[pmwiki-announce] 2.1.beta26 released

[Patrick R. Michaud]

I've just released 2.1.beta26, which has a number of new features
and changes, briefly described below.  The release is available from

    http://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-2.1.beta26.tgz
    http://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-2.1.beta26.zip
    svn://pmwiki.org/pmwiki/tags/latest

Here's a brief summary of changes for 2.1.beta26:

* Page links with query arguments are now always treated as 
  "existing page" links, even if the target page does not exist.

* For sites with user authentication, the $Author variable is 
  now automatically set to $AuthId unless overridden by the admin 
  or author.

* The (:pagelist:) directive now supports an "order=random" option.

* Viewing a GroupHeader or GroupFooter page now displays the contents 
  only once (previously the contents would appear twice).

* The FPLByGroup function (removed in 2.1.beta15) is now available in 
  scripts/transition.php; set $Transition['fplbygroup']=1; to use it.

* The default pmwiki skin css has been slightly improved (more
  tweaks and improvements are likely on the way).

* The scripts/stdconfig.php incorrectly used $EnableStdWikiStyles to
  load scripts/wikistyles.php, this has now been corrected to
  $EnableWikiStyles.

Comments, questions welcomed as always.
