ahhh, fourth attempt now. This time I intentionally removed the attachment to
see if it makes it through the spam blocker
Is there a place you the wiki I could upload the zip with the template?
Cheers!

ahhh, all these years and still miss the attachments :-P
I took the liberty to do some more updates to the template so you can actually see it
working with a "Tuscany theme" ;-)
I'm including some images and the css we use in Geronimo so you can see how to do some additional
filtering from all the data Confluence provides. More specifically, the "Added by...Last
edited by ..." are chopped off on the template. If you guys are using "News" on
Confluence, some of that info is chopped off on the .css
To have a better idea of what I mean compare these two links, the first one is
just pure, unaltered Confluence content. The second is after applying the
template and css.
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/GMOxSITE
http://cwiki.apache.org/GMOxSITE
Keep in mind the user permissions, if this will become your main web site then
only committers should have edit access.

Cheers!

Hi Hernan,
This is really great!. Its just about the help that I have been looking
for. Since we have a release round the corner we need to have the website
up quickly as that's our shop window to the world. So I am going to
certainly take your help for Confluence Admin.
The other link that you have attached is also quite useful and seems
like in
the next iteration we will certainly be exploring having multiple spaces.
Where is the template that you have mentioned? I don't see any attachment
here. Maybe you must zip and attach otherwise the MLs skip the attachments
from what I know.
I shall update the wiki now so that all pages have menus. After this I
shall work on the template (maybe you'd send it by then ;-)) and keep
things
in shape for you to simply go over and export.
Thank you so much for helping in this.

Hi Venkat,
I'm helping with the documentation and web site for the Geronimo project.
We recently moved the authoring of our web site to Confluence, now it
is a
lot easier to maintain.
If you folks don't have a Confluence admin I'll be happy to help updating
the templates.
I just sent you a sample template for the autoexport plugin, you may want
to make some updates to it ;-)
Let me know if you get stuck anywhere with the template. Once you have it
ready for the first test run let me know and I can update it in
Confluence
so everybody else can see how the website could look like ;-)
Not sure how is the process to get an admin account in confluence,
probably sending a req to infra@ or opening a JIRA, don't really know.
Keep in mind that if you folks decide to implement this approach you will
need to have more control on the TUSCANY space in Confluence. For the
Geronimo website (GMOxSITE space) we have only project's committers with
edit access. If you guys have only one space then you should start
planning
for having one for the web site and at least another for the formal wiki.
Does that make sense!?
Here is a doc I put together for how the Geronimo spaces (documentation
and web site) are organized.
