Note that we don't have any video embedded on the home page anymore.
The whole page content is now:


{ quote noformat }== Welcome to your wiki ==
XWiki is the best tool to organize your knowledge. A //wiki// is organized in a hierarchy of //pages//. You can create multiple wikis, each with its own set of pages.
XWiki can be used as a knowledge base (support, documentation, sales, etc.), for collaborative workspaces or even as a complete intranet.
== The basics ==
To make the most out of your wiki, log-in and:
Use the {{displayIcon name="pencil"/}} button above to //edit// this page and start customizing your wiki to your needs.
Use the {{displayIcon name="add"/}} button above to //add// more pages to your wiki and create the //hierarchy// that best organizes your content.
Use the {{displayIcon name="home"/}} breadcrumbs located above the title to //navigate// inside your pages. It's easy to get lost in a big wiki without them.
You can also use the [[Sandbox>>Sandbox.WebHome]] for more demo content and generally a place to experiment with your wiki's features.
{{box}}Learn more on how to use XWiki with the [[Getting Started Guide>>https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Documentation/UserGuide/GettingStarted/WebHome]].{{/box}}
(% class="row" %)
(((
(% class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6" %)
(((
== Extend your wiki ==
To extend the power and functionalities of your wiki with the features that //you// need, head over to the [[Extension Manager>>XWiki.XWikiPreferences||queryString="editor=globaladmin&section=XWiki.Extensions"]] where you can search for and install extensions.
To browse through the 900+ community contributed extensions available for XWiki, head over to the [[Extensions Repository>>https://extensions.xwiki.org]].
)))
(% class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6" %)
(((
== Create your application ==
Go beyond the available extensions and define the //structure// of your data based on //your// needs, creating //your// own applications with [[App Within Minutes>>AppWithinMinutes]] (AWM).
AWM will take care of making it easy for you and your users to create and manage the data.

Note that the usage of (% class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6" %) and GroupBlocks is not that great too, as it makes the page a bit complex, but that could be another jira issue.

The space before the box macro will need to be fixed too.
