Hi I found that in xwiki core api, there is a class DocumentSection. Is it possible to use it (or am I permitted to use it) directly to create documents. If yes, how should I use it ? Regards Roopesh

Hi Can we make "Comments" functionality in xwiki editable? Can we restrict the delete option in a "Comment" to be enabled to the administrator only. Regards Roopesh

Renaming Spaces and moving pages between spaces
by Gunter Leeb 17 Apr '07

17 Apr '07

Hi, Is there a way to rename an entire space with all references updated? Or, is there a way to move a number of pages from one space to another with all references updated? In our experimental XWiki installation we dropped all pages into Main. Now, I intend to structure the site a little differend and I would like to move a number of pages from one space to another or rename an entire space. I am happy to do this also in a xar if there are tools, scripts etc. available to support me with a consistent replacing.

Reduced window area for editing
by shivshan 16 Apr '07

Hi Am using the latest beta version with panels on the right. When i edit a page however, a big portion of the right hand side screen is taken up by the panel, with Xwiki document information and the parent and tag information. This is a problem, especially when typing long paragraphs or with wide images, since i have to constantly scroll to see what i have typed. Is this by design? I have attached the screenshot. Thanks and looking forward to the 1.0 release, Shiva http://www.nabble.com/file/7900/MWSnap017.jpg -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Reduced-window-area-for-editing-tf3587944.html#a10026… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

xwiki as help system and external mappings
by RonaldH 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

Greetings all, I would like to use the xwiki system as a help system. The idea is that I have a system where on each page (defined by an unique url, like listContacts.html) there is a help icon. When clicking on the icon the user, will be directed to the xwiki system with the parameter the url that the user was on. This parameter should then be looked up in the xwiki system to see if there is a page for this and shown to the user if exists or asked if he/she wants to make a page. How should I achieve this? I am an experienced java programming so some hacking is no problem, however at the moment I dont have a clue how to handle this using xwiki. Any tips or pointers are appreciated.

Document Templates
by shivshan 16 Apr '07

16 Apr '07

Hi I am a relative newcomer to Xwiki, and still getting used to Classes, Objects etc. However, i have an urgent need for a knowledge base that is running on Xwiki. In each space, i want any new page created to have the same structure. For ex: 1 XYZ Application Introduction in to XYZ in a few sentences 1.1 How to use XYZ 1.1.1 Login 1.1.1 Edit 1.1.1 Save 1.1 Troubleshooting 1.1.1 Login Not working 1.1.1 Save not working 1.1 References Once a new page in this space is created, this code will be available by default. The user then modifies content retaining the structure. This should be possible but i am not able to figure out how. These pages don't have any forms so am not sure whether i should use the includeform macro. Any pointers to existing documentation would be very helpful. Thanks Shiva -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Document-Templates-tf3585218.html#a10018588 Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
