Well newcomers just need to learn about the functions of the buttons by using them once or twice. Whereas the rest of us have to deal with the wasted space and distraction forever more :) Also, can't the concern about newcomers (and the introduction to the purpose of the buttons) be addressed with the tour application that now runs for new users? Honestly I don't think everyone is going to agree on this. Whatever the XWiki team chooses, will probably be fine. People will complain for a bit and just move on with life. So I think the team should just take the result from the poll and implement that as I think the topic could continue indefinitely :-) Kind regards, Mahomed Hussein Custodian Data Centre Email: maho...@custodiandc.com http://www.CustodianDC.com -Original Message- From: users [mailto:users-boun...@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Vincent Massol Sent: 28 April 2017 09:02 To: XWiki Users <users@xwiki.org> Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] [Proposal][UX] Feedback for Explicit Content Actions > On 28 Apr 2017, at 09:57, Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) <vali...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On Fri, Apr 28, 2017 at 10:47 AM, Clément Aubin > <clement.au...@xwiki.com> > wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> On 04/27/2017 11:58 AM, Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) wrote: >>> Some summary until now: >>> P2: Craig, Olivier >>> P4: Mahomed, Steffen, Jesse, Miroslav >> >> As a «fresh» user, I would prefer P2, mostly because I don’t think >> that every newcomer will have the intuition to look at the top-right >> corner of the page for its options.

I agree for new users but not for advanced. Users who’ve used those button just once know about them and don’t need the labels.

Re: [xwiki-users] [Proposal][UX] Feedback for Explicit Content Actions
This P2 is much nicer, but I still prefer P4. I can see why some people like P2 as it is more descriptive. But, P4 still matches the current icons better (and I am guessing not many people have complained that they don't know what those mysterious buttons in the top right are for.) Additionally there's a tool tip when you hover over the buttons and once you know what the button does, you don't actually need the label. The icons are pretty universal as well. i.e. a Pencil indicates editing and a Plus sign indicates "adding". I don't suppose this could be a wiki wide configurable option? :) Or maybe something that can be turned on/off with a class in the skin.

Re: [xwiki-users] [Proposal][UX] Feedback for Explicit Content Actions
P2 is great because it is descriptive and probably helpful on wikis with a lot of users who are "less technical" or "slightly technophobic". P4 is great because it is compact and I think even technophobic users will understand what the buttons do after the first few tries. So my vote is for P4. Regarding "combine the actions and add category labels". That looks awesome and much more intuitive.

I don't really use small viewports but if I did, my vote would be for http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/Proposal/IdeaVisibleSave/after.png The design is clean, flows and is intuitive. (Unless I've misunderstood you, and you are saying this is the way it looks now :) ) I have noticed that you have lost "Preview" from the compacted bar.

Re: [xwiki-users] display page title and name(url) while creating a page
I was just mocking up some samples of my recommendation (which I think possibly lines up with Vincent's points 2 and 3), when I realised that there already exists the UI to edit the Page URL. It's just not called that and I didn't remember seeing it. But I see that's probably what Caty was referring to :-) I feel like I am just catching up to the conversation :-) So just to re-cap 1) You can currently edit the location, but this is only for advanced users. (Maybe this can be a Wiki-wide setting instead of being tied to advanced users, even if it can only be set in the config file - screenshot https://snag.gy/vS4f3j.jpg). Personally I don't see why this needs to be an advanced user only feature, because if a user can create a page and decide what its parent page is, why can't they decide on the URL name? A wiki-wide setting will allow the Admin to make this decision on an all or nothing basis (rather than just the "nothing" option we have now). 2) The word "Name" and the description "Name of the new page" are not very clear. (I have made a recommendation in this screenshot - https://snag.gy/dlUK96.jpg) 3) I love the speakingurl suggestion and I hope you do implement it. I think it will give the best of both worlds. It will generate nicer URLs. I also agree with Vincent, many of the users *do* care about the URL. For example, we share URLs in emails and chat etc. and cross reference in documentation. This is one of the many uses where a nice URL is actually useful. Slightly off-topic, it's nice to see you (the XWiki devs) actually taking this seriously and discussing it here. It's very refreshing. So just wanted to say thanks for that.

Yes there are 2 aspects. The built-in part is easy by doing 1) and having a default implementation that doesn’t do any transformation. Then an extension can contribute a new component overriding the default one to use a different algorithm. And this new API can be used in different places of XWiki (Create page, rename page, AWM-generated entries, etc). That’s mostly what I meant by 1) below. But for me this is not enough we also need to show the generated URL in the create page UI for example and that’s 2). Right now we don’t have an agreement from all xwiki devs that they’re ok to go with showing the generated URL hence the UIXP idea. If everyone agrees then the problem goes away and it can be built in the default UIs. There’s still the question of allowing the user to edit the last part of the URL but let’s consider it as a detail FTM. > The proposed first point, to have component and a script service for > converting strings to url-friendly strings, is the must have.

Re: [xwiki-users] display page title and name(url) while creating a page
The fact that the default would be “Never” in your proposal above wouldn’t help that much since by default users wouldn’t be able to control the URLs and thus you’d need to educate everyone that they need to turn this on. It’s quite similar to telling your users to be Advanced users. Sorry, I think I wasn't clear. I meant that it would be a Wiki-wide setting (hence being a setting in the XWiki Administration). So changing this option would apply the same option to every user.

Re: [xwiki-users] display page title and name(url) while creating a page
This is quite an interesting discussion and I'd like to add a few points if you don't mind. When we first started using XWiki, our users did comment about the really long URLs that were being generated from the Title. But as our XWiki is internal only for documentation, I kind of brushed it off with "That's just the way it works". But I agree that in some cases it would be good to be able to edit the resulting URL. Both for us, and obviously for other users. :-) In regards of how to achieve this, I'd like to propose a half-way house/compromise. Firstly, create an Admin option in the Admin control panel to the effect of: "Allow users to edit the Page URL when creating new pages" - Always - Optional - Never (Default) Then on the create page, you would have the following "minor" changes (I say minor because changes are always minor to the person who is not doing the programming ;-) ) If the Admin option is "Never" then the create page remains as it is. If the Admin option is "Optional" then there should be a link/button under Title that is called "Edit Page URL". This would be an extra button on the current create page form. When the user clicks the button/link, they then get another text box in which to specify the URL parameter. If the Admin option is "Always" then the create page will show "Page Title" (as it is currently) and will also show the "Page URL" text box. Ideally, this Page URL text box should be auto-populated with the proposed auto-generated name from the title (unless the Page URL is edited before the Page Title). Obviously you'll have to do a few other checks to make sure it's a valid entry for a URL in both cases (but you may have this already from the old version where both options always showed). I also recommend that the current description text for Title is changed from the very short "Title of the new page" to "This is Title Heading shown at the top of the document when viewed. The Page URL is auto-generated from this title" Kind regards, Mahomed Hussein Custodian Data Centre Email: maho...@custodiandc.com http://www.CustodianDC.com -Original Message- From: users [mailto:users-boun...@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Vincent Massol Sent: 21 April 2017 12:16 To: XWiki Users <users@xwiki.org> Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] display page title and name(url) while creating a page Hi Caty, > On 21 Apr 2017, at 12:44, Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) <vali...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Let's see what variants we have: > > 1.

This is not exactly what is suggested either by Vishal nor by me :) What we suggested is to let the user enter the URL name and title. Actually and to be more precise what I was suggesting was to continue to let the user enter the title but to show the generated URL as it’s done in AWM.

[xwiki-users] CKEditor and Lightbox Macro Issue
Hi We’ve come across a slight issue with the Lightbox macro when using CKEditor 1.12. I thought I’d post to the group before logging it on Jira. Basically, the issue is that when you go into CKEditor, the Macro encompasses all the text that follows it [1]. I have marked up all the images so please look at them as it should make it easier to see what I mean. Looking at the source, it appears that the closing DIV for the macro is being put at the end of all the following content [2]. If you then go into Source view, it deletes all the text after the lightbox macro [3]. If you edit using the original Wiki editor, you can see all the text is there correctly [4] You can put in a terrible workaround (this was more an experiment than a solution to be honest) by going into Wiki edit mode, and adding 2 extra line breaks and a closing DIV tag inside the HTML tags [5]. This then allows CKEditor to render correctly and you can view/edit the content after the light box without any issues. [6]. Sadly this isn’t a solution and I hope someone can help with a proper solution. It seems to me that this is something that needs changing in CKEditor, rather than in the Lightbox Macro as rendering of the images and lightbox is fine when viewing the documents, and it seems the Macro JS code does not get executed when editing in CKEditor. Please let me know if you need any other info and I hope someone can help. Thanks.

http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/CKEDITOR-148 is fixed but not released. It will be
included in version 1.13, bu the latest version available right now is 1.12 as
can be seen on
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/CKEditor+Integration .
You need to redo the steps you describe above after you upgrade to version 1.13.

Re: [xwiki-users] Adding Macro as Buttons in CKEditor
Hi Marius
I've tried to apply these changes with no luck I'm afraid.
Here are the steps I've taken:
1) Gone to Administer Wiki > Applications: WYSIWYG Editor > CKEditor and pasted
the following below the comments in the "Advanced Configuration" box:
config['xwiki-macro'] = config['xwiki-macro'] || {};
config['xwiki-macro'].insertButtons = [
'documentTree',
{
commandId: 'xwiki-macro-html-dirty',
macroCall: {
name: 'html',
parameters: {
clean: false,
wiki: true
}
}
}
];
2) I then went to Administration > Look & Feel : Presentation > Customise Color
Theme > Advanced and then pasted the following CSS at the bottom:
a.cke_button.cke_button__xwiki-macro-documenttree >
span.cke_button_icon.cke_button__xwiki-macro documenttree_icon {
font-family: 'Glyphicons Halflings';
position: relative;
top: 1px;
}
.cke_button_icon.cke_button__xwiki-macro-documenttree_icon::before {
content: "\e199";
display: inline-block;
text-align: center;
width: 16px;
}
3) Edited a document and pressed Shift + F5 but nothing appeared on the toolbar.
4) Tried a different browser
5) Used Developer Tools in Chrome and can see both my changes in the relevant
files (CKEditor/Config and skins/Flamingo/style.css)
6) I have tried different configurations from
http://docs.ckeditor.com/#!/api/CKEDITOR.config such as config.toolbarLocation
= 'bottom'; in step 1 above and I can see the config is being applied.
I had also already upgraded to 9.1.2 before trying to test this.
I can also see "xwiki-macro" as an available option in the "disabled plugins"
drop down (Note that it is *not* disabled, it's just there as an option, which
I assume is a good thing as it means the plugin is available).
Any ideas what I've missed or what else I could check please? Thanks.
Kind regards,
Mahomed Hussein

[xwiki-users] Adding Macro as Buttons in CKEditor
Hi With the editor in XWiki < v9.0.0 (GWT Editor), I could add different buttons and macros onto the toolbar by modifying the configuration and adding “macro:macroName” as a toolbar “feature”. Has anyone got a simple step by step instructions for adding the same thing in CKEditor? I’ve tried looking at the documentation, but it doesn’t immediately or easily relate to the macros/add-ins (e.g. the lightbox macro/plugin is one we use a lot). Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: [xwiki-users] Upgrading xwiki
You should probably do a full-backup as per the backup instructions and then let the upgrade wizard handle the conversion/transfer for you. If you are installing a new instance of XWiki and want to restore the old files/documents, then you need to say that so people can help you. As for "what is merge copy", Vincent's response was very clear. If you don't understand what "merge" means, then this link will help - https://lmgtfy.com/?q=define%3A+merge Basically it means to combine the old configuration files and new configuration files. You do this "manually" by comparing the differences between the old and the new files and ending up with a new configuration that has your custom changes from the old file (where relevant) plus the new settings from the new file. In most cases though if you are doing an in-place upgrade, the wizard does this for you (or at least makes it easier). That being said, I agree with Cuong Hoang, you probably need to get someone with a bit more knowledge to do this for you.

I am trying to copy the files in older version and paste it in newer version seems it is not copying and nothings change in newer version, that's confusing me.

Re: [xwiki-users] New installation - top menu bar missing?
Hi Patrick When we started using XWiki, we also used the spaces to separate documents for different departments (Accounts, Sales, HR, Tech etc.). The upgrade from spaces to nested (I can't remember at which version) was a bit confusing at first. But basically we now have something similar to: Home -- Accounts -- Sales -- HR -- Tech Where the pages under Home are top level pages using the "Dashboard" template (I think this dashboard template may have changed after 8.1 but I haven't experimented yet). I then created groups for Accounts-Read, Accounts-Write, Accounts-Admin (repeat for each department). Then go into the "top-level" page and administer the page and go to "Page and Children" rights. You can then set the permissions for the relevant group. Once your users are registered, you simply add them to the relevant group and XWiki handles the security for you :) You may need to experiment with the permissions because I found that I also had to give permissions at the Wiki level (Administer Wiki > Users & Groups > Rights) and then further lock it down on the "per page" permissions. Tip: Use different browsers and incognito/private mode so you can test permission application in one browser and run as Admin in the other to change permissions. I also use the "Panels.Navigation" in the right panel to navigate the top level pages (Administer Wiki > Look & Feel > Page Elements > Display Right Panel = Yes, Panels displayed on the right = Panels.Navigation) I hope that helps in some way.

You can see each individual page as a space actually :) While I appreciate the streamlined implementation - just one concept for content separation - would it be possible to get the "space" look and feel back? I.e. remove the topmost hierarchy level from the left navigation tree and put those items at the top? And switch the left navigation depending on the top item selected? Simple? Hardcore customization, i.e. paid support? Impossible? Thanks Patrick

Re: [xwiki-users] Create Page Button not showing v8.1
Thanks for responding and confirming Patrick. Based on your information I went digging and found that at some point I (or possibly the XWiki default) set XWikiAllGroup Edit rights to Deny under Administer Wiki > Rights I set it to "allow edit" on the XWikiAllGroup and now the permission shows up. I've then made sure the user is member of the group of the page with the Edit rights and it seems to work. I need to do more testing and waiting for screaming. Anyone from XWiki team care to expand on how we should be setting security?

[xwiki-users] Create Page Button not showing v8.1
Resending as plaintext Hi All Hopefully someone can help with this issue. We are running 8.1 and some users are not able to see the “create page” button. This is what I am expecting: http://pasteboard.co/6y8jirpqd.png Instead, the user sees this: http://pasteboard.co/6y9FK2KQT.png So I assumed it must be a permissions issue. So I checked that the Group had the correct permissions to Edit (in this case I am using the Sandbox as an example, but it applies to all other top level pages – what were once spaces). As you can see below, the XWikiAllGroup has View and Edit permissions and the user can certainly see and edit the page. But I was sure that having “Edit” also meant the ability to “add” pages. If “adding” is a separate permission, please tell me where I can find this. http://pasteboard.co/6yZBCg4ye.png I have also tried giving the user directly ALL the permissions and still the user doesn’t get the “add” button. Yet if I browse directly to http://xwiki.local:8080/xwiki/bin/create/Sandbox/ I get the create page and I can successfully create/edit/save the page. I have also tried: • Giving all permissions to all the groups the user is a member of • Different combinations of different groups • Removing permissions for all groups and just giving the user permission directly • Looking through the mailing list for any reported issues (though it was a quick browse so I may have missed it). • Checked that I do not have any overriding *.vm files attached to the skin that would cause this The next step will be to upgrade to 8.2 to see if this resolves it, but I am not hopeful.

Normally, the should be located in Dashboard.WebHome, not in Main.WebHome (which used to just include Dashboard.WebHome). When upgrading, there is a chance that your homepage will be replaced by the new homepage (if you did not really touch Main.WebHome), but your Dashboard.WebHome page should look the same as before (again, if that`s where your customizations are actually located). You can then edit the new homepage and re-add the include to the Dashboard.WebHome page if that is what you wish. There is also a chance (if you`ve edited Main.WebHome) that you might get a prompt in the DIstribution Wizard asking you what to do with your Main.WebHome page changes (keep them or overwrite them with the new version of the page). Whatever the case, just make sure to do a backup (xar export) of both Main.WebHome and Dashboard.WebHome before upgrading, just to be safe and to easily restore anything that the upgrade may change on your wiki.

Awesome work as usual. Please can you just confirm that if I upgrade from 8.1 to 8.2 that my current "Home" dashboard page won't be overwritten by the new page? I've got some customisations on that page that I don't want to lose (particularly as users now know how to use the wiki and expect to see what they currently see on my customised page). Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] xWiki 8.1 ignoring custom skin
Hi All OK, I've done a bit more "digging/experimenting". What I have done now: 1) Deleted the "Skin" documents in Main and in Xwiki "spaces/pages" (p.s. I miss the spaces concept :) ) - This doesn't really seem to do a good job of deleting the pages. There seems to be a "blank" placeholder for the document. 2) I created a copy of the flamingo directory in /usr/lib/xwiki/skins/ and named it CDCSkin2 3) I then set the Wiki Skin to be "CDCSkin2" (Administer Wiki > Presentation > Skin and then I checked the different pages. I noticed that the "Main" page still ignored the skin, but all the other pages were loading the skin correctly. So for example http://xwiki.local:8080/xwiki/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin=Presentation = Working http://xwiki.local:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Accounts/ = Working http://xwiki.local:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ = Not working Even setting the skin directly on the Main page (Administer Page > Presentation) was not working. After further investigation and testing, I noticed that this was because the Custom Theme was set for that page. If I set the Logo in the Theme, then it applied correctly everywhere. So it seems that the Theme logo now overrides the skin logo. But, if I set the Skin in Administer Wiki > Presentation > Skin to be something like Main.CDCSkin3, I can see that any code in the Skin document gets executed as per http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/Skins BUT the logo from the skin doesn't get applied. It defaults to the logo in the Theme. So basically I went down a rabbit's hole thinking the skin was not working because the logo was not being applied, but in fact the skin was working, but the logo was being picked from the Theme because @logo in the theme was still set to default.

Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki 8.1 returning error 404
To be fair, I normally look at the release notes and I had actually searched
the mailing list (hence I found the xwiki site was down). But it seems my
search got me the release notes for RC1 which didn't have this info.
As for why java didn't get updated, it seems that OpenJDK-8 is not available
for Ubuntu 14.04.
Will xWiki work if I install Oracle Java?

Sorry, I know everyone is busy and Vincent and Thomas have tried to help. I am quite desperate though. Looking at this bit of log, it seems at some point Tomcat has tried to load the site and was looking for the 8.0 jar files. How can I tell it to look for the 8.1 jar files?

Re: [xwiki-users] Parsing external JSON with Velocity in XWiki
Thanks for the quick response. I had looked at the VelocityTools page several
times before posting. Unfortunately it wasn't very useful to me as a beginner
as there weren't any examples of how to use it (and I couldn't deduce the
syntax and requirements from looking at the source of the tools).
Anyway, this page may have a groovy example that might work for me. I just
haven't had the time to test it today (and it seems the need to read the JSON
may now been cancelled anyway) -

Thanks again for the help.

There’s a $jsontool you can use in velocity, see
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Velocity+Module#HVelocityTools
Otherwise you can also use groovy instead which supports reading and parsing
JSON by default. Several examples are on extensions.xwiki.org.
Thanks

[xwiki-users] Parsing external JSON with Velocity in XWiki
Hi
I started off on something I thought would be simple, but my limited knowledge
is failing me and Google isn’t bringing up anything useful.
Basically, I have a url that returns JSON content (for the sake of this example
– assume the url is https://status.com/api/status.json)
The content returned by the URL is:
{"page":{"id":"9jyl5nk7mszv","name":"Custodian
DataCentres","url":"http://status.custdc.net","updated_at":"2016-04-19T15:45:36.626+01:00"},"status":{"indicator":"none","description":"All
Systems Operational"}}
What I wanted to do was to simply read that JSON and then process the values
and possibly output something like:
Status: All Systems Operational
Last Update: 2016-04-19T15:45:36
So far I have managed to get the URL content with:
{{velocity}}
#set($jsoncontent = $xwiki.getURLContent(‘https://status.com/api/status.json’))
$jsoncontent
{{/velocity}}
This is where I get stuck. How do I get the $jsonconent into an array or
somehow read the values?
Apologies for the basic question, but I hope someone can either point me in the
right direction or provide an example I can work from. Thanks.

Re: [xwiki-users] Nested pages livetable
Hi Vincent Thanks. The viewer=children option is a usable workaround for now. The SpaceIndex option was slightly nicer because it was sortable on document title (not just location). I was going to try editing XWiki.LiveTableResults but I couldn't work out where that was (which probably means I shouldn't touch it :-) ) Thanks again. I look forward to the final fix. Though 8.1 milestone 1 looks like will change more of the stuff we actually came to like in XWiki. But such is life. Thanks for the hard work.

Re: [xwiki-users] Nested pages livetable
This issue has kind of bitten us as well. The table format of listing all documents in a particular space is really useful (regardless of nested pages or not). Sadly the spaceIndex (which I think is slightly different but related to this) doesn't list the new type pages.

Re: [xwiki-users] Content
Vincent, I think from his description, he is wanting to know if there's a way to make .csr files prompt to download instead of displaying the contents in the browser. I don't think this is an XWiki issue per se. But there might be a way of changing the header/filetype descriptor for .csr files? Otherwise I think the only other solution is to tell the webserver to not serve the .csr files and make them downloadable instead. This is similar behaviour to text files. They will display the content in the browser by default unless you change the content type header or tell the web server to allow it to force to download. Unfortunately I don't know how to make XWiki do this (or tomcat for that matter).

Re: [xwiki-users] User forgot password link unavailable
It's not a bug, it's a feature I must admit that made me chuckle :) But seriously, saying it's a feature would be like saying you can't get to the login page because you've blocked unauthenticated users. Is there a simple way of allowing just this one page (and possibly the forgot username page) to be viewed by unauthenticated users, without allowing unauthenticated users full access? On a related note, if using the block unauthenticated users feature is not recommended, then what is the recommended way of blocking access to documents by unauthenticated users?

Re: [xwiki-users] User activity log
Hi I had also asked for something like this when we first started using XWiki. Unfortunately the answer I also got was that it wasn't possible. Have a look at the thread for some useful info that was given - http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2015-March/030119.html Vincent's idea of having a check-sheet attached to each document would be an ideal setup. But this will no doubt require some development. I'd love to give it a try but not enough time or knowledge of velocity/groovy/java to implement this. As I see it, to be useful, the checkbox would have to meet these criteria (in case anyone feels like giving it a try LOL) - Be able to specify users/groups that need to read/accept the document - The person reading should only have access to check their own box next to their name - When they check the box, it should store a date/time stamp and become read-only. Sounds simple but I doubt it is very easy to implement.

Re: [xwiki-users] Printing pages as displayed
Hi Clemens Thanks for the response. quoteThis should work, unless you have secured the wiki in the adminstration with the black checkboxes preventing any anonymous access, independent of view rights. /quote Unfortunately this is exactly what I have. It's important that even if users have access to our LAN, only authenticated users can view the documents. Interestingly, if I use the default skin style.css then it works fine. In the meantime, I have cheated and replaced style.css in /usr/lib/xwiki/skins/flamingo I am assuming I need to create my own skin folder and not use the skin app (though to be completely honest, I am a bit confused which is the recommended way). Kind regards, Mahomed -Original Message- From: users [mailto:users-boun...@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Clemens Klein-Robbenhaar Sent: 15 May 2015 12:18 To: users@xwiki.org Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Printing pages as displayed Hi Mahomed, I just know an answer about the last one ... I hope the rest will be answered by others. If you want your skin customizations visible on the login page, too, then you need to make sure the anonymous user can view the page with the modifications. Giving the XWikiAllGroup view permisisons is not enough, but you are in the right place; if you look at the top of of the list showing all groups and their permission, you should find a button to switch from groups to users - there you can give the anonymous user view rights, too. This should work, unless you have secured the wiki in the adminstration with the black checkboxes preventing any anonymous access, independent of view rights. If you have done the latter, then the wiki content is fully protected, including skin customizations, and unfortunately you cannot have both a wiki completely closed to anonymous visitors and still have them view that single attachment on the login page; you would have to patch things by editing the webapp on the file system directly. Cheers Clemens That’s cool. Thanks Vincent ☺ I finally got some time (and was forced to) look at implementing changes to the print formatting. I had some mixed results. I’ll document what I’ve done below and the bits I am having some trouble with and hopefully someone can provide me with further tips. 1. I managed to format the PDF Export output by attaching a pdf.css file to my custom skin application (as per http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Skin+Application). This has mostly worked for straightforward items like headers and font. But I am having trouble with some of my tables and it would help if I could reduce the margins of the page. QUESTION: Is there a simple way to modify the margins (I need narrower margins) 2. I tried to format the printed output but found that attaching a print.css to my skin application did very little/nothing to format the output. I tested by creating an article in the Sandbox, Clicking “More Actions” “Print Preview” Press Ctrl+P. This was testing in Chrome and Firefox with the same effect/results. 3. I then found that there were several @Media=”Print” sections in the Style.css file. So I downloaded this, removed the @Media sections and re-attached my new style.css to my skin application. This now allowed my formatting in the attached print.css to take effect. So this now works and looks as I would expect. But I don’t really like the idea of having my own style.css as it’ll make it more difficult to take advantage of any new formatting changes that may be added later (unless I’ve missed the point here) 4. I have locked down the xwiki so that only registered and logged in users can view any of the documents. Unfortunately this now means that style.css is not accessible on the login page. I have modified the access rights on the skin application and given view permissions to XWikiAllGroup but I suspect I need to somehow give access to guests but I can’t see how to do that.

Hi Marius
Thank you very much for this info. It is very helpful. Unfortunately I may take

Hi
I have a problem where users want to highlight text in the WYSIWIG editor and
press a button on the toolbar to automatically add the {{code}}, {{warning}}
etc. start and end tags to the text. I know how to add a macro button and to
style it. But the problem with the macro is that it pops up a form with a
text area that you then need to fill in with text you want to put inside the
tags. The behaviour I am looking for is similar to highlighting text and then
pressing the Bold button on the toolbar.
I have done some digging/searching/googling and found the simpledittoolbar.vm
and I’ve customised this and added the copy to my skin. I have added the
following code in the relevant sections and it works perfectly when I click
EditWiki but it doesn’t show on the toolbar when I click EditWYSIWIG. I am
running XWiki 7.0
simpledittoolbar.vm affects only the wiki editor.
#set($discard = $syntax10Elements.add(['code', '{{code}}', '{{/code}}',
'page_code']))
#set($discard = $syntax20Elements.add(['code', '{{code}}', '{{/code}}',
'page_code']))
#set($discard = $confluence10Elements.add(['code', '{{code}}', '{{/code}}',
'page_code']))
So any idea how I can make the button show on the WYSIWIG toolbar?
Alternatively how do I make the macro execute on the highlighted text?
It's not simple. You have two options:
(1) Put a button on the toolbar with something like
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/WYSIWYG+Editor+Module#HAdjusttheeditorUIfromaJavaScriptExtension
then listen on click and use
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/WYSIWYG+Editor+Module#HWysiwygEditor
#getSelectionRange() to access the selected text and then
#getCommandManager() to
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/WYSIWYG+Editor+Module#HCommandManager
#execute the 'macroInsert' command. The complex part is to understand
the format of the command parameter. You can check
https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwiki-platform-wysiwyg/xwiki-platform-wysiwyg-client/src/main/java/org/xwiki/gwt/wysiwyg/client/plugin/macro/MacroCall.java
.
(2) Write a plugin for the WYSIWYG editor from Java, but for this
you'll have to recompile the editor and thus you'll end up with a
custom editor, which is harder to maintain over time and may cause
upgrade headaches.
Hope this helps,
Marius
Thanks in advance.

Mahomed

Re: [xwiki-users] Clear them all! :p
I'm sure we can debate this all day. XWiki is very simple for end users to use. The actual purpose of the wiki (to allow people to create/edit/view articles/pages) is simple and straight-forward. I have everyone in our organisation using it successfully, and trust me, some of the end users should not be allowed near computers. But they managed to use the system for its purpose just fine. That doesn't mean that they can all install, configure, update and customise XWiki. I'll give you another analogy. XWiki is like a fine car. Cars are easy to use and drive by almost anyone. But that doesn't mean everyone can fix a car. Even if you know a little bit about how engines work and how to change the oil etc. Some jobs just have to be left to the professionals. XWiki is the same. Everyone can use it very easily. But when it comes to the advanced stuff, if you can't understand the excellent documentation, and no one can help you on the mailing list then the problem is not with XWiki. I consider myself a very competent engineer and developer, but there are some things that even I find quite advanced in XWiki. That goes to show how powerful it is (and what a great job the developers have done). Anyway I don’t think this is too constructive for the mailing list so I will stop here. You are entitled to your opinion and I am to mine (I think XWiki is great). If you don't like XWiki then I hope you find something that suits you better. That's the beauty of the internet and open source. You can always find something that suits you or make your own :) Kind regards, Mahomed -Original Message- From: users [mailto:users-boun...@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Pascal BASTIEN Sent: 22 April 2015 22:23 To: XWiki Users; Maciej Fokt Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] Clear them all! :p Hello,I'm sorry, I'm not agree with you : a powerfull system must hide the systems complexity...

Re: [xwiki-users] How to hide this?
Cool. I wasn't able to completely recreate it, but the issue seems to be with the extra dropdown-split-left. I wonder if deleting that bit in the inspector renders the button correctly. The only thing I can think of is that a customer skin/theme or skin extension has been installed. I don't think this would be easy for someone else to troubleshoot without access to the live code. My suggestion is to disable/restore all skin/theme/skin extensions until the root cause is found.

Hi Ricardo Thanks. I'd already checked the CSS out (I use Chrome's Developer tools but will checkout firebug) and was hoping there was a built in way or a pre-written extension to save some time.

Hi As anyone else got any tips/suggestions/advice/links on a better way of restricting access to document and even spaces? The sub-wiki idea may work, but it's a LOT of work (even though we just started using the Wiki, people have fallen in love with XWiki and we now have quite an amount data in the system).

Re: [xwiki-users] User Permissions Issue
Hi Thanks for the response. What you have shown seems to work partially for us. The issue happens if the user is a member of a group for a different space. So taking your example a bit further: Space1Admin - ticked all Space1Editor - ticked View, Comment and Edit Space1Viewer - ticked View and Comment Space2Admin - ticked all Space2Editor - ticked View, Comment and Edit Space2Viewer - ticked View and Comment If user is member of Space1Viewer and Space2Admin then the user usually ends up with no access to Space2. This is where our problem comes up because we need some users to be members of multiple spaces.

Re: [xwiki-users] User Permissions Issue
Hi I've tried reading through the security and rights articles but I'm afraid it hasn't really helped make things any clearer for me. At the moment I have this very strange scenario where adding/removing users to a group doesn't immediately (or at all) apply the permission unless I add and remove XWikiAllGroup to the group and then remove it. http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7594521/sales_rights.png Above is how the permissions are applied to the Sales space. I then add my MH Test user to one group (e.g. sales_write) and then try and refresh in Firefox (Using private mode and clearing the local cache. Using refresh=1 doesn't help either). Only once did I manage to make the user able to see the space. But, if I add the test user to the group and then add XWikiAllGroup and refresh then I can see the space. If I then remove XWikiAllGroup from the group, I can STILL see the space and make changes etc. I have allowed XWikiAllGroup View Permission in a different group called General-Read which I created in order to allow read-access to the General space. It appears to me that XWiki is seeing the user as part of XWikiAllGroup in General-Read and see that General-Read doesn't have explicit allow or deny and then ties with the permission of allow in Sales_Read and apparently Deny wins? Below are screenshots of how the General-* has its permissions applied in the Sales space. http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7594521/general_permissions_in_sales.png I have gone further and removed XWikiAllGroup from General-Read and I can then immediately see the permissions in the Sales-* groups being applied. If I then add the Sales-* groups as sub-groups of General-Read, then I get the same behaviour, i.e. user of Sales* gets denied permission. As I write this, I'm starting to think/understand that this is the designed behaviour and my only solution will be to use Sub-Wikis instead of spaces. So for example Sales sub-wiki and General sub-wiki. Users would be members/registered to the main wiki, but I could then create groups in the sub-wiki for Read, Read/Write, Admin and it wouldn't get over-ridden/collide with permissions/user in other groups. Can anyone tell me if I'm on the right track or point me at some documentation or provide some tips please?

The safest for this is usually to have a test server which is a clone of the production server on which you do the upgrade and test it before doing it on the production server.

Re: [xwiki-users] DocumentTree doesn't open to a node
Just a suggestion as I've only just started using this feature myself, but try:
openTo=document:xwiki:Revit Mechanical.WebHome

Subject: [xwiki-users] DocumentTree doesn't open to a node
Hello!
I'm having difficulties setting up a tree for my wiki. I'm using
DocumntTree. The tree starts off with the only space (Revit Mechanical) and
not open node to show the pages. I believe I have syntax errors but can't
quite fix it
Code:
{{documentTree showWikis=true showSpaces=true showTranslations=false
showAttachments=false showChildDocuments=true
root=space:xwiki:Revit Mechanical openTo=space:xwiki:Revit Mechanical/}}
Here is a screenshot of how it opens up:
http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7594472/DocumentTree.png
Here is how I want it to open up:
http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7594472/TreeCorrect.png
Sorry for asking so many questions, I'm not good at this.
Regards,
Michael

[xwiki-users] Restrict Access Rights to Admin Users only
Looks like I'm keeping the mailing list server busy today :) I have managed to hide the Admin rights/objects/classes part of the edit button by modifying line 9 of menus_content.vm (and attached it to my custom skin) Changed it from: #if($isAdvancedUser) To: #if($isAdvancedUser $hasAdmin) Now I just need to work-out how to remove that from the document index and if the user tries to go to the link directly. I also need to then workout how to stop advanced users from being able to create their own skins. Hmmm. Time to take a break I think.

Re: [xwiki-users] Performance Frustrations
Hi All Just a brief update. Our XWiki has been running fine for the last few days with at least 3 people using it. Hopefully it stays that way. One thing I noticed is that it just magically started responding faster the next day. The other thing that I found was that I had missed out configuring the dns servers when I configured the static IP (it was a long day). So it is quite possible that the background process that Marius suggested may have had something to do with a site lookup or name resolution or update (this is purely speculation on my part - but hopefully it helps someone). Thanks again for this great system. Lots to learn still :) Kind regards, -Original Message- From: Mahomed Hussein Sent: 10 March 2015 16:42 To: XWiki Users Subject: [nosig] RE: [xwiki-users] Performance Frustrations Hi Thanks for the responses.
