[xwiki-users] discussion tab (similar to mediawiki)
Hi, I would like to have a discussion tab, similar to how wikipedia has one. Is there a configuration option to turn this on? Or a plugin I can install? Thanks in advance, Josh ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Re: [xwiki-users] discussion tab (similar to mediawiki)
Thanks Guillaume. Currently I'm using the default skin Albatross, it seems that I may need to modify the skin and add a tab for comments (discussion). So it seems more than CSS changes? Unless I'm missing something more simpler?

Re: [xwiki-users] discussion tab (similar to mediawiki)
Hi Josh, In XWiki, everything you see on a page is a matter of CSS Velocity Groovy scripts. That is to say, the skin is built using CSS and Velocity. Therefore modifying your skin is a matter of CSS changes ;-) Basically what you have to do is to identify how the CSS currently displays comments on your page, remove those lines from your skin and then work out your own tab CSS magic. I guess you've already read http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins... On my side I'll try to see whether a blank tab skin like Wikipeople's one can be made available on XWiki.org, but that may take a while... Hope this helps, Guillaume On 16/10/2007, Josh Joy [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thanks Guillaume.

Re: [xwiki-users] Page preferences
It didn't work for me too. Is there any file that stores the names of the velocity variables ? vmassol wrote: Hi, On Oct 16, 2007, at 8:11 AM, V.

[xwiki-users] More on upgrade from 0.9
Hi all, as anyone can see there's a first attempt to upgrade from v0.9 in http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Installation#HUpgradinganXWikiv09Installation The problem with this approach is that it just migrates the Java code, but not the one inside the xwiki pages stored in the database. In order to construct a strong and complete migration process I need some help (as usual :-D), mainly : * what pages/spaces contain code that is considered part of XWiki distribution ?? * does anyone has success in making the code at http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Test/ImportExport work on 0.9 ?? * any other places to look at for other pieces of XWiki core that should be added to the upgrade guide ??

For this reason this list is a good start but we could also get together on xwiki.org and build a page just around the issue if it makes sense. I don't have the migration done yet, so I am angry for any info you could produce ;) To make the story short you have to find this information: - install the import/export into 0.9 (see old.xwiki.org for the code) - fix the database XWD_ARCHIVE mediumblob type to longblob (xwiki.org) - increase the attachment file size limit (also xwiki.org) - increase the heap size used by your servlet container (-Xms : see for example http://java.sun.com/docs/hotspot/gc1.4.2/ for more) Weirdness and bad luck: - (A) migrating to 1.1rc2 works to 1.1.1 fails :P - (B) 1.1.1 can't open the xar package (once attached), it complains about a file not ending correctly (zip) Strategies - option 1 - install 1.1.1 fresh and import a xar (first fix the issues above) - option 2 - install 1.1.1 and connect it to the database (there bad luck happens) Possible ways to fix the problem - B could be fixed by modifying the import code (is there something hardcoded involving the size of the expected zip?) - the database migration could be fixed by running a script within mysql to migrate the schema (if only we knew what has been changed as well as the exact meaning and purpose of the attributes) What's next? ;) Marc ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

I missed something here :P The problem si that XWiki core isn't just Java, it also contains code inside the XWiki pages. e.g. if I install a new servlet container (with XWiki 1.1 inside it) and a new database where I copy the old one, this installation has new Java code and old wiki code. A typical example is the page that generates the RSS feeds (RssFeed, I think) * does anyone has success in making the code at http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Test/ImportExport work on 0.9 ?? Yes Please, tell me how, because I discovered two problems : two missing javascript files in 0.9 (they' re part of 1.1) and getURL seems missing from the 0.9 API (I'm not completely sure). Perhaps there's more ... who knows ?? * any other places to look at for other pieces of XWiki core that should be added to the upgrade guide ??

BTW, if you find any error don' t hesitate in correct it, and *please* don't use th WYSIWYG editor because it has problems with some tags. What's next? ;) I think that after that Export Import work it' s piece of cake. Two of the three main pieces are already easy to migrate (code and skins), we need only to extract the pages that are not part of XWiki code from one database and put it in the new one !!!

[xwiki-users] WYSIWYG editor and velocity
Hi everyone, I wrote a page with some code in it: SOME TEXT... #foreach ($docum in $xwiki.getSpaceDocsName(workgroups)) #set ($name = $xwiki.split($docum,_)) #set ($isMeeting = 0) #set ($i = 0) #foreach ($word in $name) #set ($i = $i+1) #if (($i == 1) ($word == MT)) #set ($isMeeting = 1) #elseif ($i == 2) #set ($date = $word) #elseif (($i == 3) ((WG_+$word) == $doc.getName())) Meeting [$dateworkgroups.$docum] br/ #end #end #end SOME TEXT... If I edit the page in wiki-mode, no problem. But if I edit the page in WYSIWYG-mode, and then save it, the code is not working anymore. Actually the same section become: SOME TEXT... #foreach ($docum in $xwiki.getSpaceDocsName(workgroups)) #set ($name = $xwiki.split($docum,#95;)) #set ($isMeeting = 0) #set ($i = 0) #foreach ($word in $name) #set ($i = $i+1) #if (($i == 1) ($word == MT)) #set ($isMeeting = 1) #elseif ($i == 2) #set ($date = $word) #elseif (($i == 3) ((WG#95;+$word) == $doc.getName())) Meeting [$dateworkgroups.$docum] \\ #end #end #end SOME TEXT... So, the character '_' is replace by '#95;'. Any solution to this problem? Thanks! Vito ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
