When I write docs with XWiki I don't have to bother with titles since the title matches my level 1 title. It's a more natural flow when writing documentation. I think what we have in xwiki is better than what exist in other wikis where users have to explicitely enter titles. However there are some cases when the computed title isn't right (for example when you put some velocity in titles or when titles are computed as part of some scripting construct). For those odd cases it's good to have a title field override and it makes sense to have that in the metadata. > I'd say it should stay where it is.

While it's good to be consistent with other wikis I think xwiki is more advanced in this domain so it's pity to loose that. The fact that xwiki can auto-generate valid titles in 99% of cases is a really big plus IMO. The other wikis will use the document name as the title I guess which is way less good than what we have. > and > it should have a greater importance in the Lucene result score. This is agree :) Thanks -Vincent _______________________________________________ devs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/devs
