[xwiki-users] Background color for a livetable
by Stéphanie 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Hello everyone, I have a livetable build like every livetable : #livetable("allapps" $collist $ colprops $options) My livetable is build using a class and one of the field of this class is "state". This field can have three value : "new", "in progress", "closed". I want to put a background color for each line depending of this field "state". I want the background colors like this : - "new" -> background color = green - "in progress" -> background color = orange - "closed" -> background color = red Is there a possibility to define this somewhere ? And if yes, where exactly ? In the options of my livetable ? I hope this possibility exists because I really need it. Have a good day, Stéphanie -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Background-color-for-a-livetable-tp721965… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Re: [xwiki-users] Workspace manager, WYSIWYG editor + 3-rd "new idea"

Hi, All, As we have now workspaces in addition to virtual spaces, it looks logic to provide following scenario in UI of WYSIWYG editor: select virtual wiki/workspace -> Space -> Page -> Anchor It would help much in multiworkspace environment. Is it difficult to implement? Please, vote if it looks useful for you at http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XEM-209 Kind Regards, Dmitry 01 февраля 2012, 15:36 от Eduard Moraru <enygma2002(a)gmail.com>: > Hi Dmitry, > > I understand your concerns about programming rights.

Re: [xwiki-users] Workspace manager free default pages set + "new idea"
by Haru Mamburu 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Hi Eduard, Thanks for explnation. I'm very happy to issue a "new idea", but idea itself is a bit wider and deeper, then described below. I would like to point out some reasons and effects to be more clear before "jiraing" it :-) "Security leak" XE/XEM Usecase XE/XEM + Workspace Manager. One main Wiki and let's say, hundreds of workspaces. To be more real we'd add Wiki Manager and tens of virtual wikis running on the same engine (something like XWiki.com running) As my humble experience shows, nearly never in natural way XWiki would have only one User with Admin Rights on the Wiki level. It's human to be all the time in a hurry and meanwhile XWiki becomes messy inside. It's not the big problem yet. :-) As an Admin User on wiki level, I can easily gain programming rights. For now, it's completely uncontrolled and will run unnoticed. So, let's imagine that all stars in solar system lined up in a bad way and one Admin became an AngryAdmin with a revenge as a primary goal of life. Let's make it even worth: AngryAdmin knows XWiki quite good and scripting for him is an open book. To make it more real: AngryAdmin doesn't have root access to the server. :-) At this stage he has all necessary knowledge and access rights to ruin ALL WIKIs onboard. I didn't dig much in it, but if Workspace Manager has appropriate tools, then it's possible: one short script and it's over :-) I didn't met such occasions before, but heard a lot of similar usecases (not with XWiki :-) Thus, I NEVER run production on MAIN wiki! It looks dangerous for me. I'd better be paranoic admin rather embarrased admin. If somebody will become an "angry-beaver-admin", he would be able to ruin only one space (now he has a front-end tool for this :-)) or more, but only inside one project and all running wikis will stay alive. Such workflow keeps my paranoia quiet :-) SO, at last "new idea": escape MAIN WIKI from production completely. As only global users has programming rights, it looks very logic to leave Main Wiki to "Core and instances" management and keep it safe from local admins. When U have a lot of users it sounds reasonable for me. Let's return to our Case 1-3 described below. The most flexible solution looks as following: | virtual wiki 1 -> workspaces | virtual wiki 2 -> workspaces -> workspaces (probably) Main Wiki | .................................................. | virtual wiki N - "Solo" - No Workspace Manager onboard (administration) (production) Such a way we can run everything simultaneously on the same server. No need to run a lot of instances. If someone want's programming rights, he could be isolated locally and won't affect other wikis. Looks safe for me. Bad news: - Nobody, besides MySQL users would be happy, XEM is MySQL dependent still :-( So, before I'd "jira" an idea, I'd like to know community opinion to keep it comprehensive. Hope, it would be nice idea for 4.0 roadmap to think over :-) Best Regards, Dmitry 28 января 2012, 00:53 от Eduard Moraru <enygma2002(a)gmail.com>: Hello again, Please see below... On Fri, Jan 27, 2012 at 3:17 PM, Haru Mamburu <haru_mamburu(a)mail.ru> wrote: Thanks a lot for clarification. It makes sence now from explained point of view, but I still can't get WHY as global user on NON-workspace wiki I should see Workspace Manager menus? As I tried to explain in my previous mail, the idea is that you are a global user, coming from a global context (the main wiki). In that global context, you have the Workspace application installed and available for you to use. This means that, the Workspace application offers you the possibility to create a new workspace, jump to the main wiki or view existing workspaces trough the top-menu. From the Workspace application's point of view, it is only natural to allow you to perform these actions, regardless of your current location (that means even if you are viewing a non-workspace subwiki). As long as the Workspace application is installed, it will perform as designed :) Anyhow I can't use Workspace Manager INSIDE virtual Wiki. It makes sence if you would extend Workspace manager and make it completely independent on each and every virtual wiki. So, the main reason why: it's just useles inside virtual wiki (for now) Again, the extra menus are not about what you can do on the current wiki, but they are about what you can do on the whole XWiki, since this is a feature that spans cross wikis and is not restricted to an individual wiki (even if it is installed on the main wiki). For me, e.g., ideal workflow looks like: Case 1. XEM -> virtual wiki isolated, no Workspace Manager on board This is perfectly doable right now. If you think about the reasons for which you are creating a regular subwiki and not a workspace, you`ll notice that the main one is that you want local users. But since local users do not see any extra menus, you are good to go. Only you, as a global user (or admin) will see those menus, but that is just because the main wiki is offering you this possibility (since you are its member). Case 2. XEM -> virtual wiki isolated, WITH Workspace Manager on board. Each virtual wiki in this case will be able to produce it's own workspaces isolated from each other (like independent projects on the same server). Only Local Users can take part in workspace management. As you might already know, XWiki currently supports only *one level* of virtualisation and only one main wiki. You can not currently create a subwiki within a subwiki, not even with the WikiManager application. This means that you can not do this with Workspaces either. If you wish to obtain this scenario, you will have to set up multiple instances of XWiki. Having a subwiki within another subwiki might be an interesting new feature for the WikiManager application (and for Workspaces too). Please feel free to add a new feature request on jira.xwiki.org for the WikiManager component. Case 3. XEM -> virtual wiki isolated + Workspace manager on board. Same as Case 2, but Local Users can log once in any virtual/workspace wiki they allowed AND via this login have access to each and every wiki they registered/invited. If I understand correctly, this usecase would imply that local users (created in regular subwikis or, specifically for your case, in subwikis of subwikis) have a mechanism that allows them to escape from the isolation of the current subwiki of which they are part of and gain access to other subwikis or workspaces. Maybe you could do this by promoting the local user as a global user, optionally putting him in a special group to better manage rights. This way he/she can create/join workspaces and join other wikis. For current purposes I would prefer Case 1 behaviour. Soon I'd like to use Case 2 then 3 scenario, but for now - no way :-( Hope it would be useful for futher development. Yes, as I said, having subwikis within subwikis is a good idea that might actually be not so hard to implement (as far as Thomas tells me). Hope this helped. Thanks, Eduard Kind Regards, Dmitry 27 января 2012, 16:48 от Eduard Moraru <enygma2002(a)gmail.com>: Oh, I see now. The way it works now when visiting a normal subwiki (not a workspace) is that: 1) If you are a global user (user of the main wiki), the menus will be displayed to you (and you will be thus exposed to the global context of which you are part of). 2) If you are a local user (user of a subwiki that is part of a wiki *farm*), you don`t see the menus any more and are isolated inside the wiki (and not exposed to the global context). So, as a conclusion, the menus appear to you based on your user type and not on the type of wiki you are currently viewing. Does that make sense now? Does this fit your usecase? If not, can you please elaborate on the reason why you would like global users not to be able to see the global context when viewing a regular subwiki?

This means that, additionally to the WikiManager application [1], now XEM also contains the Workspace Application [2]. The encouraged way of for creating a wiki farm right now (if that is really what you need) is to get XE, install WikiManager [1] and create your farm. If you *insist* on using XEM for creating a wiki farm, all you have to do is delete the WorkspaceManager space, thus removing the Workspaces application and disabling the extra menus that were getting in your way. Additionally, you should also remove the xwiki-platform-workspace-api-<version>.jar file from the /webapps/xwiki/WEB-INF/lib/ folder, since you don`t want to use it anymore and you have removed the UI. However, if your plan is to have global users that work on different subwikis (like an intranet with departments mapped to subwikis or a place where you work on projects mapped to subwikis, etc.), you might reconsider using Workspaces. In any case, I hope this solves your problem.

[xwiki-users] Tag cloud with only 'viewable' tags
by Joris Dirks 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

I'm not sure if this is possible in the current configuration: My issue is this: A (anonymous) user can see tags used only in 'private' pages, e.g. pages the current user has no view acces to. If he clicks a tag, he can see the page "Tags?do=viewTag&tag=DeadlyIncidents" showing him no pages with this tag. The problem is threefold: - The tagcloud is cluttered with tags that are of no use to the current user - The user can become confused if he tries to look for a page with that tag - Information existing in a page is leaked. A tag is just a tag, but it can tells something about information on one or more pages. In my opinion, the user should only be able to see tags that are used in pages he has view right to. I can imagine it would put a heavy load on a system to check for every tag if it's used in viewable pages, though. Any thoughts? Sincerily, Joris

[xwiki-users] procedure steps
by Jinyan Su 01 Feb '12

Hi. I'm trying to write a set of procedures in xwiki. Something like: 1. Add the LDOM to the lab dhcp tables. {{code}}blah{{/code}} 2. ssh to the system {{code}}blah{{/code}} I tried using: 1. Add the LDOM 1. ssh to the system But, it saw these as different numbered lists. Is there a standard/preferred way of writing procedures in xwiki? Maybe using groupings {{{ }}}? Thanks.
