Hi,
Yes it would certainly encourage my users to edit - at the moment
its not
obvious that a page can be edited, so they don't even try and just

a normal uneditable website.
On another wiki the right hand menu bar only appears when you move
your
pointer to the right hand side of the screen, so you effectively
have more
room for viewing the wiki content and only have a menu bar when you
need it
- thought that might be a cool feature for xwiki but how to do it
I'm not
sure.
We have added fullscreen editing. Now I guess we could also add
fullscreen viewing. Shouldn't be too hard to do. Now we only need to
find someone interested in implementing it. Any takers? :)
Thanks

Subject: [xwiki-devs] Display the edit button even when not logged in?
Hi,
I was looking at a wiki tonight and I noticed there was an edit
button even though I wasn't logged in. So I clicked on it, and then I
was told that if I wanted to edit the page I had to register/log in.
I found that this was very nice since:
* Users are tempted to click on the edit button and contribute
* It clearly shows to users who don't know wikis that they can
contribute content
I think we should have this feature in XWiki. I would even go as far
as proposing that it be on by default.
WDYT?
Thanks
