[xwiki-users] Syntax Highlighting
by Benedict NNcNannara 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

I have started a Wiki on Windows Programming <http://nncnannara.net/> in a new language called Hecsadecinnal <http://nncnannara.net/Html/Patent.html>. It has code in the C# and C++ languages. I need syntax highlighting to make the web site look respectable by modern standards. Does XWiki support syntax highlighting?

[xwiki-users] Question about panel sizing
by Rudi Ritosalo 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Hello, I am asking help on the matter of changing the left and right panel size of the XWiki i've installed. I'm using a war installed Xwiki 8.1 with a flamingo theme. So far from what I've gathered is that usable panel sizes are small, medium and large. What I'm looking for is something between small and medium. Is there a .vm or a .css file in the WAR package where I can modify the width of the panels manually? Or is there some other way to more precisely alter the width of the panels?

Re: [xwiki-users] failed to execute velocity macros

Hi, Tom, Depends how you`ve deleted the Admin user. If you`ve just sent it to the recycle bin, then going on the http://<server>/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/Admin page should show you the option to restore the profile page from recycle bin. If no such option exists (and you`ve deleted it from the recycle bin as well), the you have to recreate it. Just go to the same page, press the + (create page) button, make sure "Terminal page" is checked and hit "create", then "save". After that, go into object edit mode on the same page and add an object of the class XWiki.XWikiUser. Hit "Save" and the go into view mode where it should start looking like a user profile page again. The next thing would be to reset its password so that you can then log in with it at some point. Another option (instead of recreating it) would be to completely restore it by manually re-import just the XWiki.Admin page from the UI XAR, but I would need to know what exact XWiki version you have so I can give you the right link.

[xwiki-users] failed to execute velocity macros
by Tom Neumann 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Hi all, I've got a problem with my xwiki build right now. I configured LDAP and gave my LDAP user all the rights on the wiki, but I forgot to make him the owner of the wiki. After that I logged in with the LDAP user and deleted the old admin account and tried to set my LDAP user as owner of the wiki. Now every page shows this message: Failed to execute the [velocity] macro. Cause: [The execution of the [velocity] script macro is not allowed. Check the rights of its last author or the parameters if it's rendered from another script.]. Click on this message for details. Even the superuser account can't see the pages normally. What can I do? Is there a setting to give velocity macro rights to everybody? Or can I edit the database somehow?... Thanks, Tom
