[xwiki-devs] Saving page name with accented character?

by Julio Brum

I am using the XWiki version 7.4.1 with UTF-8 in Xwiki, tomcat8 and Postgres, but every time than I save a page with accent in the name, XWiki change the name. For example, I try to save a page with the name "é" and XWiki save "%25C3%25A9" Please, why this happens? *My settings in windows:* *tomcat\conf\server.xml:* <Connector port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" URIEncoding="UTF-8" *xwiki.cfg:* xwiki.encoding=UTF-8 *PostgreSQL:* CREATE DATABASE wiki WITH OWNER = postgres ENCODING = 'UTF8' TABLESPACE = pg_default LC_COLLATE = 'Portuguese_Brazil.1252' LC_CTYPE = 'Portuguese_Brazil.1252' CONNECTION LIMIT = -1; Thanks, Julio

[xwiki-devs] Panels lists subpages on navigation bar

by Alessandro Strambini

Hey all I have a problem with the Panels.Spaces navigation option in xwiki. I run 7.2 at the moment and i know its deprecated in 8.x, but i have no option to migrate at this time. So Panels.spaces lists all my Spaces correctly but it adds subpages too when i add a page in a space for example with the '+'. And its shown like 'Space.CreatedPageName'. Anyone knows what to change? Because when I'm inside the Space and i edit it and add a page in the source code, like 'name>>doc:name' it gets added without problems. Thank you for any help Best regards Alessandro Strambini

[xwiki-devs] [Vote] Showcase contributors in the Release Notes

by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica)

Hi, Since May 2015 we added in the Release Plan Help a step that collects the list of code contributors of a release and lists them in the announcement mail. IMO this is a nice way to acknowledge and thank people that are contributing to XWiki. I want to propose that we add this contributors list in the Release Notes. Release Notes are accessible when someone wants to downloads XWiki and they are also referenced as documentation when we close issues, while the mailinglist are read just by the people that are subscribed. This visibility increase will be beneficial to thank participants and also maybe motivate other users to join the development. We could have this listing both in the Release Notes and the Announcement Mail, but I believe it's sufficient in the Release Notes (let me know if you disagree). This change would imply: - Change in the Release Plan to add this step - Change in the Release Plan Help to document the process - Change the Release Notes Template to add the Contributors section The Release Manager would compute the code contributors, but additional people could add themselves in case they contributed translations or performed tests (which usually happen after the release, so it's hard to put this responsibility on the shoulders of the RM). Let me know if you want the contributions to be exclusive to code contributions. Also having other types of contributions means that we drop the announcement mail listing since it could be incomplete. Let me know what you think. My +1 Thanks, Caty

[xwiki-devs] tree view macro stops working after changing XWikiGlobalRights

by edvorg

Hello. I'm trying to grant page delete right for all registered users.I'm doing it by running this code in onEvent method of my ApplicationReadyEventListenerif (contextProvider != null) { XWikiContext context = contextProvider.get(); if (context != null) { XWiki xwiki = context.getWiki(); DocumentReference dr = new DocumentReference("xwiki", "XWiki", "XWikiPreferences"); XWikiDocument doc = xwiki.getDocument(dr, context); BaseObject bo = doc.getObject("XWiki.XWikiGlobalRights", true, context); bo.set("groups", "XWiki.XWikiAllGroup", context); bo.set("levels", "view,comment,edit,script,delete", context); bo.set("users", "", context); bo.set("allow", 1, context); xwiki.saveDocument(doc, context); }}It does the job, but causes a new issue. Tree view on my page stops working showing infinite loading whentrying to expand a node. The browser developer tools shows me this exception: https://gist.github.com/edvorg/acff4a58342edfa3485791a7ba57e172 <https://gist.github.com/edvorg/acff4a58342edfa3485791a7ba57e172> -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/tree-view-macro-stops-working-after-chang… Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-devs] [Contrib][Ratings] Release a bugfix version of the ratings application from the contrib project

by Anca Luca

Hello all, while using the ratings application on an XWiki 6.2.4, we encountered some bugs related to the storage of ratings in a separate space and with the update of a user's rating. We fixed them in these 2 commits: https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-ratings/commit/07758a698d400ed… and https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/application-ratings/commit/cd2c190e22f709e… . Now, the contrib ratings application was indeed "retired" so we normally should not use the contrib repo anymore. However, the work in these 2 commits is about fixing bugs (which might even be affecting the most recent version of ratings - we need to check that, didn't check it yet), and I don't see exactly what other option we have in this case (note that we cannot switch to the "platform ratings" as we're on XWiki 6.2.4 and ratings are in platform since 6.4. So, this is what I propose: * release a 1.3.5 version from the contrib code - if I understand correctly how extensions.xwiki.org works, this release will not appear as "most recent" on the application page - if I understand correctly how maven works, this version will not be considered more recent than 8.1 even if released after, because of the version number. * this means that the version 1.3.5 will be available as an upgrade to the users that use the contrib extension (v 1.3.4 or lower), will be available for new install to all users for which the dependencies requirements are satisfied and will not impact the users which use the platform version of the ratings app. Please let me know if I'm wrong in my reasoning. The advantage of this release would be publishing the bugfix work that we've done and making it available to all users of the ratings extension on versions lower than 6.4. Also, for us the advantage would be not having to deal with a code fork and manage a release / snapshot of this forked code separately. Unless somebody -1s this in the very close feature, we will go ahead with the release. Thanks, Anca P.S. There is a larger discussion to have about how to provide bugfixes on older versions of platform applications without upgrading all the wiki, but this should be in another mail or on IRC (e.g. if we discover that indeed these issues affect ratings app, the platform version, and we make fixes for these bugs, how can we provide these fixes to an XWiki 6.4 user?)
