Ok, I've gotten the first part (including all children in a page) with the following: #set($sql = "where doc.parent = '${doc.web}.${doc.name}'") #foreach($item in $xwiki.searchDocuments($sql)) #includeTopic($item) #end Not sure how to do the rest. - Mark -----Original Message----- From: Lichman, Mark Eugene Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2005 12:28 PM To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: [xwiki-users] replicate sectional editing behavior I'd like to replicate sectional editing behavior. I think a possible way to do this is: 1. create a parent page and include all child pages, 2. for each child include a link to the edit page 3. add a class at the bottom of the parent page to create a new section, maybe automatically creating the link to the new sections edit page Is this possible? Could someon help me figure out how to do this, i.e. how to include all child page in a parent and create the necessaryv class. Thanks Much, - Mark Lichman

Xwiki Logo
by Tim Suter 22 Sep '05

22 Sep '05

Can someone explain how to change the xwiki logo in the upper left corner of the pages so that all of them will be changed? I also want to remove that gradient blue bar out of there so I can just put my company logo on it and not worry about it looking funky. Is it really as difficult as the howto on the xwiki.org site suggests or has someone developed a quick and dirty howto on this? I am new at CSS and inevitably will break something if I go messing with the skins. Peace be with all of you, Tim Suter

Is it possible to have different permissions on a object Vs the page the object lives on? For example, if I have an instance of a custom class attached to a page, can I allow users to edit the page, but prevent them from editing (or even viewing) the object? Matt

How to set the RSS feed to include news description?
by YEUNG, HOWARD (CONTRACTOR) 22 Sep '05

Hi there, I think this is a way. For example I can limit the display to 5 by "count=5". How can I set it to include description? "full=true" doesn't seem to work. Thanks in advance. Howard

Also, this file has some of the different interface items labeled http://pause-java.com/xwiki/doc/doc-xwiki.jpg Even if you don't know css, all that's needed to change the color at least is the line background-colo: #(6 digit html color code, check the net to see color codes) - Mark Lichman -----Original Message----- From: kenk(a)ucar.edu [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2005 11:53 AM To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: [xwiki-users] Re: Xwiki Logo > Can someone explain how to change the xwiki logo in the upper left > corner of the pages so that all of them will be changed? go to this page: http://<yourdomain.com>/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/MySkin and look at the attachments, you see the graphic. And on 'Edit this skin' you'll see the style.css for logo and other things. Maybe that border too, but I don't know css either.

To modify the logo - Make your new logo (the default logo size is 150x40) - Drop the file into ../xwiki/skins/default - modify the last line of style.css file to have your logo filename To modify the background color of the heading bar (make it white say) - in xwiki.css add the folowing line to the #banner background-color:#ffffff; if you want to change the height of the top heading/banner/logo - in xwiki.css modify #banner height for the desired pixel height easiest way to ensure consistent display of the logo if you want to change the logo size is - modify the following line in header.vm <img src="$logourl" alt="XWiki" width="150" height="40"/> to have the proper width and height of your logo. Make sure that the height is no bigger than the banner height in xwiki.css - Mark Lichman Note: if your logo width is smaller than the default, you will likely have a tiled logo display unless you remove background doubling. Cheap way to solve this for all browsers is to shrink the logo size in header.vm -----Original Message----- From: Tim Suter [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, September 22, 2005 11:34 AM To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: [xwiki-users] Xwiki Logo Can someone explain how to change the xwiki logo in the upper left corner of the pages so that all of them will be changed?

Associations between classes
by Yves Langisch 22 Sep '05

22 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
