Associations between classes
by Yves Langisch 23 Sep '05

23 Sep '05

Hi I'm looking for a way to define some kind of associations between classes. Let me explain by an example what I mean exactly: I want to collect structured data for countries and its regions. To achieve this I define to classes, CountryClass and a RegionClass (incl. the sheets and templates). Now the user should be able to create new country objects _and_ he should have the possibility (in the form itself) to define which regions belong to a country. I tried to achieve this by adding a database list property to the country class with an appropriate hibernate query which selects all region documents. This let the user select one or more regions for a country. This is fine so far but - Is there any more general or a better way to achieve this associations (e.g. without hibernate queries)? - How can I adapt my ClassSheet so that the selected region associations are hyperlinked to the appropriate region objects? Thanks Yves

Add collaborative categorization in xwiki
by vtmagnard＠free.fr 22 Sep '05

22 Sep '05

All, I have a project to add new Knowledge Management functionalities in xwiki, the first one I have selected is the collaborative categorization also known as folksonomy. The point is to allow the wiki users to categorize the wiki topic with keywords as what you can do in http://del.icio.us/ . Does anybody have ideas on this subject? Thierry Magnard

How to integrate another rendering engine (wikipedia style)?
by Axel 19 Sep '05

19 Sep '05

Hi I'm new to XWiki and would like to know, how can I integrate another rendering engine into XWiki (especially Wikipedia rendering based on Radeox)? Is there an online guide available? Can someone point me to the main interesting classes? Is there a "synchronizing API" with another XWiki instance available? Does someone has experience in integrating XWiki into a roller blog system? -- Axel Kramer http://www.plog4u.org - Wikipedia Eclipse Plugin http://www.bliki.info

Threaded comments
by Stéphane Laurière 15 Sep '05

15 Sep '05

We've made a modest contribution to the cathedral: threaded comments, committed in the xwiki-sandbox. It mainly consists in the addition of the class "com.xpn.xwiki.util.TreeNode" used for storing a tree structure composed of XWiki objects linked to one another via any given property. In the case of XWikiComments, that property is the "replyto" property. The display is managed by a CSSed list, see the addition to xwiki.css and wiki.css, as well as a Groovy script available in xwiki-sandbox/threaded-comments as well. See the feature in action at this page for instance: http://club.mandriva.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SpreadAcademia Stéphane and Christophe at your disposal for further info! -- Stéphane Laurière slauriere(a)mandriva.com Mandriva Club - http://club.mandriva.com Mandrakesoft becomes Mandriva!

gzipped tinymce
by Matthew Conway 15 Sep '05

15 Sep '05

I wrote a groovy script for xwiki which allows one to speed up use of tinymce by gzipping all the javascript files into a single stream - based on the tiny_mce_gzip.php script available from tinymce. I wasn't sure where to put it in the wiiki, so figured I'd post it here :) Haven't tried it with the wysiwyg stuff Pedro is working on yet, but it will probably need some tweaking. Matt

Rights Management Doc
by Cody Burleson 15 Sep '05

15 Sep '05

I took the FAQ on Rights Management and made a first-pass attempt to improve it. It would help if someone could look at it and make sure I have not misunderstood anything. It needs more work. This is just step one. http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Rights+Management Also, i would LOVE to rewrite the following section, but in order to do so, i would need to see the actual code that does this routine. Does anyone know where the code behind this part is? ... Evaluation Order Here 'user' means 'user or a group containing the user': 1. Check if the user has the 'admin' right at the XWiki level -> if so continue... 2. Check if the user has the 'admin' right at the Space level -> if so continue... 3. Check if the user is denied access to the current document through the 'deny' right for the document -> if so drop out negatively. If not, then if a deny right exists for others users remember it. 4. Check if the user is allowed access to the current document through the 'allow' right in the document -> if so drop out positively. If not, then if a deny right exists for others users remember it. 5. Check if the user is denied access to the wiki space through the 'deny' right in the WebPreferences document for that space -> if so drop out negatively. If not, then if a deny right exists for others users remember it. 6. Check if the user is allowed access to the wiki space through the 'allow' right in the WebPreferences document for that space -> if so drop out positively. If not, then if a deny right exists for others users remember it. 7. Check if the user is denied access at the XWiki level through the 'deny' right in the XWiki.XWikiPreferences document -> if so drop out negatively. If not, then if a deny right exists for others users remember it. 8. Check if the user is allowed access at the XWiki level through the 'allow' right in the XWiki.XWikiPreferences document -> if so drop out positively. If not, then if a deny right exists for others users remember it. ================================== Cody Burleson IBM, Business Consulting Services On Demand Workplaces "Simplifying access to content, applications, people and processes."
