[xwiki-users] [Proposal] Improving the User Guide documentation
Hello, I would like to propose we update the User Guide documentation so that it's more helpful to users that start using XWiki, whether they are programmers or not. The purpose of the guide is to get users up to speed with the XWiki basics, to gather these resources in one place. You can find my proposal for the user guide here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/UserGuide Please feel free to make suggestions for other pages to be included or changes you think should be made. Remember this is not a TOC for all the documentation, but rather a selection of links to help you get started with XWiki.

Basically the idea is to have a single user guide that starts with some basic feature explanations (the getting started part) and that increases in complexity as you progress through the guide.

I agree that Guillaume's Getting Started guide needs to be reintegrated in the user guide as much as possible. As a consequence I've added links to part of the pages. Other issues however, like managing user groups, are better described in the platform documentation (more information, screenshots), so I preferred adding a link to those resources instead. If the Getting Started pages will be removed altogether I can copy their content to different pages and set the User Guide as their parent. I'll also include more screenshots. * It's missing an overall TOC I added the TOC at the XWiki Basics level, but this can easily be changed. * I only see XWiki Basics but this guide is supposed to be a full guide to all features.

(Hence This is not a TOC for all the documentation, but rather a selection of links to help you get started with XWiki. in the first email). I've extended the invitation for users to visit the Developer Administrator's Guides to further their skills and get a deeper understanding of XWiki. This way Getting started is interpreted not necessarily as the first steps to take with XWiki, but rather as mastering the basics of working with XWiki, with the possibility of enhancing your skills as you read the rest of the documentation. Should we add links to all our existing resources I think the User Guide may get too crowded and users with no significant coding experience may have trouble understanding it. WDYT? * I think you need the guide to start with a single page that is a TOC and have more separate pages. This will come naturally as a consequence of adding more explanations/texts to the each section (see first point above). The idea behind the User Guide page was that of a TOC (this is why it looks more like a collection of links). The small pieces of text are there to put the links in context, so that they make sense when seeing them for the first time. I agree with the having more separate pages. While in some sections the existing documentation is enough, for other areas we could add a lot more details to make things clear. This is the case of the blog for example (which is not yet included) for which there will be a separate guide. After the blog guide is ready there will be of course a link to it from the User Guide. The same goes for the WYSIWYG editor. This can be also done for other sections if users consider the existing documentation is not clear/descriptive enough. * The guide needs a lot more screenshots IMO. There should be screenshots everywhere. Remember that an image is worth a thousand words ;) I think we should avoid having images on the User Guide's main page (the one in Drafts) since this page's role is that of a TOC.

Re: [xwiki-users] [Proposal] Improving the User Guide documentation
One of problem with xwiki is that resources are quite distributed. Due to virtual wikis for www.xwiki.com, www.xwiki.org, dev.xwiki.org, l10n.xwiki.org even I am confused (though I have started using xwiki quite long time ago) where to find info (except for google) and where to put new entries (except for comments). So I see 2 options here, 1. aggressively normalized content chunks with (as much as possible) links between them (it seems current approach but needs more normalizing and linking). 2. very centralized approach with one super entry point (domain name/page/space), where all necessary info can be found.

IMO, this has a lot of downsides and it's not a very reliable solution. Can you can you give some details about your use case? AFAIK the login is not shared between the subsystems, so you will not be able to use the rest or xmlrpc features by logging in with http. Anyway, to do the login for the standard distribution you need to post to: /xwiki/bin/loginsubmit/XWiki/XWikiLogin. The parameters are: j_username, j_password, j_rememberme, and you will probably want to add xpage=plain and stop the redirects. From my experince this kind of approach ends up being quite costly.

Re: [xwiki-users] [Proposal] Improving the User Guide documentation
Hi, After reading all your emails I think the best solution is having both a guide for first time users and a complete guide to all XWiki features: - The Getting Started page can become the draft included in this email - The User Guide could be a TOC of all existing resources as Vincent suggested. This way both experienced and unexperienced users are happy: - First time users can discover XWiki one step at a time with the help of the Getting Started page - Experienced users don't have to look for information through the different wikis and can instead go to the User Guide TOC. Smaller guides will be made as suggested in the previous email for the blog, wysiwyg, etc. These will be linked from both the Getting Started page and the User Guide.

[xwiki-users] Still issues with livetables - author property display ?
Hi, Again with livetables ... Here I have a livetable showing objects from a custom class. One of the properties displayed is named author. While the livetable shows well, and the author properties are valued, the author column always remains empty. As it contained some characters, I added html:true as a column option, but still the column remains empty. I was wondering, is there some mismatch between my author column and a possible author property in xwiki ? Note : I use XWiki 2.0.3, but I will soon test with 2.2.1 as I know there were some improvements on livetables.

[xwiki-users] XWiki Logo Challenge
Hi XWikiers! It's time to inject new blood in XWiki.org. While discussing about improving its look feel we thought it would be a good time to create a new logo for XWiki.org as it's an important part of a website design. We borrowed the current logo from XWiki.com some time ago and, in order to keep the distinction between the company and the Open-Source project clear, we think XWiki.org websites and projects need their own logo. As you may know, we love proposals, that's why we'd like to make the logo design an open challenge, anyone interested can join and a vote amongst the community will determine the winner. Even if the main purpose of the challenge is to have fun, the person whose design gets selected will receive XWiki goodies, including his logo printed on a t-shirt obviously :) The designer of the selected logo will enter the Hall Of Fame, and last but not least reward : the design will be spread wide (XWiki Enterprise is more than 1 downloads/month and XWiki.org web site more than 5 visits a month). The challenge takes place there: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/LogoChallenge Thanks, JV. ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi All, Thanks for you valuable response. I am asking the httpclient for doing my own sso login. I am using JBoss portal which using OpenSSO - OpenDS as a user datastore. The same user get store in both JForum application's seperate database and also in xwiki database. In JForum i followed this approach to do the single sign on. 1. Check for my LTPA token cookie. 2. If its there i will get the user details with username and password from OpenSSO and do the login in jforum through the http client to maintain the user in session. 3. Add a cookie for JForum application. (The user will be in session till the LTPA token get expire). But i am not getting clear idea about implementation of my own sso in xwiki. Any solution please suggest.

Re: [xwiki-users] [Proposal] Improving the User Guide documentation
+1 I believe in making XWiki as friendly as possible to application developers so I think we should cater to people who are new to XWiki but have experience in development. As an example I found the FAQ Tutorial confusing and patronizing but I was at home with the object editor. Anyway just an idea and big +1 for all kinds of documentation. Caleb Silvia Rusu wrote: Hi, After reading all your emails I think the best solution is having both a guide for first time users and a complete guide to all XWiki features: - The Getting Started page can become the draft included in this email - The User Guide could be a TOC of all existing resources as Vincent suggested. This way both experienced and unexperienced users are happy: - First time users can discover XWiki one step at a time with the help of the Getting Started page - Experienced users don't have to look for information through the different wikis and can instead go to the User Guide TOC. Smaller guides will be made as suggested in the previous email for the blog, wysiwyg, etc. These will be linked from both the Getting Started page and the User Guide.

[xwiki-users] Strange ajax + json issue
Hello,
This is for something I'm trying to develop ... And I'm not sure it has
something to do with XWiki, but who knows ?
In a page I call a particular init() function like this :
Event.observe(window, load, init);
This init() aims at loading some JSON data from another page using Ajax. I
was inspired by the livetable.js here :-)
var json =
var ajx=new Ajax.Request(
http://localhost:8081/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/JSONProvider?xpage=plainoutputSyntax=plain;,
{method:get,onSuccess:function(transport) { json =
eval((+transport.responseText+)); }
}
)
This Javascript is in a .js file along with other resources on the server
filesystem. It is loaded with $xwiki.jsfx.use(...) .
When I debug step by step using Firebug, everything is fine, json variable
contains what I expect.
But when I'm not debugging and refresh the page, json variable is empty
... (breakpointing AFTER ajax call shows it). Though I can see in Firebug
that my Ajax http request finished with a 200 OK code.
Do you think it might be linked to the fact this method is called on page
load ? I can't see how it's different than other ajax calls in xwiki ...
Thanks for any help,
Jeremie

You should use what Prototype already offers:
- set the proper MIME type for the response from velocity, with
$response.setContentType('application/json')
- write well formed JSON (also include the ( and ) that you append
before the eval in your current code
- use transport.responseJSON to read the already parsed JSON data
{method:get,onSuccess:function(transport) { json =
eval((+transport.responseText+)); }
}
)

Can you also check the content of the response, to see if it's well
formed JSON? If you also set the right MIME type, then Firebug should
provide a tab with the JSON data of the response (depends on the actual
Firebug version).

Re: [xwiki-users] Strange ajax + json issue
Hello thx Sergiu,
I changed to json content-type, and responseJSON as you proposed.
I checked that my GET request is 200 OK, and in the response the JSON tab in
Firebug shows well formed JSON. But still my json variable is empty at
execution time !
By the way if I breakpoint on or before the Ajax.Request() and step over the
code, the json variable gets properly initiated and executed. Where it's
used afterwards, it's perfectly well formed.
I also added url parameters as 'parameters' of Ajax.Request instead of
directly in the url but no change.
Could it be a problem in the way I pass my json variable ? Declared outside
of Ajax.Request(...) ? It must be something really stupid but I just don't
understand ...

Re: [xwiki-users] Strange ajax + json issue
Hello,
Can't it be a timing problem ? When using Firebug, the system has time to
retrieve result from the AJAX request but at execution time it has not ?
