Many thanks, Sergiu and Ludovic. I tried the 2 samples from Ludovic and they didn't show the numbered lists in the 1.0 b4 version I have. I tried the first sample from Sergiu, it gives the following error: Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page Sandbox.ListTest2 Wrapped Exception: Lexical error: org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.TokenMgrError: Lexical error at line 11, column 0. Encountered: <EOF> after : "" com.xpn.xwiki.XWikiException: Error number 4001 in 4: Error while parsing velocity page Sandbox.ListTest2 Wrapped Exception: Lexical error: org.apache.velocity.runtime.parser.TokenMgrError: Lexical error at line 11, column 0.

So I think in order to mix ordered/unordered list, we need to ask users to follow the syntax in Sergiu's 2nd sample code in the wiki editor and avoid using the "#". Do NOT let the users use the WYSIWYG editor for this kind of mixed-list content because it will distort the correct wiki syntax. So I guess the only issue we are facing is how to produce this correct wiki syntax from the WYSIWYG editor and vice versa - a difficult task. But now at least we have a way to make it work.

Configuration pb: incorrect redirection when authenticating
by Emmanuel Viennet 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Hi, I'm new to XWiki. I've configured it behind Apache (XWiki is running on the same host and listening on tcp/7070). Apache uses a simple RewriteRule to send all trafic to XWiki. That works fine, except when I change the Xwiki configuration to request authentication of all visitors. In this case, the (unauthenticated) visitor is redirected to: http://localhost:7070/xwiki/bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin;jsessionid=22... instead of http://mywiki.fr/xwiki/bin/login/XWiki/XWikiLogin... The same thing occurs when my administrator session expires, but the all other links (including "Log-In) work. Seems to me like a bug or misconfiguration. Any idea ? Thanks for your help Emmanuel

Sorry to repost this question. But I am curious if anyone of you has also experienced the same problem: i.e. if you mix numbered bullet points and regular bullet points, you will lose the numbering and the layout changes quite a bit. The following wiki syntax will produce some unexpected results. *Agenda* # Overview of the ORIS Workplace ** Document checkin/checkout/versions ** Viewing tasks # Resources for help documents{style} ** DIS Workplace->SOP & Policy -> Help ** Portal Info Center ** Discussion Forum in DIS Workplace # DIS Mandatory Training Demo # Excercises I remember seeing posting regarding similar editor (wiki and wysiwyg editor) issues before but haven't seen a definite answer yet.

How to change the Xwiki to other language, such as Chinese.
by ning wang 16 Mar '07

16 Mar '07

Hello all, I want to change the Xwiki to other language, such as Chinese. I read document this adress http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/HowDoIChangeTheDefaultLanguage. But I still don't know how to change to Chinese. Do xwiki has something like language-pack which can put somewhere. Then user can change language conveniently. Or if I have to translate it by myself, can you give me some instructions? Thanks, Wang Ning

Do we need a forum?
by Sergiu Dumitriu 15 Mar '07

15 Mar '07

Hi, We're currently using mailing lists and IRC (and person2person chats) for answering user questions. But: - IRC has no history (yet; when's that bot coming online?) - mailing lists are not that easy to browse and search. Should we make a forum for users? Pro - One place where users can find information, organized by topics - Users are used to posting on forums, and we might get a larger community Con - Soon it will get too crowded, and (some) developers won't have the time to answer all the emails; we need a strong community, and advanced users knowing the code, and for this we need documentation As a developer, I'd stick to mailing lists. As a user, I'd say forum. What's your opinion? -- http://purl.org/net/sergiu

WYSIWYG editor problem
by jimmy＠comkraft.com 14 Mar '07

14 Mar '07

Hi, Folks, We have problems to use bullet points in the WYSIWYG editor (in both beta 4 and beta 5 version). If we mix order bullets (1,2,3,...) with unordered bullets (*...), the WYSIWYG editor shows one layout, wiki editor shows another the View screen shows a 3rd different layout I experienced similar problem in previous versions of xwki (e.g. 0.984 etc). A sample page is at: http://sandbox.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ORIS+KM Please let me know if this is a known bug and I really have to get this problem solved before promoting xwiki in my organization. Thanks -Jimmy

Hi all, New to xwiki and trying to gather all the available support resources.

Both! Time ago I've had the same doubt with a group I have worked with. Sorry, I don't longer manage this group and it seems to me that their forums are dead. The solution that time was a free access license of JiveForum. I think this kind of license doesn't exist any more for JiveForum from JiveSoftware (http://www.jivesoftware.com/) but taking into account that this was some years ago, now you will find nice software with the same or even better features within ObjectWeb founding members!!! And I am sure that if you contact JiveSoftware you could reach some kind of agreement to use an updated release. I withdrew of using this software because the free edition doesn't allow me to manage the forum users database by connecting the software to my LDAP server. By using this software, it was a bit tricky to follow a thread if the title of a message is modified in a reply, but I think the behaviour is acceptable. I think I could create a example in one of my servers at http://xen.net:8090/forum/ or even move it to a more reliable server hosted in the Supercomputing Center of Galicia, Spain. Just my 2 cents!
