Re: [xwiki-users] global text search and replace
Thanks. Is there a pointer to using XWQL to limit the query? (I've only started using xwiki.) Definitely don't want it trolling through all spaces in the wiki. --Xiao Su On Fri, Jan 6, 2012 at 5:43 PM, Vincent Massol wrote: > > On Jan 6, 2012, at 10:39 AM, Guillaume Lerouge wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > one note: be careful when using something like this on your whole wiki. > It > > can have unexpected side effects (like replacing parts of words in place > > you didn't expect) and you'll have no quick way to rollback (you'll have > to > > do it manually, page by page). > > Good point, I've added the warning to the snippet page. > > @Jinyan: You can tune the XWQL query to limit it to a given space or > documents by adding for ex: > > "… and doc.space == 'yourspace' … " > "… and doc.name == 'name of the doc'… " > > -Vincent > > > Guillaume > > > > On Fri, Jan 6, 2012 at 10:36 AM, Jinyan Su wrote: > ___ users mailing list users@xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Good point, I've added the warning to the snippet page.
@Jinyan: You can tune the XWQL query to limit it to a given space or documents
by adding for ex:
"… and doc.space == 'yourspace' … "
"… and doc.name == 'name of the doc'… "

Re: [xwiki-users] global text search and replace
Hi,
one note: be careful when using something like this on your whole wiki. It
can have unexpected side effects (like replacing parts of words in place
you didn't expect) and you'll have no quick way to rollback (you'll have to
do it manually, page by page).
