Hello, I just migrated my wiki (successfully) to last Release Candidate, but problem is that my velocity macros are not executed anymore. I saved the page containing the macros using my admin user with programming rights, but it seems to be the same ... I know this problem has been addressed already, but I just could not find the information, help me please ! ;-) Best regards Jeremie

Hi, **** The migration steps I used (hope I did not forgot something !): - shutdown tomcat - backuped the mysql database with a SQL dump - backuped the webapps/xwiki folder - unzipped the xwiki.war for RC3 in webapps/xwiki - restarted tomcat and launched my browser on the wiki - imported the panels application .xar - had problems to switch to advanced user, so I found in the doc the solution --> imported some pages from the default xwiki.xar - switched from my custom skin to the new default skin (layout was horrible before that) The only little problem I had was that maybe I imported too much from default .xar, and so my user lost its admin rights. I only had to add these rights again. I think I did not import the pages that you recommended not too (for Groups and Preferences), but ... I really did not have any real issue during the migration, much less than when I did try to migrate to pre-beta5 version ... But if you have a customized skin I think the result "from scratch" is not readable, you have to add it again "step by step" (because for example of disparition of left and top menu). By the way do you describe somewhere how to add a top menu bar for RC3 ? **** the macro problem: Sorry it was my fault : my macros page was included in all pages via the skin and so as I changed the skin the macros were not declared ... But I think I still have some problems with some of the macros, I will investigate and maybe ask you for some help, but by now I do not have enough information to give.

Hmm Sergiu, I don't think your first suggestion is a good idea because it will simply make some of the problems less obvious to find. Whether you have $something or $!something the wiki page author's intended output will still be affected if the expression cannot be evaluated for some reason.
