Upgrade considerations¶
- This version only officially supports Wagtail and Django versions from 1.10 to 2.0. If you’re using anything earlier than that, you should consider updating your project. If upgrading Wagtail or Django isn’t an option, it might be best to stick with wagtailmenus 2.6 for now (which is a LTS release).
- This version also drops support for anything earlier than Python 3.4.
Following the standard deprecation period, the following classes, methods and behaviour has been removed:
- The
wagtailmenus.models.menus.MenuFromRootPage
class was removed. - The
__init__()
method ofwagtailmenus.models.menus.ChildrenMenu
no longer accepts a root_page keyword argument. The parent page should be passed using the parent_page keyword instead. - The root_page attribute has been removed from the
wagtailmenus.models.menus.ChildrenMenu
class. Use the parent_page attribute instead. - The
sub_menu
template tag no longer accepts a stop_at_this_level keyword argument. - The
get_sub_menu_items_for_page()
andprime_menu_items()
methods have been removed fromwagtailmenus.templatetags.menu_tags
. - The
get_attrs_from_context()
