I18n resources stored into an XWikiDocument
by Stéphane Laurière 17 Jul '05

17 Jul '05

Hi, I've added another proposed feature + some work implementing it at following URL: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/Improved+XWikiMessageTool+for+manag… The idea is to use a Document for storing i18n resources instead of static files, so that they can be edited online and in a collaborative manner, and have their keys synchronized when the master document is updated. The proposal is also to use the "GNU Portable Object" format (PO) instead of properties file format, as it is widely used for translating software messages. There is however an interface that allows for implementing the tool for any format. Stéphane

Hi All, How do you modify the User Profile and add additional persistent properties? Do I modify the XWiki.XWikiUsers class? Also how do you retrieve these property values? Thanks. Duke

XWiki Roadmap
by Ludovic Dubost 16 Jul '05

16 Jul '05

Hi all, I've updated the XWiki Roadmap to 1.0RC1, then RC2, then XWiki 1.0. There is currently 101 tasks open. If you think some are missing either complain or add the task. It's not clear how we will make the schedule work but at least we have a plan. http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.sy… Ludovic

Has anybody tried using <iframe> in a wiki page? The page renders ok but the Menu and Toolbar does not appear. However if you view the html source, the Menu and Toolbar html content is there. Any ideas? Duke

RE: [SOC] Faqbot (ping?)
by Vincent Massol 14 Jul '05

Hi Jie, Thanks for your email. For XWiki the way I would do it: - Have the FAQBot hosted on a wiki page. This page would have a text input field for letting users enter queries and it would list answers on the page. We should also provide other interfaces like IRC/chat/mailing list. - Have some macros that can be used in the same manner as the {excerpt} macro is used by Confluence. One macro would be used to designate a question, another one for an answer and yet another one for a srai. - Have some pages that are AIML sets. Mark them using a XWiki object class and load them when the FAQBot page is loaded. - Create on the fly AIML sets by aggregating all information scattered in the different pages (using the macros) About the reinforcement. It could be done by different ways. One idea: - On the FAQ bot page we could have a "teach" button where we would ask the user to enter his question and the answer he would have liked. - All these user questions/answers will be added automatically to a User AIML set (a xwiki page containing AIML). This AIML set will also be loaded by the FAQBot page (same as the other AIML sets). - Whenever this user AIML set page is changed a diff email will be sent to the XWiki dev mailing list. The idea is that XWiki community will provide oversight about new questions/answers. The reason for the oversight is double: - to verify users do not enter stupid questions/answers - to possibly refactor the existing AIML sets or pages containing custom tags by removing the user-entered information and placing it where it is more appropriate. Again, all this should be packaged as a XWiki application. Jeremi Joslin should be able to help you about the format (he's the one who's created the notion of XWiki applications). Last, we need to start deciding on the project directory structure in SVN. Could you please come up with a proposal? Also, we're doing a generic FAQBot so I'd like it to remain as separate from XWiki as possible. The generic part and the XWiki specific ones should be cleanly separated in this directory structure. Could you please come up with an architecture diagram fro this? Thanks -Vincent PS: I'm cc-ing the xwiki-dev mailing list. They may have some ideas/remarks/feedback. PPS: I'd need a formal updated proposition from you listing deliverables and planning so that we're clean WRT Google. Including the architecture diagram in the proposal would be nice. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jie Tang [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: lundi 11 juillet 2005 08:01 > To: Vincent Massol > Subject: RE: [SOC] Faqbot (ping?) > > Hi Vincent, > > Hope everything is going well with the baby, and congratulations.

Hi All, Typically I retrieve cookies used for rendering with the OnLoad event in Javascript. Do you know how to do this from a xwiki page or any other alternatives? Thanks Duke
