[xwiki-users] XEM: Allowing non-admin users to create new wikis
by Stanley Laufer 17 Oct '11

17 Oct '11

We're setting up a private XWiki wiki farm for our department. Everything is working perfectly except for the fact that non-admin users cannot create new wikis. We'd prefer to allow registered users to create wikis on their own, without involving the admin. Currently, when a non-admin user attempts to create a new wiki, they receive the following error: Wiki "testwiki9" creation failed: Error number 9001 in 5: Exception in plugin xpn.xwiki.plugin.wikimanager.Wiki Manager Plugin?<https://sliswiki.sjsu.edu/bin/edit/com.xpn.xwiki.plugin.wikimanager/WikiMan…>: You dont have right to create wiki Is there any way to customize XWiki to grant non-admin users the right to create new wikis. In the case of a private wiki farm, where our user base is known, it would seem safe to do this. Thanks in advance for any feedback. -- Stanley E.

[xwiki-users] Italian translation xwiki core
by AngeloG 17 Oct '11

17 Oct '11

For italian users that are interested in updating their italian resource file, please visit http://l10n.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/L10N/TranslationRules_it , where I posted my last version (3.1 and 3.2) of ApplicationResources_it.properties file. For xwiki developers: it is still too much time consuming (at least for me) to update translations line by line through actual system (l10n.xwiki.org) for what regards the big application resource file (>3500 lines).

[xwiki-users] number property object?
by Paul Libbrecht 17 Oct '11

17 Oct '11

hello XWiki experts, I have an object property that's of type number. I have not been able to find the type of a variable x so that: doc.getObject("Space.Class").set("amountr", x) doc.save() works without a hibernate error. I tried float or integer "sub-type" of number. What should I put? I tried with x=new Float(1.0f) but failed. thanks for hints. paul

[xwiki-users] Activity macro issues
by Eugen Colesnicov 15 Oct '11

15 Oct '11

Hi everybody! I have strange situation with activity macro (XWiki 3.2). If I add Activity macro for user personal dashboard - I can see all personal messages & events, but If I put same macro (inside dashboard or not - doesn't matter) in simple page - I cannot see mesages for this users ... For reproducing situation: 1) create some "test" user 2) this user made some changes for page Sandbox.TestPage3 3) from another user (admin) sent some message personaly for "test" user 4) go to personal dashboard with activity gadget with string: {{activity spaces="Sandbox" authors="test"/}} - you can see page modification made by "test" and also message from admin. 5) Add same activity macro {{activity spaces="Sandbox" authors="test"/}} in another page - see result: no message, no info about page modification ... Why? What's the difference? My final goal - on some page (not personal dashboard) list all activity (personal messages stream too) of fixed user and fixed space. Unfortunatly, result what I want give me only personal dashboard of this user (on page /xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/test), and I cannot reproduce it on another pages ... Maybe I doing something wrong? Please give me some advice. -- Best Regards Eugen Colesnicov -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Activity-macro-issues-tp6895656p6895656.h… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] How to change the fonts text
by goldring, richard 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

Hi, My users want to be able to change the font size and type on their wiki pages to make their text stand out - how can this be done? Can the WYSIWYG editor can style pull down menu be tweaked to add text options for different font sizes and styles or is there a macro for this? Are there any plans to add font editing functionality to the WYSIWYG editor as say like you get in a word processor.

Re: [xwiki-users] Cannot delete attachment
by Crowd Covered 13 Oct '11

13 Oct '11

Hi Sergiu, I'm using default installation (HLSQL+Jetty). The message itself appears at the bottom of the page in the same place where "Saving..." and "Saved" appear. So my guess would be that it is still XWiki, or at least it wraps some stuff underneath. And also strange is that it works for same attachment in other space.

[xwiki-users] Problem with Validation Regular Expression
by Stéphanie 13 Oct '11

13 Oct '11

Hi everyone, I was trying to reproduce the tutorial of the form with validation and tooltips. I have a field "name" that I want to be between 1 and 10 characters (like first_name in the tutorial). The Validation Regular Expression for this field is : /.{1,10}/ I've made others fields with Validation Regular Expression /.+/ and these fields work without problem. But, when I enter the field "name" with more than 10 characters, the Validation Message doesn't appears and my form is validated. But, I don't want my form to be validated, because the field "name" is too long. Is there a problem anywhere (I copy all the code giving in the tutorial) ? /.{1,10}/ is it a deprecated expression ? Please help me ^^ Best regards, Stéphanie -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Problem-with-Validation-Regular-Expressio… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
