Hi David,

Sure!

So to refresh on how Apache & Confluence work, we have the actual confluence install here - I'm not sure that you need to get this going on your local machine. And then this gets exported here - http://cwiki.apache.org/ABDERA/.

This exporting is done via the auto-export plugin. What we need to do is tweak the auto-export configuration to use a reasonable template. I think this can be done here:

http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/admin/autoexport/configuration.action

In essence all one needs to do is go to "edit template" then paste in something appropriate. My idea was that maybe we could steal the ApacheDS template and tweak the color scheme/logo a bit? I'm open to anything else you're willing to do though. My main concern at this point is that there is no navigation bar on the exported site. And of course the big secondary concern is its sort of ugly :-)

Some random notes:
* You may need special permissions to do this. If so, email me your JIRA username and I'll arrange that. * I'm not sure that you need to get Confluence going on your local machine. Its ok if our site looks bad for a little bit while someone sorts it out. If its going to be any extended period of time you can always hit "Restore Default" for the Abdera auto-export configuration. * Once you change a template you can reexport the Abdera space on the autoexport configuration page.

Does that make sense?

Hey Dan,

I've installed confluence but I don't know how to start. I'm not sure if I
can work with the default templates or I should work with a specific one.

Can you help me?

Regards

I've readed something about confluence, I suppose you want to export a
html template from a site. I think I could do it but any help is welcome.

Anyone out there willing to help put together a confluence template
together for us? Our generated site looks kinda ugly at the moment...
:-)

The Apache Directory project has a really good one that we could rip:
http://directory.apache.org/ We would probably want a slightly different
color scheme and of course a different logo, but the basics could be
there already.

I can give pointers as necessary, but I don't quite have the bandwidth
at the moment.
