## **0.13.0** ???, 2015
A lot has happened since Hugo v0.12.0 was released.
* Changes to docs:
* A new [Troubleshooting](/troubleshooting/overview) section is added
* It's now searchable through Google Custom Search ([#753][])
* Some new great tutorials:
* [Automated deployments with Wercker](/tutorials/automated-deployments)
* [Creating a new theme](/tutorials/creating-a-new-theme)
* Several improvements to the [template functions](/templates/functions):
* `where` is now even more powerful and accepts SQL-like syntax with the operators `==`, `eq`; `!=`, `<>`, `ne`; `>=`, `ge`; `>`, `gt`; `<=`, `le`; `<`, `lt`; `in`, `not in`
* `where` template function now also accepts dot chaining key argument (e.g. `"Params.foo.bar"`)
* New template functions:
* `apply`
* `chomp`
* `delimit`
* `sort`
* `markdownify`
* `in` and `intersect`
* `trim`
* `replace`
* Several new ways to order and group content:
* `ByPublishDate`
* `GroupByPublishDate(format, order)`
* `GroupByParam(key, order)`
* `GroupByParamDate(key, format, order)`
* The [shortcode](/extras/shortcodes) handling is rewritten for speed and better error messages. Noticeable functional change is the distinction between `{{</* */>}}` (typically raw HTML) and `{{%/* */%}}` (Markdown)
* Support for [cross-references](/extras/crossreferences)
* A new, generic Next/Prev functionality is added to all lists of pages (sections, taxonomies, etc)
* Add in-section [Next/Prev](/templates/variables) content pointers
* Several [configurable improvements related to Markdown rendering](/overview/configuration/#configure-blackfriday-rendering:a66b35d20295cb764719ac8bd35837ec):
* Configuration of footnote rendering
* Optional support for smart angled quotes, e.g. `"Hugo"` → «Hugo»
* Enable descriptive header IDs
* The content is now copied from archetype on `hugo new` (in addition to the front matter metadata)
* Improved unit test coverage
* Hugo has undergone a major refactoring, with a new handler system and a generic file system. This sounds and is technical, but will pave the way for new features and make Hugo even speedier
* [Ace](http://ace.yoss.si/) template engine support ([#541][])
* Fixed a lot of Windows-related path issues
* Improved error messages for template and rendering errors
* Enabled soft LiveReload of CSS and images ([#490][])
* Various fixes in RSS feed generation ([#789][])
* URLs in XML output is now correctly canonified ([#725][], [#728][], and part of [#789][])
* `HasMenuCurrent` and `IsMenuCurrent` is now supported on Nodes
* A bunch of [bug fixes](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/commits/master)
