Hi there,
I'm trying to pilot XWiki at my organisation here in the UK.
I've had to restricted access so users have to login to view the wiki. When
they initially login they are presented with a blank page with a message
saying they can't edit it - this doesn't give a good impression to first
time users!
How do I ensure the first page they see is Main.WebHome or some other
specific page?
The WYSIWYG editor is quite important to our first time users - is the
problem fixed where you type in paragraphs in the editor and then when you
go and reedit them the paragraphs are concatenated into one paragraph - it
really annoys my users!
Keep up the good work - XWiki is really started to look good.
Regards,
Richard Goldring

Hello,
Up to now we only have pages ans spaces to structure information. I
would like to suggest to have another level of structuration, as we
can have for instance in MindMaps (MindManager) or in
http://www.w3schools.com/ or even in formalisms like SADT(IDEF0).
The idea is to have a tree of plans, each plan can have pages
structured into spaces, but each plan is itself structured into a
tree.
In mind manager, each node can be refined in a sub-tree and we can
navigate easily from one level to another one.
In http://www.w3schools.com/, the information is well presented on
the left side of the site as spaces containing pages. Somes pages are
themselves subplan, and when we clik on the, we enter in the sub tree
with the same kind of presentation... It is really clear, and
efficiant... I've made 5 years ago a generator in Mindmanager to
generate from the mind map automaticcaly an intranet following the
ruels edicted for w3schools. It was actually very convenient .

Hello,
I'm quite new with Xwiki, evenif I used tu use wikis since a long
time, especially swiki (dyed), editme wiki, or mediawiki. I would like
to make a little remark about users and groups administration (and
maybe the whole administration) ; the ergonomy is not very good up to
now, compared to other tools (for instance edit me wiki)... I've seen
that you started to develop modules with GWT, and it isa good thing.
Maybe a more friendly manner to administrate users and groups could be
good.
Best regards
Xavier
Anyone know how to make XWiki look like Wikipedia? I know, I know what you
are thinking. But I have a request from someone to make it look like that.
Any ideas?
Hi,
On my "main" side table, I would like to be able to modify exactly what gets
placed in there. Currently, there is a mix of some static links such as
"All Docs"
"Dashboard"
"delete space"
as well as whenever I create a new page those links go there as well. Can
the content for this side table be customizable by me (the admin) ?
Also, I would like to remove the "Sandbox" side table as well.
Thanks,
Josh
Folks,
I am trying to pull the source code for xwki 1.1 and build it. However,
after eluding from this list for several month, I no longer knows how to
build it. I built xwiki 1.0 before via ant and I have used maven 2 before,
but I am not quite sure which module should I checkout and choose if I just
want to get the xwiki application(not the tools or add on modules).
I have browsed the documentations from xwiki.org's community site, but I am
not quite sure where should I start. My questions are the following:
1. What are the minimum set of modules should I choose to download for just
the xwiki web application? (not the panels, tools, plugins etc. just the
core application which can build a .war like xwiki 1.0 or 0.984) The xwiki
platform or xwiki product?
2. I used to be able to download a specific release vesion of the source
code, but now I cannot find any version tagged by 1.1 but checking the
history of xwiki-platform or xwiki-products
3. Is ant build still supported or maven 2 is required now?
This topic might have been discussed before but I seem not able to find
them. Any of your help is highly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
I use Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.2.0 - 64bi
I have two databases on two different platforms. ( One for devs and one for production. )
On my dev database I have a schema/user named XWIKI/XWIKI
On my prod database I have a schema/user named WIKI9/WIKI9
XWIKI 1.0 is installed on both platforms and it works very nicely.
Planning to upgrade to version 1.1, I installed XWIKI 1.1 on the dev platform. It works well. I decided to install it on my prod platform, it failed.
I think, xwiki 1.1 expects a schema named XWIKI. ( As detailed in the oracle install page. http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/InstallationOracle ).
I'm going to ask our DBA to change the schema/user name but it worked well with xwiki 1.0
Best regards.

I just installed the Windows version of XWiki, however, I need to do a proof
of concept with it and change things such as the front page etc. I could not
find and administrative user to set this up. Any help is appreciated.
Hi XWiki users,
I'd like to limit the logon time for users visiting our experimental
XWiki site, and want TomCat to take care of that!
>From the Web I understand that one should disable the cookies, and let
TomCat take care of that by modifying the session-timeout tag in the
conf/web.xml file.
Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work (I use version 1.0.3342)! When
I disable the cookies, xwiki keeps asking the user to logon, whenever a
link to a page is selected!
Anybody any idea? Thanks!
Regards,
Gerard

Hello,
I would like to know how the option "with history" in the import tool
should be understood ?
Does it mean :
- history of existing pages will be preserved (new revision
added for last revision of imported page)
- history of imported pages will be preserved and replace local
pages history
- history of imported pages will be preserved as well as local
pages history (concatenation)
I added a line for this in the admin guide, but need to detail the exact
way it works (btw I need to be sure of how it works before importing
pages in my own wiki ;-) )

Thanks,
