Hi Anthony, I also liked your proposal and I would be happy to help you with the HTML, CSS, Javascript and Velocity part for the Calendar application. Welcome! for all the GSoC students ;) Raluca.

[xwiki-devs] Mail Auth patch for 1.8

by Lilianne E. Blaze

Hello, Here's the newest version. Basically it bridges XWiki.sendMessage to MailSenderPlugin. It uses Reflection, so no circulars, but it's not exactly pretty. Why it's needed - registration / validation / activation e-mails are still sent via obsolete Apache Commons SmtpClient, so they _do not_ support SMTP AUTH. This is a _major_ problem because due to spam and other abuse less and less hosting providers / network admins allow SMTP without authorization, and those who do are likely to have very insecure infrastructure. I honestly believe this is a MUST HAVE for a secure, spam-free configuration.

Re: [xwiki-devs] Welcoming our GSoC students

by Cristina Scheau

Hello everybody! My name is Cristina Scheau (cristinaS from IRC). I will work on "XWiki Integration with OpenOffice", mentored by Sergiu Dumitriu. My actual design page is : <http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/XWikiIntegrationWithOpenOffice> http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/XWikiIntegrationWithOpenOffice It will be improved. If someone has suggestions about it, please let me know. The project will be an Open Office extension. In a nutshell, my action plan is: 1. Doing some research about the OpenOffice SDK API 2. Discussing with the community about the software archtecture 3. Developing a GUI for XOO extension 4. Implementing a wizard for connecting to a XWiki server and a xwiki navigational panel 5. Implementing the core classes that will be used in the future development 6. Implementing the functionalities: edit existing XWiki pages and add new XWiki pages from OpenOffice 7. Implementing the functionalities: download and upload attachments 8. Implementing : editing attachments supported by Open Office 9. Refining the GUI and adding new small functionalities 10. Improving the project using the feedback from the users. Thank you very much for accepting me!

[xwiki-devs] How to handle XHTML output for semantic properties?

by Vincent Massol

Hi, I'm implementing semantic properties in XWiki Syntax 2.0 http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3320 I've done the wikimodel part and I'm now wondering how what XHTML we should generate in the XHTML renderer (and thus what XHTML should the wysiwyg handle). Here's an example input: %%property1 ((( %%property2 **value2** %%property3 value3 ))) Right now one solution I've found is to serialize the property content in xwiki syntax 2.0 and output it as a comment in the XHTML renderer:  (note: we could have  instead of start/stopproperty, that's a detail) Then the XHTML parser would use the xwiki syntax 2.0 parser on the content of the comment to generate events. Since it's not very trivial to serialize to xwiki syntax in the XHTML renderer I'd like to know what you think or if you have a better idea. I guess we could also do something like: <div class="'xwiki-semantic property1"> <div class="xwiki-semantic property2> <p> <strong>value2</strong> </p> </div> <div class="xwiki-semantic property3"> <p> value3 </p> </div> </div> Note: we would use span for inline semantic properties instead of divs. And then have a CSS with display:none for ".xwiki-semantic" The advantage of this latter solution are: * Easier to implement for the XHTML renderer and XHTML parser * Is in line with HCARD if we want to support it (and we probably do), see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3320?focusedCommentId=39554&page=co… WDYT?

[xwiki-devs] Does DB2 support virtual wiki?

by Norbert Xie

Hi, I am new to XWiki. I was trying to set up virtual wiki using DB2 v9.1 or v9.5. First I installed XWiki Enterprise Manager on Tomcat and set up DB2 following the "Installation DB2" guide. After that I tried to create virtual wikis using XEM. But when I clicked "Create new wiki" link in the XWiki Enterprise Manager and enter "wikitest" as wiki identifier, it kept prompting that "A database with this identifier already exists". But the fact is that I don't have a database named "wikitest" on my DB2. Then I found out that no matter what I typed in the wiki identifier text box, it all prompted "A database with this identifier already exists". This prevents me from creating a virtual wiki. Can anyone help me out? Thanks very much in advance! BTW, I can successfully create virtual wikis on MySQL and access them.

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] - Behavior of the enter key in the new WYSIWYG editor

by Guillaume Lerouge

Hi devs, right now we need to hit enter twice in a row to create a new paragraph. Although I strongly pushed this implementation back in the day, it is proving to be counter-intuitive for almost all users. After a review of a number of other tools (including OpenOffice & online text editors) & reading of posts on the topic, I came to the conclusion that we'd better come back to the previous behavior for the enter key: - Hitting enter once creates a new paragraph - Hitting caps + enter creates a new line in the same paragraph When writing, users tend to write a number of sentences (most of the time between 3 and 7 of them) and then hit enter to create a new paragraph. The issue sometimes encountered is that an user writes a single line, then hits enter to find out that a lot of spacing is entered between both lines. This issue can easily be fixed through CSS in the default XWiki Enterprise distribution (we could use OOo as a source of inspiration for the respective line heights between 2 lines & 2 paragraphs - right now I'd say the height between 2 paragraphs is a bit too big). Additionally, this would "fix" the "issue" currently encountered by users when they input 2 lines and try to make one of them a title: - User inputs line of text, hits enter, inputs 2nd line - User puts caret at the end of first line and selects "Title 1" - Both lines are turned into a title -> weird This behavior is unexpected from an end-user point of view and would be fixed by coming back to the previousbehavior for the enter key. WDYT? Guillaume PS: I'm really sorry about the additional work incurred by my initial lack of understanding of the role of paragraphs -- Guillaume Lerouge Product Manager - XWiki Skype ID : wikibc http://guillaumelerouge.com/

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Introduce new Raw event/block in rendering to replace the current XML events/blocks

by Vincent Massol

Hi, We've had an interesting discussion with Thomas about the need to introduce a new onRawText() event in the rendering module to replace the current begin/endXML() events. Here's the need (discovered by Ludovic): * In some cases we want to inject rendered content directly in the renderer's output. For example there are some cases where we want to inject HTML directly (in order to bypass parsing) What we propose: * Remove the current XML events * Add a onRawText(Syntax syntax) event and a corresponding RawBlock block. A raw text is text injected directly in the rendered output without any parsing/modification. Note that the content depends completely on the rendered used hence the Syntax parameter. * Add a new {{raw syntax="syntaxId"}} macro so that users can inject content in the few cases where it's needed * Modify the HTML Macro to use RawBlock blocks instead of XMLBlock. Also add a new "clean=true|false" parameter (defaut is to clean). When clean = true, we pass the content to the HTML cleaner. <Implementation note>We still need to parse the content when wiki=true. We generate RawBlock blocks when we have startElement/ endElement/CDATA/Comment xml parser events.</Implementation note> This solves a number of issues: * We have a generic way to inject rendered content directly for the special cases when it's needed (ex: the user really wants to inject invalid HTML such as META tags in the body content) * We remove the XML events which were a bit weird to have in the first place. Note that we'll probably need to add some new events in the future such as one for demarcating a set of blocks (which would translate in DIV or SPAN in the XHTML renderer for example). This is needed for example for the Box Macro which is currently using XMLBlock but that's not completely correct. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent
