[xwiki-users] Formatting tables into viewport with sliders
by Bryn Jeffries 03 Dec '14

03 Dec '14

Hi, I've got a few wiki pages that contain large tables (more columns than will fit across the page and more rows than will fit down the page), after being imported from a spreadsheet. I'd like to restrict the view of such tables to what can be shown in the visible area, with sliders to move around. Is there already a facility to do this, or a simple styling parameter? Thanks, Bryn

[xwiki-users] Problem using Office Document Import
by Helen Stockebrand 02 Dec '14

02 Dec '14

Our new manufacturing engineer is documenting all of the procedures in our company. He has done this for several other companies and has work instruction templates he uses (mostly Excel with a few Word documents). I am to add these instructions to xWiki. I have tried several ways of importing them into the wiki pages so they would look just like the original documentation. All of my attempts have failed. The formatting just doesn't seem to import correctly. There are two boxes that can be checked or unchecked when importing the documents (Filter Styles and Use The Office Document Viewer). I have tried every combination and none of them worked correctly. I have included some screen shots of the documentation I am trying to import. The idea is to only need to edit one document when future changes arise rather than the document for the floor as well as the wiki (with the exception of uploading the new file to the wiki). Thanks for your help!

Re: [xwiki-users] Unable to search [unregistered and normal users]

In order to debug your issue you should: * open the browser's developer tools * select the Network tab * reload the page * type something in the search input * check the last requests send; they should target the XWiki.SuggestSolrService page * check the response output for each of these requests The response output should be something like: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <results> ... results here ... </results> Let me know what you have instead (simple user versus admin user).

[xwiki-users] Registering components
by Bryn Jeffries 01 Dec '14

01 Dec '14

Having been put off writing Java components a number of times I've decided to really tackle the problem head on. I would greatly appreciate any help in this. I've been following the advice in http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/WritingComponents and I have compiled a Jar identical to the Hello World example except that the class and method names differ, hopefully consistently. I've placed the jar in XE_WAR_HOME/WEB-INF/lib and written a page, which consists only of {{velocity}} $services.mycomponent.greet() {{/velocity}} The output when viewed is simple "$services.alertdb.greet()", so nothing seems to have happened. However, if I restart Tomcat (and then wait a minute or so for XWiki to restart) the output is "Hello", as desired. So is a restart of Tomcat always required? This wasn't mentioned in the guide. And since extensions can be added via the extension manager without a restart, is there a sneaky trick to doing the same with my own components. Also, is a restart necessary when I update the Jar, either with fixed methods or modified interface?
