Hi, I'm trying to embed the Wiki in a portal application. When editing a Wiki page, the Wiki takes over the browser window, which is not wanted. is there some option to turn off fullscreen editing in the normal Wiki editor? Or do I need to change the skin for that? Thanks, J.L.Simon

You will probable need to change the skin for that. Which portal are you trying to embed in ? Is this a JSR 168 Portal ? Because we have a portal mode (which probably needs additional adjustments) which allows the template to acccess a variable ($context.getMode()) to know if you are in portal mode or web mode. This can allow you to make changes that leave the normal web mode untouched. Ludovic Juergen Lorenz Simon a écrit :

The portal is of our own making. It's basically a WebObjects web application. XWiki is embedded in an iframe. This portal mode, is it only a state variable for the template, or does it offer anything else? Jürgen

It's only a state variable that is used by the template. But this variable is set when running as JSR168. It's not set when running in an IFRAME. It's not easy for XWiki to know it's running in an iframe. One solution is to run it using a specific skin. For this you can: 1/ create skin called 'portalskin' in the skins directory or as a skin in your wiki. Make your skin not put headers, footers or anything you don't want to appear. 2/ make the skin persistent by calling $context.setLinksQueryString("skin=portalskin") in a modified xwikivars.vm (so this is used by all templates) 3/ using the ?skin=portalskin parameter when you embed it in an iframe Alternatively if you only use XWiki inside your portal, then you can set the skin as the default for your wiki. In this case you won't have the normal skin when running out of the portal. Ludovic Juergen Lorenz Simon a écrit :
