Re: [xwiki-users] What is a quick way to know the reference to a wiki page so you can use the include macro with it?

[Paul Pinkerton (ACLCO)]

I usually go to the page I need and view it and can get the info from the url, 
space/pagename at the end, of course replacing the / with a . for that macro.  
I don't know if that works on all setups of xwiki, but...

Re: [xwiki-users] Extension Release notes 1.3.1 : releasenotechanges macro

[Yann]

Hi Vincent,

Thanks a lot for your answer. I was able to install the demo (through
mvnrepository.com not through the extension manager but that was not a
problem) and it works fine.
The problem with my own RNs is that the {{releasenotechanges}} macro does
not detect the changes or can't make the link between the changes I created
and the release note, so I guess (I was convinced actually) that the macro
works fine but that I do something wrong.

In fact I don't understand what parameters the macro uses to link changes /
RN.
Playing with the demo Xwiki RNs, I was able to add changes that were
immediatly displayed on the corresponding RN, but I noticed something weird
when I displayed the object page for the RN and the changes : the version
parameter is not the same...

For the changes version = 8.3-rc-1

For the RN version = 8.3RC1

(I thought the link was made on the product + version parameters.)

If I configure the version parameter for the change to 8.3RC1, the change
won't show up in the RN (8.3RC1). If I revert back to 8.3-rc-1 it appears
again. I think I am pretty close to the solution just need to know the
right parameters for the link.

Regarding multilanguage support, I am going to open a jira as soon as I can.

For the last part I need to learn a little bit more about Xwiki but will
definetely try it when I feel more confortable.

Thanks again for your help,

Yann

[xwiki-users] API/Scripting : create user and attach some files to its profile

[m...@ow2.org]

Hi,

I'm working on a registration system around xwiki.

The basic workflow is the user is created in a LDAP directory at
registration time. Then the user can login to xwiki.
It's only upon the first successful login to xwiki that the user's xwiki
profile is created in xwiki database.

Now here is my point : how could I prepare the user profile *before* he
gets connected ? For example I would be able to attach some files to
XWiki. and why not some others attributes.

Is anyone already achieved this ?

Cheers

Yep that’s why I introduced that {{releasenotechanges}} indeed :)

It’s probably not very clear but at 
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Release+Notes+Application/#HPrerequisites26InstallationInstructions
 there’s an explanation about how to install a Demo application using the 
Release Notes app.

Could you try installing it and see if it helps?

Good point. I haven’t implemented support for multilanguage release notes. You 
could open a jira at http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/RN (and provide a pull 
request if you know how to do that :)).

The template can be configured (see 
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Release+Notes+Application/#HConfiguration)
 but this won’t work to dynamically decide what template to use based on 
various parameters.

ATM of you want to do this, you’ll need to modify a page: 
ReleaseNotes.Code.HomeExistingReleaseNotes and modify the following lines:

#set ($configDoc = $xwiki.getDocument("${topSpace}.Code.ReleaseNotesConfig"))
#set ($defaultProduct = $configDoc.getValue('product'))
#set ($defaultTemplateReferenceString = $configDoc.getValue('template'))

If you compute the reference to the doc you wish to use as template in the 
variable $defaultTemplateReferenceString the rest should work fine.

Thanks

[xwiki-users] What is a quick way to know the reference to a wiki page so you can use the include macro with it?

[Cuong Hoang]

Hi everyone,

I have spent some time trying to use the Include macro without success. It
requires a reference to the entity (e.g. document) that I want to be
included, but it is not obvious how to correctly generate this reference
value. Some guides say it should be in the form of . but where are spaces in XWiki? I know XWiki has subwikis but I don't
see spaces anywhere. And I tried . too, to no
avail. No errors were displayed either.

Thanks!
