Hi all,

When I create a page in a Space called "MySpace" using Title "a.b.c" , it created a page call "c" under the space "a.b". (a.b: c) Is there anyway I can allow users create document with dot on the Title please? I would expect the document to be called "MySpace: a.b.c"

The dot character is reserved so you cannot create documents with dots. However you can have a dot in a document's title. Thanks -Vincent

Something seems to be broken in XWiki 4.0 as we are able to create pages which containts DOTs!

Problem then is, that Lucene can't/doesn't/won't index that page and the user can't find/search for information on that page.

For example: Create a page with a DOT in the name, for example "Mijn.Test" and take a look at the Class of that page, you will see "Mijn\.Test"

An "\" has been added to escape the DOT (at least, that's what I think), causing trouble for the search engine.

Yes, the backslash is for escaping the dot so that it isn't considered as space-page separator when the document reference is parsed/resolved, but this is only when the document reference is serialized. The dot is allowed in the page name and the reference serialization with backslash is perfectly normal. Lucene should either use a document reference resolver or get the document name using the API. If it doesn't then it's a bug in Lucene. I doubt that's the problem though. Hope this helps, Marius

Anyone else notice this behaviour? Is this fixed in XWiki 5.x?
