Upgrade considerations

Button styling class changes

The button-secondary class is no longer compatible with either the .serious or .no classes, this partially worked previously but is no longer officially supported.

When adding custom buttons using the ModelAdmin ButtonHelper class, custom buttons will no longer include the button-secondary class by default in index listings.

If using the hook register_user_listing_buttons to register buttons along with the undocumented UserListingButton class, the button-secondary class will no longer be included by default.

Avoid using disabled as a class on button elements, instead use the disabled attribute as support for this as a class may be removed in a future version of Wagtail and is not accessible.

If using custom expanding-formset the add button will no longer support the disabled class but instead must require the disabled attribute to be set.

The following button classes have been removed, none of which were being used within the admin but may have been used by custom code or packages:

  • button-neutral
  • button-strokeonhover
  • hover-no
  • unbutton
  • yes
