[xwiki-users] Can't contact farm administration wiki anymore
Hello, I've a strange effect with our wiki farm: I can't contact the farm administration wiki anymore! All other wikis are available! Xwiki seems to think the xwiki wiki is not available and forwards me to the error page (this wiki is not available, as configured in xwiki.cfg). Is there a way to figure out what's happening here?

[xwiki-users] Filesystem Storage vs Database Storage
Hello everyone, since we have a lot of large attachments (10 MB +) inside our wiki, we are considering the new filesystem based attachment storage engine. As described here: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filesystem+Attachment+Porter it is still experimental. I was wondering if anyone has any experiences which he/she could share with me so I am not losing any data and make the same mistakes? Has anyone used the extension to transfer their files from the database to the filesystem? Thank you for your feedback, Chris ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users
[xwiki-users] Document parent name changing on edit.
Hello All,
At the top of some pages, I have three html buttons for the options to 'go
to parent page', 'edit current', and 'delete current'.
go to parent page works fine when the document is first created. However if
someone tries to edit the page (which is necessary at some points) the
parent of the page is wiped when the page is saved again. i.e. on clicking
'Save View' the parent value is wiped and set as the page itself. Any
ideas why this would be happening?
These are the buttons if there is something I am doing wrong here..
{{html}}
#if($context.action==view)
button style=width:100;height:65
onClick=window.location='$doc.getParentURL()'
bBack to Hub/b
/button
button style=width:100;height:65
onClick=window.location='$doc.getExternalURL('inline')'
bEdit Current/b
/button
button style=width:100;height:65
onClick=window.location='$doc.getExternalURL('delete')'
bDelete Current/b
/button
#end

Re: [xwiki-users] Can't contact farm administration wiki anymore
Hi Werner, Maybe it's an alias issue. Can you try to access the wiki with ip address instead of name? If you can reach the farm this way, check the WikiManager page and the alias given for Main Wiki (Domain Name column). It should be the same name as the one you were trying to reach.

Here's another (simpler?) way of doing this:

Re: [xwiki-users] Filesystem Storage vs Database Storage
Hi Chris, We (xwiki devs) would love to get such feedback too. We've developed and tested the feature but haven't used it in the wild with various configurations. So, has anyone used the filesystem attachment store already and do you have any feedback? Thanks -Vincent PS: Would be great if you could try it Chris. Make sure you backup your DB first just in case, if you want to roll back.

Re: [xwiki-users] Can't contact farm administration wiki anymore
Hi Guillaume, thanks a lot for your answer! It's working locally with wget now, which is better than anything I achieved so far. Alias is set as localhost without any domain. I would expect that to work, as this is forwarded from the apache frontend (it has for XWiki 2.x). On our staging system all worked out of the box (named xwiki, so it should w/o any alias :) ) and that had puzzled me. I think, I figured out now how to set the alias.

Re: [xwiki-users] Document parent name changing on edit.
I did just that and that was my problem. There was a : input type=hidden
name=parent value=${doc.name}/ That was setting the page parent its own
name (I was using $request.someVar to gather and set values on creating a
new page). I had figured it out last night but forgot to reply back to
myself saying it was solved.
On a different note, are the html buttons I am using the most efficient
(best method calls?) to edit, delete, and navigate to a parent page?
Thanks,
Adam

[xwiki-users] Cannot Configure WYSIWYG Editor in standalone installation of XE3.1
Hi, folks. I’m experimenting with a standalone installation of XE3.1 and trying to increase the control that users would have over the appearance of the pages they add. I’d love to do this primarily with the WYSIWYG editor, since that would be the most user-friendly avenue in my opinion. So I tried to add the “font” and “style” plugins and then make the associated changes in the tool bar, but nothing I do seems to have any effect on the WYSIWYG editor. When I leave the WYSIWYG Editor administration page and then return, my changes are still there… they just don’t appear in the editor itself. I’ve reviewed the WYSIWYG Editor Configuration page in the documentation, but nothing there has helped me. I’ve even taken a look in the templates/macros.vm file, but could not locate any of the lines the WYSIWYG Editor Configuration page said I should see. Can someone help me out?
