#### 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.
