 == Important content changes ==
-=== Blog functionality ===
-Blog and discussion entries do not carry over to BlueSpice 5. You need to start new blogs and discussions. If you used these features extensively in previous versions, talk to your project manager before updating your system to discuss possible migration scenarios.
-=== Discussions ===
-Discussions are now handled by the extension CommentStreams. If you have previously used the behavior switch <code><nowiki>__NODISCUSSION__</nowiki></code> to hide the discussions section on a page, you need to replace it with the new tag <code><nowiki><no-comment-streams /></nowiki></code>
-=== PDF templates ===
-'''Cloud wikis:''' Make sure to read the documentation on [[Manual:Extension/PDFCreator#Migrating existing BlueSpice cloud PDF templates|how to copy your template customization to the new template pages]]. Your customization will still work in BlueSpice 5 after moving it to the new pages. In addition, you now have much more flexibility, because you can now set up more than one template.
-'''On-premise wikis:''' Before upgrading your wiki, talk to your project manager about migrating your custom PDF templates from the server directory to the wiki.
