Hi,
This is probably a newbie question but I didn't find any clear answer for
me.
Could someone explain to me how to use "xpage"? For example, when trying to
modify user avatar this code is used:
$doc.getURL('edit', 'xpage=changemyavatar')
I really don't know how this works or where I can find the piece of code
related to this action.
When you view a page (e.g. using an URL like /xwiki/bin/view/Space/Page)
the corresponding XWiki document, i.e. Space.Page, which is stored in
the database, is rendered against a velocity template from the
/templates directory (inside the XWiki war). The template is chosen
based on the action (view, edit, etc.) but you can overwrite this by
specifying xpage=otherTemplate. So in your case
$doc.getURL('edit', 'xpage=changemyavatar')
the returned URL will render $doc using changemyavatar.vm rather than
edit.vm .
Hope this helps,
Marius
