[xwiki-notifications] [Issue] Commented: (XWIKI-2529) Impossible to overload macros.vm

[Sergiu Dumitriu (JIRA)]

    [ http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2529?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=27618#action_27618 ] 

Sergiu Dumitriu commented on XWIKI-2529:
----------------------------------------

It would be better to register a custom macros document in XWikiPreferences. I don't think we'll allow to override macros.vm in the future, it was wrong before to let skin documents override it.

I'm +1 for closing this as Won't fix. Vincent?

> It's impossible to overload macros.vm by :
> - adding the "macros.vm" field in the XWiki.XWikiSkins class 
> - changing things in the "macros.vm" field of the XWikiSkins object used for the wiki skin
> - saving it
> The only solution i actually see is directly modify the macros.vm file (but having to change things in the file system is not a good workaround).
