[xwiki-users] [Proposal][UX] Feedback for Explicit Content Actions

[Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)]

Hi,

We had feedback that new users don't know where to find the 'Edit' and
'Create' buttons. Also there is some confusions of why we have a 'cog' icon
that contains actions like 'Delete' and a 'three dots' icon that contain
other actions.

Would be great if you could tell us which version you prefer:
P2:

P4:
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaLabeledActions/P4_1_bigger.png

Both proposals add backgrounds around the icons, the main difference is
that P2 also uses descriptive labels, while P4 keeps the consistency with
the top icons and a more minimalist style.

For the more actions menu, we want to combine the actions and add category
labels, see

What do you think? Do you have other solutions for your instances? Did you
encounter the same problem?

Thanks,
Caty

[xwiki-users] [Proposal][UX] Feedback for Visible Save buttons

[Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)]

Hi,

We had some users complaining that the first time they edit a page they
don't know how to save it. Depending on the screen resolution, the save
buttons since they are at the bottom of the page are not visible and some
users don't know they need to scroll in order to see them.

We want to make some changes to XWiki, that:
- Display the save buttons in a fixed bottom bar, when they are out of the
viewport, see
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/bottomBar.png
- When the user scroll, the buttons go into their position, see
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/after.png
- We compacted the bottom functionalities (summary, minor, auto-save), see
before:
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/before.png
after:
http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/smallViewPort.png

What do you think about this proposal? Would it improve the visibility of
the buttons? Do you have other ideas? Is it something we should implement?

Thanks,
Caty

You should really consider using the recommended upgrade practice which is to 
use the Distribution Wizard, see 
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade

If you really want to import content make sure you don’t include any default 
page at least. I’d still recommend using the DW.

Thanks

[xwiki-users] Maximum size of an attachment in subwiki

[Sebastian Luna Valero]

Hi All,

Thanks for releasing XWiki 8.4.5!

I am about to import content from the old to the new xwiki, but the .xar
file is larger than the 32MB size limit. Previously I have followed the
instructions here:
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Attachments

to increase the maximum size of the attachment. However, it seems to work
only for the main wiki but not for subwikis, is that true?

Best regards,
Sebastian
