Hi,
This is a technical refactoring but I'm posting it here since it means changing our rendering API quite significantly.
Basically we currently have 2 notions: Image and Link. I'd like to make them one (called Reference) since we need/want to handle similarly and this would remove lots of duplicated code.
Since we've already broken quite a lot of Rendering APIs in XE 2.5M1/M2 I feel it's a good time to be brave and go the full monty... ;)
I've started the work already but wanted to keep you posted in case someone disagrees.
For the record this is about implementing:

Thanks

Hi guys,
The Main.Dashboard revamping was supposed to be done in 2.5M2, but I
didn't manage to. I would like to implement issues XE-719, XE-720,
XE-721 and XE-722 during the RC phase, to have them for 2.5 final.
Here's my +1,
WDYT?
If we do, the risk is that there would be issues, and the issues would
be in the main page of the wiki, if we don't (and create the 2.6 branch
and develop there), then we will be farther away with the implementation
of the dashboard in the 2.5 release (basically only the macro to display
columned content will be released in the final).
Additionally, I might not be able to have everything done by RC time,
but at least some of the macros should be implemented (the order is the
one of the list above).
Thanks,
Anca
Hi,
I'm failing at getting a logical condition that check if given XWiki
document has an object of a given class.
Please, could you help me with this?
Thanks!

Hi devs,
According to the roadmap [
http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/Main/Roadmap ], XE 2.5M2 should be
released today. However, there have been some significant changes
recently, which might need more time to stabilize. So, what's the status on:
- CSRF
- Office Preview
- Extension manager
Can we release M2 ASAP, or are there still things to do for these two?
There are also some features that didn't make it in so far:
- "Email this page" feature
- User directory
- Export UI
- Dashboards
- Recent changes
- Localization
Are any of these close to being committed? Should we wait a few more
days or do we postpone them to the next release?
For me:
- "Email this page" should be ready in two days
- Export UI: Postpone
- Localization: Postpone

Hi,
I've read a number of Jira issues and entries both in users and devs
email list but I was not able to answer this question:
Should I be able to include Velocity code in the document's title of a
***XE 1.3.8295*** (XWiki 1.0 syntax) installation?
I've failed so far. All what I get is the uninterpreted Velocity code.
The same code (really simple examples assigning a value to a variable
and reading it) is being correctly interpreted in the body of the document.
Thanks!

Hi all, hi Caleb!
Clearly I'm not the only one thinking about replacing words with links!
:-) I've found the Replace Words With Links Snippet
(http://tinyurl.com/37f79qu) and would like to know if it is worth to
get it adapted to a different bunch of requirements, if it could be
generalized or if I'm thinking about a different thing that
requires/deserves a different solution.
Having its origin in what I now consider wrong data model design
(http://ftp.ebiotic.net/onPdr/pescaderiasDataModel.png), I now get pages
including an object of User class (representing a given provider), and
pages containing an object of Species class (representing a product
offered by one of several providers).
Doc1.User.species contents a text string like 'species 01, species 04,
species 05'
Doc2.Species.galicianName contents, for instance, 'species 04'
What I need to do is to replace 'species 04' when rendering
Doc1.User.species with a link to Doc2. And the same with the other
strings if it exist a document with a Doc2.Species.galicianName matching
one of the strings in Doc1.User.species.
I've not a clear idea yet about what must be the right implementation to
"assign items to providers, but I've to deal with what I have for now.
Please, is it worth to adapt the Replace Words With Links Snippet to
this use case? Could it be done in some other simpler way? Could you
point me to any other example that could apply to this case? Thanks!
I'm new to Velocity, to Groovy and in most of the senses to XWiki as well!
By the way: the replacement of strings with links must be done on the
fly. Doing it any other way will complicate the way users create new
pages. It could be not the most efficient and cheap way, but I'm forced
to do it this way until we time and resources to modify the whole model.
Thank you so much for your help!
Ricardo
