Hi, • description: I work with the Bristol Action of Bristol Township near Canandaigua, NY USA. Bristol Action is an unofficial non-profit group working to protect the environment in Bristol Township. We want to create a web site that augments our page on FaceBook. This site will contain information regarding the latest issues regarding High Volume Hydrofracturing, HVHF or ‘Fracking’ in our township and New York State. It will also contain information about alternative energy sources available in our area. I will be the technical person as I have developed computer software for over 40 years. We will also have several people (no more than 5) updating content on the site. We would like to us the mywiki community farm to host this web site. • owner name: ron.rdssoftware(a)gmail.com, Ron Smith • wiki name: bristolaction (if this is not available, then usany bristolaction) Please let me know what else you need to set up a wiki on .myxwiki.org. Thanks, Ronald D. Smith ron.rdssoftware(a)gmail.com

[xwiki-users] XWiki Web Widgets do not display
by Mark Elliot 17 Jun '14

17 Jun '14

Our XWiki web site is broken. The symptom is that many buttons, drop-downs, text boxes do not display. We can display the main content web pages and links to other pages work. The trouble comes when we try to administer the web site. For instance, we cannot add a user to a group because the text entry boxes and the "Add" button do not display when the group edit page is displayed. Example GETS that do not work are in the form of http://gallica.ranchsystems.com:8080/xwiki/bin/cancel/XWiki/XWikiPreference… http://gallica.ranchsystems.com:8080/xwiki/bin/lock/XWiki/XWikiPreferences&… These GETS result in the [HTTP/1.1 204 No Content 169ms] error. We welcome all suggestions and advice on the matter.

Hi everyone, On the 15th of December (i.e. in a month's time), it will be **10 years** since the first commit on the XWiki open source project. Ludovic did the first commit in CVS on Sourceforge: " 15.12.2003 10:13:33, by ludovic Initial revision " (Can be seen at http://svnsearch.org/svnsearch/repos/XWIKI/search?from=20030101&to=20040101 ) 10 years is starting to be some respectable milestone! I invite everyone to join us in celebrating by adding your own story about your interaction with the XWiki community or the XWiki software at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/TenYearsOfXWiki <XWiki SAS hat> Since I'm also the CTO of the XWiki SAS company, I'd like to officially invite all the members of this great community to join us in celebrating the 10 days of the XWiki project at the XWiki SAS office in Paris, France on the 12th of December 2013.

[xwiki-users] link on a header in the same page
by Christophe Domas 13 Jun '14

13 Jun '14

Hi, Create a link on a header in the same page is painfull. First reflex is to use the link syntax of the link [[label>>Space.Page#HMyheading]] as described http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiSyntax#HLinks and ommitting the "Space.Page". It seems quite natural but it does not work and we have to use the xwiki syntax link specification : [[label>>||anchor="HMyHeading"]] Each time I have to do this, I spend a lot of time to retrieve this information (my co-worker too), so I create my own xwiki user guide but I think it should be more easy if this information stay on xwiki syntax... Is it possible to add a new row in the the table of Links section with [[label>>||anchor="HMyHeading"]] ? Or better, allow us to create links with [[label>>#HMyheading]] By the way, I'm not alone: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/XWiki-anchor-syntax-doesn-t-work-td758245… Best regards, Chrisophe

Hello together, I don't know why, but since I upgraded to 6.0 (6.0.1) I cannot launch the Syntax Guide (XWiki.XWikiSyntax). I just get an Failed to execute the [velocity] macro error and that's it. Here you will find the complete error message-> http://mysticpaste.com/view/z6rrmr8o91?2 I have a clone of the XWiki instance where I don't have this problem but there the content is shown twice. I compare both pages and for me they are the same, same content, same objects, same classes. Where can I look or test whre this problem is coming from?

On this page <http://www.xwiki.com/lang/en/Blog/OfficeImport> they are referring to a "mass office import application". I badly need this to migrate hundreds of word-documents to the Wiki. Where do I find this? I just won't be bothered doing it one by one...
