Upgrade considerations
======================
2019-04-10 17:37:08 +02:00
Removed support for Python 3.4
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Python 3.4 is no longer supported as of this release; please upgrade to Python 3.5 or above before upgrading Wagtail.
2019-06-07 19:13:04 +02:00
Icon font implementation changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The icon font implementation has been changed to be invisible, by switching to using `Private Use Areas <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Use_Areas> `_ Unicode code points. All of the icon classes (`` icon-user `` , `` icon-search `` , etc) should still work the same, except for two which have been removed because they were duplicates:
* `` icon-picture `` is removed. Use `` icon-image `` instead (same visual).
* `` icon-file-text-alt `` is removed. Use `` icon-doc-full `` instead (same visual).
For a list of all available icons, please see the :ref: `styleguide` .
