[xwiki-users] Re: edit page trouble

[wangwh at att.net]

Hi, Vincent, 

This is still an open issue. 

The recent unknown changes on XWiki farm made editing pages difficult, since the edit window is covered by XWiki syntax list. 

Moving just the skin to albatross does not solve the problem, since, as an user, I cannot switch over to albatross, and the new skin does not allow changing menu items and modifying skin. It is not possible for me to really move to albatross. 

Staying in Dodo is not good, since it is hard to edit and hard to get others to use XWiki. 

What other options do we have in using XWiki farm sites? 

Thanks for help.
