[xwiki-users] Subscribe to RSS feed inpassword-protected wiki
by coldserenity 27 Nov '12

27 Nov '12

Hi, Is there a way to subscribe to RSS feed in a totally protected XWiki (only log-in page described to anonymous)? E.g. with MS Outlook? I used common feed list approach described here http://blog.jonudell.net/2007/01/23/a-screencast-about-common-feeds-in-vist… I'm able to see items when the feed is imported to outlook the first time, but then I do not get the updates. And here's http://blog.jonudell.net/2007/03/27/authenticated-rss-feeds/ where I found people discussing subscription to a password protected feed.

[xwiki-users] Statistics
by Vitantonio Messa 22 Nov '12

22 Nov '12

Hello everyone, I've activated the statistics on my virtual xwikis, but when I access the page XWiki/Stats I see the code, but not statistics, as this: <% period = request.get("period") Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); cal.setTime(new Date()); if (period==null) { period = cal.get(Calendar.YEAR) * 100 + (cal.get(Calendar.MONTH)+1) } jour = cal.get(Calendar.YEAR) * 10000 + (cal.get(Calendar.MONTH)+1) * 100 + (cal.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH)+1) type = request.get("type") if (type==null) type = "view" %> In the xwiki.cfg, this is the section related to statistics: xwiki.stats=1 xwiki.stats.default=1 xwiki.stats.class=com.xpn.xwiki.stats.impl.XWikiStatsServiceImpl Any help?

[xwiki-users] Xwiki LDAP Authentication doesn't work when you move a user to a different OU in Active Directory
by lukweb 20 Nov '12

20 Nov '12

Hello all, I'm working with the last version of XE and i get the LDAP authentication on my Active Directory Domain. My problem is when i move a user to a different OU in the Active Directory, the user can't login in Xwiki anymore...(Error : Wrong password). Is there a way to configure the xwiki.cfg in order the authentication could "browse" the all Active Directory to find the user and allow him to login ? Thanks in advance. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Xwiki-LDAP-Authentication-doesn%27t-work-when-you-move… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] New Realtime collaborative editing extension.
by Caleb James DeLisle 12 Nov '12

12 Nov '12

Hi guys, I just finished repackaging the realtime collaborative editor which was developed as part of wiki/3.0. It is now installable as an extension. It's still a bit rough around the edges but it's pretty safe to play with so everyone is invited to give it a try. * Multiple users can edit the same document at the same time and their changes are merged in real time. * The "RealTime Wiki" editor is an option along side WYSIWYG and Wiki so it won't break existing editors. * Easy installation by copying a .jar file and importing a .xar file, removal is simply deleting 2 XDocuments. http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/RealTime+Wiki+Editor Please feel free to share your experiences in the mailing list, on the extension wiki page and on the github bug tracker. Thanks, Caleb

[xwiki-users] "Minor Edit" Strategy
by Hamster 09 Nov '12

09 Nov '12

To all, If someone edits a page on our wiki, they are always creating a new revision. Our users (including myself) do not mark an edit as "minor" (small checkbox in the lower right when you edit a page "Is minor edit". I would like to change this behaviour. I would like that every edit is a minor edit (thus the checkbox should be checked by standard) and that a user has to uncheck that if he's making a "major" edit. Does anybody know if this is possible? Now that I think of it, can't XWiki just ask me if I want to make a new revision if I change/add for example 10% of a page? That should be a nice feature :-) -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Minor-Edit-Strategy-tp7582091.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

by Geo Du 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hi all, I like to remove some of the menu items based on the user logged in, for example for one type of users, I need to remove the Add menu, or change Wiki, Space or Page menus to my own menus, I checked the users rights, it has View, Comment, Edit, Delete, Register, Program, they seem not designed for that, any suggestions? I checked menuview.vm, that is where to control the menus, it seems I need to change this file. Thanks for your suggestions in advance. David

[xwiki-users] Just questions regarding filesystem storage feature
by Jeremie BOUSQUET 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

Hello, No issues here just needing some insights on filesystem storage ... I just moved to it (on 4.3-milestone-1), and ran script to migrate my attachments from db to filesystem. Though attachments seem to open perfectly well, I'm surprised by the difference in size: file "xwikiattachment_content.MYD" (I'm using MySql as you guess) is about 1,3GB, while my whole folder ${xwiki.data.dir}/storage is only about 600MB. What could explain such a big difference ? (apart from some attachments that may not have been migrated) Considering: "It is prudent to leave the attachments in the database since in most situations the attachment data is not bothersome just sitting in the database (The only risk of attachments left in the database is that they will bloat the size of the database files)" [1] Ok with that, but supposing that I checked my attachments are ok and I'm satisfied with fs storage (or I'm just using a test xwiki that I can blow away without risk), removing attachments from db means cleaning table xwikiattachment_content, is it right ? Can I remove other xwikiattachment* tables, or are they still used to reference the attachments ? (I guess they do but...) Thanks, Jeremie [1] - http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Filesystem+Attachment+…

[xwiki-users] Organising files on the network
by Hamster 31 Oct '12

31 Oct '12

To all, In our organisation we are using a lot of MS Excel Spreadsheets which holds all kinds of data. These Excel Spreadsheets are stored on our servers, but they are "scattered" across our network. We want to organise there files better. We DONT want to upload these files to XWiki, because we want those file to be easily accessable from our network as well (and we have trouble with large attachments (71Mb) which refuse to be removed from XWiki). We have created multiple spaces in our XWiki, lets say they are called A, B and C. Each space has been "locked down" and only users with the right permissions can access those spaces. I am thinking about creating a new file-structure on our server. One main folder called "XWiki" I want to create sub-folders "A", "B" and "C". Our IT department will apply the correct rights to each sub-folder. In our XWiki, we can then create UNC-links to the files on our server (which I create by hand, because I am the only one with the knowledge to create these links :-). What do you think about this setup? I am interrested in all opinions, experiences, etc. P.s. With "MS Excel Spreadsheets" I mean all kinds of files :-) -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Organising-files-on-the-network-tp7582099… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] images are missing when running wiki in disk mode?
by mohit gupta 29 Oct '12

29 Oct '12

Hi all, I log in to wiki with my admin credentials. Now navigate to administer wiki but i do not see the wiki default images like configuration.png,lf.png,usersgroups.png etc When i go to firebug and inspect that image , i see the path as /mywiki/bin/download/XWiki/AdminSheet/configuration.png but there is no folder like this under mywiki (looks like they are stored in db and returned thru servlet.Just a guess) Just for information, i am running my wiki instance in disk mode so that all my attachments are stored in file system instead of db. Below is the change i did for that:- xwiki.store.attachment.versioning=0 # disable document recycling storage.attachment.recyclebin=0 xwiki.store.attachment.hint = file xwiki.store.attachment.versioning.hint = file xwiki.store.attachment.recyclebin.hint = file *I am not sure what i am missing here? Is running wiki under disk mode the cause for it ?, If yes what is the right way to proceed?*
