[xwiki-users] [Proposal] Comparing XWiki to MediaWiki and Confluence on xwiki.org
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 22 Sep '17

22 Sep '17

Hi, Since we had users asking on the IRC what are the differences between XWiki and other solutions, it would be a good idea to provide such pages on the website: - XWiki and MediaWiki http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/XWiki-vs-MediaWiki - XWiki and Confluence http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Drafts/XWiki-vs-Confluence It would be great to know if you agree with the listed content and if you find other similarities or distinctions between the above solutions. Additionally, what other solutions would you be interested in seeing comparison with? Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-users] strip accents from page name used in url
by Miroslav Galajda 23 Jan '17

23 Jan '17

Hi, I’m using XWiki in Slovak language which uses accents, which consequently causes problems with urls. The urls becomes ugly containing encoded characters with accents. Does XWiki have integration point out of the box to replace the page name with custom one, with stripped accents from it? Thank you Mirec

by Kelly Steinke 20 Dec '16

I have recently upgraded from 3.5 to 5.5. The upgrade went fine however after logging in I accidentally hit the cancel button instead of the skip. I now want to rerun the Distribution Wizard but I cannot figure out how to re-trigger it. Can this be done?

[xwiki-users] Menu crashes if changed by a non admin user (see menu application extension)
by Alina Kupgisch 09 Dec '16

09 Dec '16

Hi Xwiki Team, it seems as if there is a small bug in the "Menu Application"extension (version 8.2). Every time a user, that is not in the XWikiAdminGroup, does some changes on the menu page in edit mode, the menu crashes and is no longer visible. To fix that an admin user of XWikiAdminGroup has to edit and save the page. It is important that a small change has to be done by the admin user. Best regards Alina

[xwiki-users] Re-organize the Drawer's entries
by Guillaume Delhumeau 14 Nov '16

14 Nov '16

Hello dear developers and XWiki users. I would you to take a look at the issue http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-13070. The problem is that the current order (that I have implemented based on my intuition) seems to not be clear for our users. The main point is that the menu mixes up global items (Home wiki, Wiki Index) and local ones (Administer Wiki, Page Index, Delete wiki, etc...). Caty and Oliver have made some proposals that you could find in the issue. They are called P1, P2, P3, P4 and P5. I propose you to express your preferences so we can implement it based on a consensus. Here are mine: P1: There is a logical order and separation between item. However, it seems the more used actions (Wiki Index, Page Index) are less visible than some other (Delete Wiki, Create Wiki...) P2: The order and the separation are logic. The "delete wiki" action is still very visible but all other items are good. P3: Same than P2. Except that having "Wiki Index" along with "User, Page and Application Index" mixes up local and global items. P4: Why not, but maybe the 3 first actions should be placed after the other ones, since they would be less used. Same remark about the mixing of local and global items. P5: A clear distinction between local and global scope. More used items are located first. This is my favorite one. So +1 for P5, +0 for the other options so far. Now, what about you? Thanks, Guillaume PS: I send this message to both devs and users mailing lists, because I think users are directly concerned by this topic. -- Guillaume Delhumeau (guillaume.delhumeau(a)xwiki.com) Research & Development Engineer at XWiki SAS Committer on the XWiki.org project

[xwiki-users] Change Numbering in TOC Macro
by Hofstätter Mario 31 Oct '16

31 Oct '16

There is an example on how to change TOC numbering: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/TOC+Macro#HExample3:Di… However, it does not work, and even the screenshot on that page does not display the expected result, namely "Level 2" with prefix "1.1" Can you provide a working example and update the TOC macro documentation? Our desired result is like this: http://i.imgur.com/J1V7Z5n.png (as it was the default in mediawiki) Thank you, Mario

Hi, XWiki version 7.1.2. We use Tomcat and MySQL. In query statistic we see many long queries such as below: # *Query_time: 49.708503 * Lock_time: 0.000089 Rows_sent: 0 Rows_examined: 4979 SET timestamp=1477308512; select visitstats0_.XWV_ID as XWV1_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_NUMBER as XWV2_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_NAME as XWV3_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_CLASSNAME as XWV4_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_IP as XWV5_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_USER_AGENT as XWV6_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_COOKIE as XWV7_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_UNIQUE_ID as XWV8_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_PAGE_VIEWS as XWV9_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_PAGE_SAVES as XWV10_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_DOWNLOADS as XWV11_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_START_DAT E as XWV12_22_, visitstats0_.XWV_END_DATE as XWV13_22_ from xwikistatsvisit visitstats0_ where visitstats0_.XWV_UNIQUE_ID='10.10.10.10Mozilla/4.0 (com patible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/7.0; SLCC2; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET CLR 3.0.30729; .NET4.0C; .NET4.0E)' and visi tstats0_.XWV_END_DATE>'2016-10-24 13:57:42' order by visitstats0_.XWV_END_DATE desc; If I understand correctly these queries check if the user entered the last 30 minutes.
