[xwiki-users] Restoring a broken XWikiSkins class

[Vincent Massol]

Hi Peter,

 

Have you tried using the « Show History » feature and then clicking on
Rollback to restore a previous version?

 

Thanks

Subject: [xwiki-users] Restoring a broken XWikiSkins class

 

Hey everyone,

 

Sorry to be posting yet again, but
  I seem to have broken my XWikiSkins
class and am looking for a way to restore it to the out-of-box default.  Can
this be done easily?

 

The story is this:

 

I’ve been trying to set up a new skin for my XWiki instance, based on the
default one.  This has been tricky since the default skin imports a bunch of
extra CSS files which are not shown in the skin-editor form that XWiki uses.
I edited the XWikiSkins class to add some of these files to the display.

 

But that didn’t work as well as I’d hoped, so I wanted to delete these
properties from the XWikiSkins class.  Seeing nothing in the UI to do that,
I tried clearing all the form fields and saving it.  I got an error that
property names can only be “A-Za-z0-9”, which makes sense.  However, it
looks like something went really wrong behind the scenes.  When I viewed
this class again, it was missing all of the properties except for one (“Page
Menu”).  This seems like a serious bug in the Class Editor, but I am less
concerned about that than I am about getting the skins class back to normal.

 

So, is there any easy way to do this?

 

Thanks again,

 

- Peter
