News for ikiwiki 2.60:

Admin preferences are moving from the web interface to the setup file.
There are three new options in the setup file: `locked_pages`, `banned_users`,
and `allowed_attachments`. The admin prefs page can still be used, but
that's deprecated, and the prefs will be hidden if a value is not already
set. If a value is set in the web interface, you're encouraged to move that
setting to your setup file now, since version 3.0 will remove the deprecated
admin prefs web interface.

Also, the layout of the setup file has changed in a significant way in this
release. Old setup files will continue to work, but new features, like the
new websetup interface, require a new format setup file. You can convert
old setup files into the new format by running
`ikiwiki-transition setupformat ikiwiki.setup`
