[xwiki-users] Timezone preference - what does it do?
by xwiki.mexon＠spamgourmet.com 10 Feb '13

10 Feb '13

I've got a bunch of objects with date fields in. When I view the page in edit objects mode, the dates are displayed with no timezone information. If I change the timezone in my preferences pane, it doesn't change the time that's displayed at all. I would expect that if there's no timezone information displayed against a time, then it must be showing me the time converted into my configured timezone. But apparently not. I'm not sure what those times actually mean now. If changing the timezone doesn't affect how times are displayed, what does it affect? This is version 4.4.1, by the way.

[xwiki-users] Multiple FAQ Spaces/Pages?
by pkirill 09 Feb '13

09 Feb '13

Using the FAQ Application (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/FAQ+Application) I cannot seem to figure out how (or if it is possible) to set up multiple FAQ Spaces. When I install this application, it creates a couple of spaces FAQ and FAQCode - with FAQ being the actual "FAQ Space." What I need to create is a General FAQ for the site and for the company, and another that deals with just Technology. So I would have "General FAQ" and "Technology FAQ" for example. Any thoughts on how to do this? Thanks for any assistance! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Multiple-FAQ-Spaces-Pages-tp7583099.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Special characters in pagename (URL)
by Hamster 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

To all, My users are driving me crazy...allthough I have stated several times that they must NOT use any special characters in the pagename (URL), they still create pages with special characters. I also don't like any spaces in the URL (which are replaced by a "+")... Is there a way to parse the pagename before it's created and remove any special characters? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Special-characters-in-pagename-URL-tp7582… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] [myxwiki] new wiki request
by xrichard 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

Hello, I had a dream ;-) to share my personnal notes and geek tips through a wiki rather than on text files stored on my hard drive. I started to write tutorials on a cloud wiki(1) but I discovered that cloud wiki does not allow guest comments and runs an old version of xwiki(2). I have discovered later that it's possible to run a full wiki if we gently ask on this mailing list. Please find below my wiki request. - My xwiki.org's user name: xrichard - Description of the Wiki: first level tutorials on Windows, Android, Ubuntu and maybe more - Server Name for this new wiki: tutos I hope a kind admin will create this wiki for me on the "XWiki Community farm". Thanks in advance ;-). Notes: 1. my test Wiki (sorry it's in french): http://tuto.cloud.xwiki.com 2. limitations on cloud xwiki, see discussion here: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Guest-access-on-wiki-hosted-on-cloud-xwik… -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/myxwiki-new-wiki-request-tp7583032.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] EventListener automatic start - is it possible?
by Eugen Colesnicov 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

In the XWiki existing great technology - custom EventListeners, which can execute, for example, on 'save page' event some script. Existing some nice examples of using this technology: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Title+Post+Processing+… http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Create+Object+with+Con… But, in the past, problem was, that your EventListeners cannot automatically start (for example if application server restarted). I know right now only one 'trick' - right a scheduler job, which every 5 minutes restarts EventListener. Here - http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/GroovyNotificationTutorial existing example of such job, but: 1) this is like a 'trick' - not a normal solution 2) existing troubles of writing such jobs for not qualified users (like me :) ) My question - at this moment, at the end of 4.x cycle, existing more comfortable solution of this problem? If not - do you have (this is question for developers) plans for the future to give for the users some instrument which can do it easy? -- Thanks beforehand!

[xwiki-users] Updating xwiki objects? How to?
by David Delbecq 08 Feb '13

08 Feb '13

Hello, i have a form that is trying to update xwiki object. For whatever reason, it's not updating. Here is the groovy code. The nearly same code but with "newObject" instead of "getObject" properly create new entries. I can't find out how to tell xwiki that the object has changed and need to be updated in database. if (request.update !=null){ println ("update mode"); obj = doc.getObject('Configuration.NewsClass',request.doEdit.toInteger()) println "$obj " // Here i get "com.xpn.xwiki.api.Object@69506371" obj.set("linkfr",request.linkfr) obj.set("titlefr",request.titlefr) obj.set("linknl",request.linknl) obj.set("titlenl",request.titlenl) obj.set("publication",new java.util.Date().parse("dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm",request.publication)) println obj.get("linkfr"); // Correclty outputs the new value doc.save("update news entries") // This properly appear in history println "Saved "+request.doEdit // It says "Saved 53" for example Regards, David Delbecq

Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki 4.3 will not maintain logged in status of users
by Lineberry, Casey 05 Feb '13

05 Feb '13

Thanks, Eduard. I discovered that setting the " xwiki.authentication.useip=0 " corrected the issue I was seeing with the constant login requests on each click. I did check, and the xwiki-platform-workspace-api-4.3-rc-1.jar file does not exists in the WEB-INF/lib directory. However, I tried to add it for its functionality, and it broke the entire deployment. Xwiki would not longer load with numerous "ClassNotFound" exceptions. I removed the JAR and pulled out the workspacemanager directory and the site started functioning again. So - my original issue was solved with the xwiki.authentication.useip setting. I appreciate your suggestion, and I'll look deeper into what functionality I may be missing without the WorkSpaceManager plugin. - Casey -----Original Message----- From: users-bounces(a)xwiki.org [mailto:users-bounces@xwiki.org] On Behalf Of Eduard Moraru Sent: Tuesday, February 05, 2013 7:27 AM To: XWiki Users Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki 4.3 will not maintain logged in status of users Hi Casey, > Failed to lookup script service for role hint [workspace] I`m not sure about your login problem, but this log messages suggests that the workspace jar is missing for some reason.
