Bug fixes

Upgrade considerations

Hallo legacy rich text editor has moved to an external package

  • Hallo was deprecated in Wagtail v2.0 (February 2018) and has had only a minimal level of support since then.
  • If you still require Hallo for your Wagtail installation, you will need to install the Wagtail legacy Hallo editor package.
  • There will be no ongoing support for this package beyond this release.
  • window.registerHalloPlugin will no longer be created on the page editor load, unless the legacy package is installed.
