[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Move the XE 1.6M2 release date to next Wednesday
by Vincent Massol 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Hi, Sergiu has asked us on IRC if we could postpone the 1.6M2 release a bit so we're now proposing to release it on Wednesday morning (the 10th) which means all commits should be done for Tuesday afternoon at latest, including running verification tests that all work fine. Each of the committers who have committed stuff should take the time Tuesday afternoon to run XE and verify that the features they have committed work fine as expected. ok with everyone? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Compiling XWiki enterprise with changes in Platform after changes in SVN
by Tiago Rinck Caveden 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Hello all! After the recent changes on the SVN directories, how can I compile the XWiki Enterprise using the changes I have done on XWiki Platform? When I execute the compile it downloads a pre-compiled build of XWiki Platform. Thank you, -- Tiago Rinck Caveden http://caveden.multiply.com

[xwiki-devs] [Rendering] Syntax for definition lists and indentations
by Vincent Massol 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Hi, I'd like to propose the following syntax for definition list and definition terms. This is the syntax the most used by other wikis too. Simple definitions: ; definition title1 : definition1 ; definition title2 : definition2 Nested definitions: ; definition title1 : definition1 ;; definition title2 :: definition2 Indentation: : first level indent :: second level indent ::: third level indent etc WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] [Proposal] Linking to attachments/Insert link to image with new rendering
by Vincent Massol 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Hi, This has been slightly discussed in other thread but not clearly so here's the clear proposal I'd like to implement: 1) Linking to an attachment: [[label>attachment:my.doc]] or simply [[attachment:my.doc]] 2) Image link: [[label>reference>image=my.png]] or simply [[reference>image=my.png]] 3) Linking to an attachment with an image displayed: [[label>attachment:my.doc>image=my.png]] Note 1: In 2) and 3) the label is only used in the HTML "alt" and "title" attributes since the link is on an image. Note 2: The value for attachment:xxx is an attachment name (as in my.doc) or the qualified name of an attachment. I'm proposing "wiki:space.page^attachment" for now. Note 3: The value for image can be: a full URL, an image attachment name (as in my.png) or the qualified name of the image as in: "wiki:space.page^imagename" (same as above). WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

Hi, Sorry for the previous messy mail. Devs lists don't support html format (didn't know that until I tried :P). So, I created a Design page here: http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Design/LightboxImprovements It would be very very nice to have some feedback on this. Thanks for your patience, Evelina

[xwiki-devs] [New WYSIWYG] Tests for user inputs?
by Vincent Massol 04 Sep '08

04 Sep '08

Hi Marius, I'd like to know if we have tests for the new wysiwyg in term of verifying behavior of user inputs. For example yesterday we found that if you enter: "1 Test **bold**" then switched to WYSIWYG editor, moved the cursor somewhere inside "bold", the bold button was not shown as active and you selected the word and clicked on bold you're getting <b><strong>bold</strong></b> instead. Do we have tests for this? We need to be careful not to duplicate tests in the rendering module though. Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-devs] Lightbox Proposal (2)
by Evelina Vrabie 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

Hello all, I was assigned with the refactoring of XWiki lightbox ( http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-1689) As I said in a previous post (http://xwiki.markmail.org/search/?q=lightbox#query:lightbox+page:1+mid:gtqk…) there are 2 options: 1. *Clean up the existing code* PROS CONS The current lightbox is already integrated in users & groups management and...it works so far. The code is messy. There is still a lot of js + css +velocity + html in the same place. The css has some weird hacks for ie and mostly don't work as they should. Honestly, I don't see other big PROS here.... Very limited in terms of features. It doesn't support skins (the css only allows different colors or rounded / square corners). And, IMO it looks ugly. It is difficult to use. To use it for users & groups management I had to modify the code and add some hacks I'm not very happy with. It is not at all extensible (or very hard) and this would take a lot of time. So, I think the lightbox was good so far but it's time for something better. This leads me to the second choice. 2. *Integrate an existing lightbox* There are pleny lightboxes out there, but among the ones that are based on prototype (and scriptaculous, for the effects) the best I've seen are: · Prototype Window: http://prototype-window.xilinus.com/index.html · ModalBox: http://www.wildbit.com/labs/modalbox/ · LightWindow: http://www.stickmanlabs.com/lightwindow/#demos *Prototype Window* *ModalBox* *LightWindow* Small (62 k) Very small (22k) Small (63k) Resizable Resizable Resizable Movable Fixed Fixed Fully skinnable (separate images + css) Customizable through css. Not easy to theme. Supports modal windows. Same. Same Supports all visual Effects of Scriptaculous Supports SlideDown and SlideUp transitions. Customizable transition handlers (?). Supports offline + Ajax content. Same. Same. Has pre-build confirm, altert and info dialogs. Doesn't have. Doesn't have. Supports multi-modal windows. Doesn't. Doesn't. Support to save in cookies the windows status (location -- since is movable, open, close, hidden etc.) Doesn't. Doesn't. Has a tooltip add-on. Doesn't. Doesn't. Doesn't have a photo slideshow included. Doesn't have a photo slideshow integrated. Has a photo slideshow integrated. Also supports multi-galleries. Doesn't support media files. ? Supports all known / used media files. Works on Safari, Camino, Firefox and IE6. Works on IE6, IE7, Firefox 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, Safari, Camino, Opera 8 and 9. Works on Windows Firefox/IE6/IE7/Safari3/Opera & Mac Firefox/Safari/Opera/Netscape. Has a svn, a forum to post bugs / requests for features. Releases are often. Is a Google project, with frequent releases and bug tracking. Has a forum (was down when I checked it). MIT licence MIT licence MIT licence. XWiki possible usage of lightbox: - Users & Groups management - Photo gallery - Blog posts - Ajax forms - Embedded media files or swf animations - .... So, based on my brief summary of these 3 lightboxes, I would like to receive ideas, proposals... since is my second post about the subject and I think is a nice feature to have. Thanks, Evelina

[xwiki-devs] New Panel for creating pages
by Art Yeung 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

Hello all, Currently we have a panel for creating pages. There is a drop down for selecting Page, Space or Blog Post. New pages are created under the current space. I would like to create a panel for creating pages only. So there is a similiar drop down (existing spaces listed) for selecting which Space the page should be created under. Then the text box as usual for the Title. Any idea how to do it please? does the page creation takes an argument for the space location? Many Thanks Art -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/New-Panel-for-creating-pages-tp834125p834125.html Sent from the XWiki- Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
