Howto set Parent Value with drop down list (resolved)
Hi, I was looking for a way to set Parent Value with drop down list when user edit a page... I found this solution: I modify the forms "Panels: DocumentInformation" (/xwiki/bin/inline/Panels/DocumentInformation) like this: I replace lines: **************** <input type="text" id="xwikidocparentinput2" name="parent" value="$!tdoc.parent" size="30"/> **************** by **************** <select name="parent" class="panelselect"> <option value="$!tdoc.parent" selected="selected">$!tdoc.parent</option> <option value="">-Empty \*-</option> #foreach($subdoc in $xwiki.getSpaceDocsName("$doc.web")) <option value="$subdoc">$subdoc</option> #end </select> **************** The forms contain: **************** #set($pages = $tdoc.includedPages) #largepanelheader("XWiki document information") <dl><dt><label for="xwikidocparentinput2">$msg.get("parentfield"):</label></dt> <dd> <select name="parent" class="panelselect"> <option value="$!tdoc.parent" selected="selected">$!tdoc.parent</option> <option value="">-Vide \*-</option> #foreach($subdoc in $xwiki.getSpaceDocsName("$doc.web")) <option value="$subdoc">$subdoc</option> #end </select></dd> #if($pages.size() != 0) #if($pages.size() == 1) <dt>$xwiki.parseMessage("editincludepagemsgone"):</dt> #else <dt>$xwiki.parseMessage("editincludepagemsgmore"):</dt> #end <dd> <table summary="$msg.get("includeddocumentssummary")" id="xwikiincludeddocuments"> <tbody> #foreach ($page in $pages) <tr><td><a href="$xwiki.getURL($page, "view")">$page</a></td> <td class="xwikibuttonlink"><a href="$xwiki.getURL($page, "edit")">$msg.get("edit")</a></td></tr> #end </tbody> </table></dd> #end </dl> #template("tagedit.vm") #panelfooter()

Hi, We could integrate this in XWiki Core, as that would be an improvement over what we have (although your code snippet seem to only display the parent space and not pages, is that correct?) That said, we also have another issue related to this, which I think would be even better: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1272 pbas (don't know your name), what do you think about XWIKI-1272? As a user would you like that? Thanks -Vincent On Jul 10, 2007, at 8:45 AM, pbasnews-tmp@yahoo.fr wrote:

As was originally done (I think) it's important to keep list generation as simple (and fast!) as possible.. e.g. load only the documents for the space and perhaps Main.WebHome (and the parent of Space.WebHome) as possible parents... Erin -- Waste of a good apple. --Samwise Gamgee

I agree but how do I set a parent that is a page in another space? Thanks -Vincent

Maybe a checkbox or other dropdown for space? by default set to current.. if you change that it regens the list of pages? -- Waste of a good apple. --Samwise Gamgee

You have rename a Page for that (Main.Webhome). And My list display <current Space>.Webhome.

Well, we aren't talking about renaming the page, we're talking about supplying a list to choose parents from. I'm maintaining that presenting a list containing ALL pages in the wiki is not the best plan. We have thousands of documents in our wiki-- generating the AllDocs index takes a few minutes. It's too expensive to list every possible document for choosing a parent. -- Waste of a good apple. --Samwise Gamgee

We talking about the SAME thing: my list snipet (http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Code/SetParentValueWithList+Snippet) display all Pages of CURRENT Space! What I try to said (with my horrible english) is: The list must display ALL the Pages of current Space that's all. And if a user want to select a Parent in other Space, he can rename the Page in the new Space and select the list after. Pascal
