    2121If you are upgrading from an earlier major version of Foswiki or from an old TWiki such as Cairo (TWiki 3) you will need the information found in Foswiki:System.UpgradeGuide.  There is also a static HTML =UpgradeGuide.html= included in the root of your Foswiki distribution.

    23 Upgrading from a recent TWiki4 release is much simpler. Upgraders from earlier TWiki4 versions can follow the steps described in Foswiki:Support.UpgradingFromOlderTWikiReleases to ensure a safe upgrade without accidently overwriting customizations.

    160160---++ Install Plugins 
    161 Foswiki:Extensions is an extensive library of Plugins for Foswiki, that enhance functionality in a huge number of ways. A few plugins are pre-installed in the Foswiki distribution. For more information on these, see =%SYSTEMWEB%.InstalledPlugins=. 
    162  
    163 You activate installed plugin in the _Plugins_ section of =configure=. In this section you also find a _Find More Extensions_ button which opens an application which can install additional plugins from the foswiki.org website. If you are behind a firewall or your server has no access to the Internet it is also possible to install plugins manually. Manual installation instructions for the plugins can be found in the plugin topics on foswiki.org. Additional documenation on Foswiki plugins can be found at Foswiki:Support.PluginsSupplement.

    181181---++ WYSIWYG vs Raw Edit 
    182182 
    183 From TWiki release 4.2.0 and continuing with Foswiki 1.0.0 the WYSIWYG editor has been replaced by a much better and more powerful editor and it was decided that WYSIWYG would be the default edit mode. An Edit Raw link is available for those that have a need or preference for this mode.

    184184 
    185185However you may prefer to have the same user interface as in TWiki 4.1 where _Edit_ was the raw text editor and you had a WYSIWYG button. You can modify the templates that define the buttons by following the description on Foswiki:Support.FaqHowToMakeRawEditDefault.
