[xwiki-users] Can't Upgrade from XWiki 3.5.1
by jhaimerl 26 Jul '16

26 Jul '16

Hi, I'm trying to upgrade an existing XWiki Instance (V3.5.1). It's running with a MSSQL database. I already tried the following (see referenced links below) and upgrades to different higher versions of XWiki e.g. 4.x, 5.4.x. However I always get this exception http://pastebin.com/yeaFQAtt. http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Another-migration-problem-3-5-to-4-1-3-td… http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2012-August/023537.html http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Failed-migration-from-3-0-to-4-3-1-td7583… Does somebody have any hints how to solve this? Many thanks in advance! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Can-t-Upgrade-from-XWiki-3-5-1-tp7600118.… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Application only saves input when xobject is opened in default language, not in other languages
by Jan-Paul Kleijn 26 Jul '16

26 Jul '16

Hi all, I have made an application with the following elements (with the default language set to English) * class * sheet * template The class (bookSystemCode.bookClass) has these objects on it: * XWiki.DocumentSheetBinding : XWiki.ClassSheet * AppWithinMinutes.MetadataClass : books * XWiki.ClassSheetBinding : bookSystemCode.bookSheet The sheet (bookSystemCode.bookSheet) has these objects on it: * XWiki.SheetClass : (empty) * XWiki.SheetDescriptorClass : edit The problem is that when I create a new XObject, fill the input fields and save the XObject it does not save the answers I have given in the input fields. This happens only when I open the XObject in another language as the default language. In the default language it works as it should. I understand that the XObject is linked to the default document but when done with AppWithinMinutes this change of language and saving the input works nicely. Can you give me a hint of what I am doing wrong here? Am I forgetting something?

[xwiki-users] excluding WebHome from space directory livetable
by dullfig 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

Hello: I have a page that is the parent document of a space. I want to display on that page a livetable of all the sub documents in that space. I already put the code there, but the livetable also displays the WebHome page, wich is the parent itself. How do I hide the WebHome page from the livetable?

[xwiki-users] Horizontal Menu within a page
by Paul Pinkerton (ACLCO) 25 Jul '16

25 Jul '16

I am trying to figure out how to display a vertical menu within a page. I was playing around with the Menu Macro and I can get it to work just fine in a panel, but in a page, only the horizontal menu hides the sub items until the main item is expanded. With the Vertical, it simply displays all items. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. Paul Pinkerton KnowledgeNow Project/ ACLCO

[xwiki-users] Trying to use $doc.documentReference as the documentTree root
by simmsj 23 Jul '16

23 Jul '16

I'm trying to list the children of the current page. According to this post: http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2015-December/031639.html, I believe this should work, but all I get is "No pages found": {{velocity}} {{documentTree root="$doc.documentReference" /}} {{/velocity}} If I use {{velocity}} $doc.documentReference {{/velocity}}, the correct value is returned. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong or if there is a better way to list all the children of the current page? Thanks, Jared -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Trying-to-use-doc-documentReference-as-th… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Menu Application subwikis MenuMacro
by Jaume Giribert Peraire 22 Jul '16

22 Jul '16

Hi, Sorry if this topic has been already exposed but I was unable to find any reference in any past emails. We have a 7.4 xwiki installation with multiple subwikis and we want to install Menu Application for every wiki. I just launched a farm installation from Principal wiki and everything seems to work fine but we have found an strange issue. If user has permissions in the last subwiki where Menu Application has been installed he's able to see menu with styling. However, if another user has only permission to an specific wiki (i.e. local user) he can see the menu but no styling is applied. After some browser debugging we have found that Menu Application is making this call for EVERY subwiki. <DOMAIN>/xwiki/wiki/<SUBWIKI>/ssx/Menu/MenuMacro?language=en&colorTheme=xwiki%3AFlamingoThemes.Charcoal The SUBWIKI param is always the same and matches the last subwiki where Menu Application has been installed. Is there any way to make this call like this: <DOMAIN>/xwiki/wiki/<CURRENT_SUBWIKI>/ssx/Menu/MenuMacro?language=en&colorTheme=xwiki%3AFlamingoThemes.Charcoal Thanks in advance!

[xwiki-users] White spaces around images in exported pdfs
by Alina Kupgisch 21 Jul '16

21 Jul '16

Hi xwiki team, i get big white spaces around my images in the exported pdfs, after making the images smaller on our wiki pages. I tried changing the margin, padding, and the border size of the images in the css (used for the pdf export) but that didn't change anything. The background of the image in the exported pdf is bigger than the image itself (i changed the background color for evaluation). Best regards Alina
