256](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/ace522564c8c09703836591243b3e5e88d15bc6a))

#### Breaking Changes

* To allow likes on your content you must permit the annotation to be created.
Likes provides a new hook “likes:is_likable” to allow easily registering entities
by type:subtype.

Fixes #5996 ([cb6ebcc9](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/cb6ebcc9703ab6c979cff22ca3a6a92025d5eee2))
* The plugins blog, bookmarks and file have been changed to have their
content listing for "Mine" and "Friends" list content where they are the
owner of. Previously it only listed content created in their container.
This resulted in group content not showing in 'my' content listings.

Fixes #4878 ([20e606b7](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/20e606b79fcb97d7969c82ad5650b32e47acb225))
* The functions blog_get_page_content_read and
blog_get_page_content_friends are no longer available. ([a437f952](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/a437f9525c6c96ff34f372e6ee26583f92e51793))
* The file mod/aalborg_theme/graphics/avatar_menu_arrows.png has been removed.

Fixes #8629 ([ee7f14ed](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/ee7f14ed803da8a06911a3fec3abd241e0adb823))
* Elgg no longer checks get_input(‘view’) and $CONFIG->view for every call
of elgg_get_viewtype(). elgg_set_viewtype() must be used to change the
global viewtype.

Fixes #8438 ([541a5cd1](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/541a5cd10e373829a45a698bdab322cf4d6653b4))
* The forms/admin/plugin/change_state view is no longer available ([796cafe7](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/796cafe7f8cef1def47b041dee814e3c7c50d74c))
* Only profile fields that are passed to the profile/edit action via
$_REQUEST will be updated. Omitted fields will not be cleared as it was
before this change.

fixes #8582 ([fd7b8e0a](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/fd7b8e0afc8e4dfadaed4b0fbe8919ccd7e0d27f))
* Fields not submitted to the groups/edit action will no longer be acted
upon. Previously they would be set to empty or default values. ([c3d11285](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/c3d11285cb257fb36a4f79231fb8047d92101847))
* dropped library elgg.markdown

The Markdown library is available as a composer package, this requires
less maintenance by Elgg developers.

fixes #8597 ([df68d986](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/df68d9864f787fa55fa1f9457692f1dbcd5587d6))
* The action widgets/upgrade is no longer available ([c3273d1d](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/c3273d1da04e3767f2003d9b30911e2baeb96cb2))
* The deprecated functions $user->getSites(), $user->addToSite(),
$user->removeFromSite(), $user->listFriends() and $user->listGroups()
are removed. ([3bde1718](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/3bde171803b79fd9e8f256f6428d634f9f742a27))
* This class is no longer used in Elgg. If you still need this, you need
to provide your own version of this class. ([4819c565](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/4819c565be316e2bf4ede594b36a212720887397))
* The deprecated function parameter support for $object->getSites() and
$object->addToSite() are removed. Update to the parameter usage as
defined in the ElggEntity functions. ([5d02672b](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/5d02672b3333326359fdb13959c963bc8b2c0f29))
* If you use a reference to the physical Elgg sprites please update your
plugin to use the FontAwesome icons.

Replace the Elgg sprites icons by FontAwesome icons, this allowes for
more icons and easier styling of the icons

fixes #7239 ([ea7b17d5](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/ea7b17d5575c28ed3013e20bbe4d776e31d174a2))
* The plugin views are redesigned to display in a lightbox. This completely
removes the views forms/admin/plugins/filter and forms/admin/plugins/sort.
 ([bde2c394](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/bde2c39490ff0c5a5f322eeceb36e0fc6c657d81))
* Discussion feature has been pulled from the groups plugin into its
own independent plugin.

The following views are not available anymore:
 - object/groupforumtopic
 - river/object/groupforumtopic/create

Also the [object, groupforumtopic] subtype has been replaced
with the [object, discussion] subtype.

Nothing changes from the group owners' point of view. The discussions
feature is still available as a group tool and all old discussions
are intact.

Fixes: #5994
 ([a4e484e6](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/a4e484e62db117531763c0487c4b04c098bfb909))
*
See http://jquery.com/upgrade-guide/1.9/ for how to move off jquery-migrate.

If you'd prefer to just add it back, you can use this code in your plugin's init:

```php
elgg_register_js('jquery-migrate', elgg_get_simplecache_url('jquery-migrate.js'), 'head');
elgg_load_js('jquery-migrate');
```

Also, define a `jquery-migrate.js` view containing the contents of the script.
 ([8f58da98](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/8f58da9868c90a2aee2e998bf552f9bea899d13e))
*
Great care has been taken to make this change as backwards-compatible as possible,
so you should not need to update any view references right away. However, you are
certainly encouraged to move your JS and CSS views to their new, canonical
locations.

Certain uses of the `view,$view_name` and `view_vars,$view_name` hooks will not work.
See the docs on "View aliases" for more info.

The long-deprecated remove_blacklist() function has also been removed. ([2247ed80](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/2247ed808392a16a2fc9e3375de3888427e9db27))
* Relationship additions only fire the “create”, “relationship” event. ([3517bd0f](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/3517bd0fef6dd6d4b548baff9a84fbb4b3c70e2a))
* Elgg no longer allows customizing the views template handler.
We don't think this ever really worked in the first place, so
probably no one was using it, but since it's conceivable someone
could be, we're leaving this warning.

Fixes #8440
 ([8ae86f16](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/8ae86f16fedc875cf466955f04db360aa9471823))
* If your theme or plugin was overriding or extending the 'css' view,
you should override/extend the 'css/elgg' view instead.
 ([51441706](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/514417063bd9a2ae89822050e0f5d6b893248bd1))
* The view js/admin and the namespace elgg.admin are not available anymore.
 ([7141da5f](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/7141da5fe2038baa6eb5e38faad479da935f44eb))
* To ensure your handler is called last, you must give it the highest priority
of all matching handlers. To ensure your handler is called first, you must
give it the lowest priority of all matching handlers. Registering with the
keyword “all” no longer has any effect on calling order.
 ([3e6a2898](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/3e6a28984bcbcb8e0698ca716fac924dc25fd10e))
* Several views that were deprecated in the 1.x series are being
removed in 2.x. This helps us keep the codebase clean and our
maintenance burden lower.
 ([805ecb1d](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/805ecb1de083fd2a16e739afa487a03537bae85e))
* This removes several views related to IE. If you need support for browsers
not listed in our browser support policy, we encourage you to to do so with
feature detection and polyfills rather than conditional comments and user-agent
sniffing.
 ([7fe9329e](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/7fe9329e648b82d1ffaa636d593a75b2f54f8c09))
* If you use the class FilePluginFile in your plugin, replace this usage
with ElggFile (for construction). Load files objects with get_entity().

Fixes #7763 ([6be0f97c](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/6be0f97cb6f61f2f2de6f269abd2e7554324101c))
* Any code that relies of mysql_* functions (expecting an implicit
connection) will fail. Also any handler functions passed to the
execute_delayed_read/write_query() function will now receive a
Doctrine\DBAL\Driver\Statement instead of an ext/mysql resource.
 ([96453494](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/96453494f9ec1ef5152582737cb5d5719ca7e55b))
* We are switching to `Zend\Mail` for sending emails in Elgg 2.0.
It's likely that there are some edge cases that the library
handles differently than Elgg 1.x used to. Take care to test
your email notifications carefully when upgrading to 2.0.

Fixes #5918
 ([e9de196d](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/e9de196dfc7291a5870751f65a6ddee0952ef9cf))
* For the best security and performance, serve all pages over HTTPS
by switching the scheme in your site's wwwroot to `https` at
http://yoursite.tld/admin/settings/advanced

Fixes #5729
 ([c0e81a40](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/c0e81a40730090c4d419a5101d375838ea2eac2d))
* If you use any inline scripts that depend on scripts in head, you'll need to
change them to external AMD modules and load them with `elgg_require_js`.

Fixes #2718 ([c91f1f3e](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/c91f1f3e5b0c825e34feae248a1a3ff5a5e2b640))

#### Breaking changes

#### Breaking Changes

* The CSSMin class included via minify was renamed to CSSmin.
If you were referring to it with capital M, you'll have to
change that to lower-case m.

However, note that Elgg's dependencies are not considered
public API, so this notice is only a courtesy. Please explicitly
declare your dependencies on third party vendors, even ones that
you know Elgg already includes. We may remove or update them at any time.
 ([c3b0d8bc](https://github.com/Elgg/Elgg/commit/c3b0d8bcf700e978833d1785c23ae0dbefa2280c))
* If you are checking out Elgg directly from GitHub,
you will need to run `composer install` after `git checkout` to
get your installation to a working state.

# v1.8.0 (Jackie) (September 5th, 2011)

## Notes
Elgg 1.8 contains the most changes in Elgg since the transition from Elgg
0.9 to Elgg 1.0. The core team tried to make the transition as smooth as
possible, but in the interest of following standards and simplifying the
development process for core and third party developers, we have made
changes that will require updating plugins. We believe these changes
will help Elgg development be easier for everyone.

It is unreasonable and unhelpful to list the full details of all changes in
this file. Instead, we will list the high level, overarching changes to
systems. If you are interested in the specifics, Elgg 1.8's source code is
highly documented and serves as a good guide and the git commit log can
provide excruciating details of what has changed between 1.7 and 1.8.

Please post your feedback, questions, and comments to the community site
at http://community.elgg.org. As always, thank you for using Elgg!

--The Elgg Core Development Team

A tip about updating plugins:

It's not difficult to update 1.7 plugins for 1.8. There is a detailed
document outlining this process on the wiki:
http://learn.elgg.org/en/stable/guides/upgrading.html#from-1-7-to-1-8

The basic process is:

1. Clean up the plugin to make sure it conforms to coding standards,
 official structure, and best practices.
2. Update any uses of deprecated functions. Functions deprecated in 1.7 will
 produce visible notices in 1.8!
3. Use the new manifest format.
4. Use the new menu functions.
5. Use the new JS features.
6. Update the views to use core CSS helper functions and classes instead of
 writing your own.

The documentation directory and the wiki has more information.

## User-visible changes
* New default theme.
* New installation.
* Separate and updated admin interface.
* Updated plugin themes.

## Generic API changes
* Improved the markup and CSS.
* Restructured and simplified the views layouts.
* Added a new menu system.
* Added new CSS and JS file registration functions.
* Added a JS engine.
* Added a breadcrumb system.
* Added a sticky forms system.

## New plugins
* Dashboard - The activity stream is now the default index page. A 1.7-style
dashboard is provided through the dashboard plugin.
* Developers Plugins - Developer tools.
* Likes - Allows users to "like" other users' content.
* oAuth API - A generic, reusable oAuth library.
* Tag Cloud - A widget-based tag cloud generator.
* Twitter API - A generic Twitter library that allows signin with Twitter
and pushing content to tweets. Replaces twitter_service.

## Deprecated plugins
* captcha - Captchas have long since stopped being useful as a deterrent
against spam.
* crontrigger - Real cron should be used.
* default_widgets - This functionality is now part of core.
* friends - This functionality is now part of core.
* riverdashboard - Displaying the river (activity stream) is default in
core. The original dashboard can be restored by the new Dashboard plugin.
* twitter_service - Replaced by Twitter API.

Elgg 1.8.0.1 was released immediately after 1.8.0 to correct a problem in
installation.
