Highlights

This version now uses the more secure PHP password_hash algorithm; the MD5 hash algorithm has been deprecated as of this release and is slated for removal within the next few releases. If you have a site with few users, simply changing the password for each user will generate the more secure password hash and bypass the MD5 check. If you have a busier site, there is an option on the AdminUsers page called "Force password reset for all non-admin users":

Unknown action; the action name must not contain special characters. You MUST enable user registrations in wikka.config.php ('allow_user_registration' => '1',) to allow access by users other than the administrator set up during installation.

There is a new configuration parameter, 'behind_reverse_proxy', set to a default of 0. Do not enable this unless you are actually running the instance behind a reverse proxy! By design, the X-Forwarded-* headers are insecure, and enabling this setting generates the proper links to the public-facing reverse proxy. If this setting is enabled, and the instance is not behind a reverse proxy, anyone can send X-Forwarded-* headers.
