I was putting the document in the wrong method. Is it worth a FAQ entry? Are you aware of any performance difference between this approach and the one prosed by Sergiu?

This surely works, but it will imply to keep track of a change done in another XWiki configuration file. Of course is not big deal to add it to xwiki.cfg and hibernate.cfg.xml that have to be changed after each update. I think the approach proposed by Guillaume avoid it. Is there any performance difference between both methods I must take into account? Thanks!!

Then put the name of your page in the Velocity Macro Pages field (you can put only one page there for performance reasons). So you'll have : Velocity Macro Pages : XWiki.MyMacros Then save the page.
