[xwiki-users] rerun distribution wizard
by Kelly Steinke 20 Dec '16

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] The "zh" Chinese support in XWiki-7.3 is very bad.
by KirbY ZhoU 19 May '16

19 May '16

1. The "tags" feature display a lot of jumbled text. For example: "运营" displays as "è¿è¥", if I click "è¿è¥", it becomes "Ã¨Â¿ÂÃ¨ÂÂ¥", much worse. 2. The "Solr Search" feature display a log of jumbled text. For example: "表格" displays as "Ã¨Â¡Â¨Ã¦Â Â¼" in the search result page. And of couse, it returns no hitted page, but it is actually appeared in the default "Sandbox" chinese page. For example: 3. The Chinese Sandbox, incorrectly use ">" instead of ">" in wiki source text. For example: [[沙箱测试页面1>>Sandbox.TestPage1]] Should be: [[沙箱测试页面1>>Sandbox.TestPage1]]

[xwiki-users] [Proposal] Plan for replacing XWiki's GWT-based WYSIWYG editor with the CKEditor-based one
by vincent＠massol.net 03 May '16

03 May '16

Hi everyone, I’d like to give everyone some heads up about the plan I discussed with Marius (who’s working on the new CKEditor integration) regarding the new CKEditor-based WYSIWYG. Goals: ====== * Replace the current GWT-based WYSIWYG editor with one based on CKEditor, see http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/CKEditor+Integration * Keep it as an extension so that it can be installed using the Extension Manager on XWiki versions 7.4.x. We need to introduce some UIXP to be able to replace the existing editor in the XWiki menus so we’ll need to commit that in 7.4.x (with x >= 2). * Make it possible to install the extension on XWiki versions 6.2.5+. However the installation will have some manual parts, to replace the GWT-based editor. Timeline: ========= * Before the 19th of Feb, a new version of the CKEditor integration will be released containing wiki page/attachment linking and image insertion features. At that point what will remain is: ** Support for editing macros ** Office importer (if needed) ** Configuration UI in the administration ** Add UIXP to integrate the CKEditor nicely into the platform (using extension points) ** Future: Add support for packaging CKEditor plugins as XWiki Extension. * The goal is to implement all these remaining features around when 8.1M1 is released (i.e. early April 2016), except maybe the Future part which could be done later on. * Starting 8.1M2, the goal would be to bundle the Extension in the distribution (default flavor) but to not make it the default yet. There would be some configuration option to select which WYSIWYG editor to use (GTW-based or CKEditor-based). * Starting 8.2, if all goes alright, we would set the CKEditor WYSIWYG to be the default (still with ability for admins to configure the editor they wish to use so they can continue to use the GWT-based one if they want that). * Starting 9.0, the idea would be to remove the GWT-editor and retire it to XWiki Contrib with instructions for advanced developers to build it and use it in XWiki should they still want to do that. However we won’t spend extra time to refactor it as an extension since that would spend too much time which we prefer to spend on improving the new WYSIWYG editor. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent PS: cc-ing the users list to let the XWiki users know about the plan ahead of time!

All documentation for the tree macro can be found at http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Document+Tree+Macro AFAIK there’s currently no way to configure how many items to display before “xxx more” appears. @Marius: is that correct? It seems it would be useful to have this in the future if that’s the case. WDYT? Do we have a jira issue about it already? I’m not sure what’s your use case for point 2. I guess you mean limit the hierarchy but it seems it would prevent users from navigating correctly so I’m not sure what’s the use case.

If you’ve done that then you’ve most likely broken the upgrade process since you’ve removed all the upgrades that were required to all default wiki pages! :) See http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Upgrade for the canonical way of upgrading an XWiki instance.

[xwiki-users] Mindtouch to Xwiki
by Daniel Tibô 27 Apr '16

27 Apr '16

Hello, In our department, the actuel wiki is based on Mindtouch/dekiwiki and we want to go to for a global wiki for the company with Xwiki. To do that, we need to transfer our data from the actual wiki and I managed to extract all the pages in HTML format (600+ files). I have found in the mailing list history a reply from Vincent in August 2013 to a similar request : ------ Hi Jason, I don't know of any existing Mindtouch converter to XWiki. However there are several handmade converter tools on http://extensions.xwiki.org that could serve as examples. What is the markup syntax used by Mindtouch? I have the feeling they only provide HTML which would be fine since XWiki's Rendering can convert HTML into wiki markup for example (or keep it as HTML too). So converting a page would be: * Read the export format from Mindtouch (what is it? XML?) * Use the XWiki API to create a wiki page, convert the HTML content to wiki markup (easy to do), add attachments Also note that Thomas Mortagne (one of the XWiki committer) is currently working on a wiki stream API that is an ideal scaffolding for importing/exporting wikis: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/wiki-stream . But there's non trivial dev work to be done to make it work. Another idea is to contact one of the companies providing professional services around XWiki and ask them how much it would cost for a conversion: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Support#HProfessionalSupport Hope it helps, -Vincent ------ Could you please point me to the right direction to convert my 600+ HTML pages to xwiki markup ? If you have any information to help me for the integration, that would be very kind of you Thank you for your help. Daniel.

[xwiki-users] Translation problems
by Mark Sack 09 Mar '16

09 Mar '16

I'm setting up a XWiki 7.4 site with a pt_BR localization and am updating empty translations as I go along according to our use cases. In the process I've run into a couple of problems. Firstly, on the Blog Archive panel, the months are being displayed in English. If I log into l10.xwiki.org and do a search for existing translation keys like the following: Original text: January Language: pt_BR Status: Not dead Other fields all blank the result returned has two keys, both of which are translated. How can I do the translation for the months in the blog panel? Note that if I switch the localization to another language such as fr, I see that the months are translated properly. Secondly, on the live tables on my soon to be production instance, the range phrase at the top of the live tables (such as the User Index) is showing up half English/half Portuguese as 'Results 1-10 out of 40 por página de 10'. If I switch the language to fr, the problem remains with the phrase showing up as 'Results 1-10 out of 40 par page de 10'. But if I set up a clean instance of XWiki, I see that the phrases are translated properly for both pt_BR and fr. Clearly, I've been futzing with something(s) that I should not have touched. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to diagnose the problem and restore the system to its proper behaviour? -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Translation-problems-tp7597763.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] How to filter livetable
by pgregoire 07 Mar '16

07 Mar '16

Hello, I installed xwiki a few days ago and I'm still learning the ropes. I created a new class called VersionInformation with its associated template and sheet. I'm able to create objects and display them in a livetable, but I have a hard time using the queryFilters option. My class has a Version field which I'd like to filter on. Here is my code: {{velocity}} #set($columns = ["Name", "CoreTag", "ReleaseDate"]) #set($columnsProperties = { "Name": { "link" : "none" } }) #set($options = { "className":"Development.Resources.Version Information.VersionInformationClass", "tagCloud" : true, "rowCount": 20, "queryFilters" : $4_0QueryFilter }) #livetable("4_0_VersionInformation" $columns $columnsProperties $options) {{/velocity}} I have no clue as to how the 4_0QueryFilter variable should be created. I'm guessing something along the lines of #set($4_0_QueryFilter = $services.query.xwql("Version='4.0'") ) but that doesn't work. I tried other variations on that with a WHERE statement, with the .execute() and so on but no success so far. Can somebody help me out on this?
