by Wouter de Vos 07 Apr '11

07 Apr '11

Hi all, I uploaded my own logo.png in the header of my wiki, works great. Now I would like to change the link behind the logo, I want that it always points to the Webhome of the space the user is in, and I dont know how to do this. I allready changed some things in the global.vm of the skin, I can feel that I am almost there... But I need the code snippet for pointing towards the Webhome in the Space the user is in. Any help is greatly appreciated. -Wouter

[xwiki-users] Show Lucene Search Results in same Space
by Wouter de Vos 06 Apr '11

06 Apr '11

Hi All, I am testing around with the Lucene Search, all works well, one problem remains: I search in Space A. My search results however, are shown in the Main Wiki Page. This has a different look and feel, and since I do not want to have confused users, I would like to display the search results in the same Space as where the User was was in when he-she started the search. I am guessing its only a one line change in some form, but I cant seem to find it, I hope someone can help me out.. Thanks in advance, Wouter

[xwiki-users] Calendar lost some functionality in 3.0
by Lockie 06 Apr '11

06 Apr '11

Hi all I'm in the process of starting from a fresh install in 3.0 after using 2.4 for many months. I have however encountered a problem with the "Edit" link used for directly editing a calendar entry (which is an object generated when you add an event to the calendar). These entries appear in a list and with each one there is the "Edit" link mentioned above, as well as a "Remove" link. The "Remove" link removes the calendar entry fine, but in 3.0, the "Edit" link always goes to the very first calendar entry, called CalendarEvent 0. In my 2.4 installation though it correctly goes to the corresponding calendar entry. This is the section of code I think is at fault, note it's in 1.0 syntax. #foreach($event in $doc.getObjects("XWiki.CalendarEvent")) 1.1.1 $event.title.replaceAll('\n', "") #if($hasedit) ( $doc.getURL( $msg.get("edit") , $doc.getURL( $msg.get("delete") ) #end Somehow the $event.number is always 0 and not the actual number of the entry. It could be related to the Velocity engine getting upgraded to 7.1? I tried copying parts of the "Remove" section since that is getting the link to the entry correct, but it always goes to the very first entry, number 0. I really need this functionality because it's much easier for users to edit an entry individually then sifting through the objects that eventually grow to a big number. It's preventing me from moving to 3.0, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

[xwiki-users] Modalbox
by afrey 05 Apr '11

05 Apr '11

Was anyone able to load an url in a Modalbox? How do you do that? Like, for example, when clicking on a button, display "http://www.google.com" in the Modalbox. Is that possible? I tried the following, and it's not displaying anything. What am I doing wrong? {{velocity}} #set($ok = $xwiki.jsfx.use("js/scriptaculous/scriptaculous.js")) #set($ok = $xwiki.jsx.use("XWiki.ModalBox")) #set($ok = $xwiki.ssx.use("XWiki.ModalBox")) {{html}} Google {{/html}} {{/velocity}} -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Modalbox-tp6242462p6242462.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] delete attachments - XWiki Enterprise 3.0- new filesystem storage
by Legeinfo 05 Apr '11

05 Apr '11

"Deleted" attachments are not deleted in version. 3.0 with new file system storage . Is this intended or a malfunction? After testing with some Gigabyte-files my hard disk was getting full because of these "deleted" files.

[xwiki-users] What is the best strategy to document multiple versions (of a software) with XWiki ?
by Andreas Hahn 05 Apr '11

05 Apr '11

Hi, I'm wondering how I should document multiple versions of a software with XWiki. 1) Each versions documentation should be accessible under a version name that is part of the url http://www.thesoftware.org/version1/Reference_page1 2) Current version should point (redirect ?) to the most recent version http://www.thesoftware.org/currentVersion/Reference_page1 (Note that I have left off any parts of the url requried by XWiki (bin ...) Its important that all pages of a version can be referenced as a permalink. I'm thinking to do it this way but I'm wondering if there are any side effects I haven't thought of: - Versions are space names - Create a new version by copying the space from the last version - Copying the space is done by exporting the xar, renaming the space to the new version, then importing the .xar to recreate the last version. Any changes in the new version shall not modify documents of the last version (incl. attachments) - Change 'DocumentNotFound' template of 'currentVersion' (in a way that needs investigation) that it redirects all page requests for the space 'currentVersion' to a configured version --- or --- - handle requests to 'currentVersion' in an upfront (Apache httpd) Proxy Server redirecting to a configured version Is this a reasonable approach to document multiple versions or do i miss something ? Any ideas welcome ! thanks Andreas

[xwiki-users] Determining Optimal Migration Path
by Jack Piccininni 04 Apr '11

04 Apr '11

We want to go from version 2.0.2 of XWiki Enterprise to the latest version. We found going straight from 2.0.2 to 2.7.1 messed up our formatting very badly. We see that we probably need to go through a migration step-by-step, version-by-version. But, do we need to go through every single point/maintenance release (e.g., 2.0.3, 2.0.4, etc.) which is 20-something releases, or just each minor (e.g., 2.1, 2.1, 2.3, etc.) release? Is there even a shorter migration path with fewer interim versions, hitting just the ones that make major changes (e.g., database schema and data changes, etc.)? And is there a way for me to determine that optimal migration path for myself as I get behind in versions? We love the product, but we want to just use it, not care and feed it too often, and keep it updated it when we find time to upgrade. Thanks, Jack Piccininni University of Illinois at Chicago

[xwiki-users] importing my pages from previous installation
by sadid sahami 04 Apr '11

04 Apr '11

Hello! I've installed xwiki ver 3 through the provided .exe file (Default setting and databases on Windows 7) I had also same xwiki installation on my Fedora 11 (version 2.3) which its home folder had been copied as backup. (according to official guide, xwiki store the pages under xwiki folder in the /home directory/xwiki enterprise/ so I copied the folder for future use) Now, how can I import this backup to my new installation? I don't see anything special?? I tried copying database folder, log file and many other things but nothing... :( how can I import my previous xwiki pages to current version from xwiki directory? ( I just need some pages which I created on that installation) I have copied the directory completely on that time...but now when I copy the database folder to new installation nothing happen.... is there any hope? where xwiki store the pages???? ps. I'm using xwiki as a personal and currently offline.

I downloaded "xwiki-enterprise....-standard.exe" file and install it successfully without any error. but when I run xwiki_start the command window comes up and instantly close....actually nothing happen and the server doesn't run. I don't know what should I do and where can i get a log or anything else to know what the problem is. one thing that maybe relevant....I'm using your-freedom proxy program which is java based and run on 8080 port (the port can be changed easily) I also tried different browser setting. I also can close the proxy program and try xwiki_start without any proxy..... one important note, I just want to use my xwiki in offline mode...btw, I have exactly same problem with 2.3 version which I used it successfully in winXP.
