[xwiki-users] SVGMacro "Error This template does not exist" when editing after re-importing
by jkao 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

I'm trying to use the SVGMacro (2.0) in my XWiki Enterprise 2.5M2. I got editing working, but in an ill-advised experiment trying to change the underlying svg-edit to 2.5.1 by blindly changing the attachment on the SVGMacro page, the edit capability broke. So I deleted all 3 of the pages (and emptied the trash) relating to the SVGMacro, and then re-imported from the XAR. However, now whenever I attempt to edit an SVG, I will get the Modal Box popup, but the main pane contains the message: "Error This template does not exist". Does someone know what the correct procedure (I presume I'm doing something wrong) to wipe and restore-from-scratch this macro? Thanks! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/SVGMacro-Error-This-template-does-not-exi… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] One wiki in two different layouts
by Zuzana Zapletalova 14 Oct '10

14 Oct '10

Hello, I would like to ask you about having one instance of xwiki (one database) in two different layouts. I use xwiki for documentation of our product and I need to have two different layouts of xwiki. The first one with all navigation and information panels and the second one only in a simple style without all these panels (e.g. similar to print style (print.css) in xwiki). Do you know if it is possible to have one instance (one database) of xwiki in these two different layouts? Thank you very much for your answer, Zuzana Zapletalova.

[xwiki-users] Skin Mapping doesn't work in Jetty after Short URL
by myaccount 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hello, Thanks for the great software,, I downloaded and installed "xwiki-enterprise-installer-windows-2.4.exe" out of the box (means I'm using Jetty),, then I went through the cool "Short URL" article: "http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/ShortURLs" All what I made different, was copying the application files from "xwiki" folder to "root" folder,, (both inside webapps) to be able to run it from the root. I could successfully run the application using my short url "http://domain.com/" but the Skins mapping is not working at all,, I spent several painful hours trying to get it work, but all in vain. When I used the script in the article .................... <servlet> <servlet-name>defaultSkins</servlet-name> <servlet-class>org.mortbay.jetty.servlet.Default</servlet-class> <init-param> <param-name>relativeResourceBase</param-name> <param-value>skins</param-value> </init-param> <load-on-startup>1</load-on-startup> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>defaultSkins</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/skins/*</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> ...... it makes the whole application fails on this error ........... HTTP ERROR: 503 Problem accessing /. Reason: SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE ........ so I tried "org.mortbay.jetty.servlet.DefaultServlet" instead then the error was gone but the skins directory is still not mapped !!! Please help ! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Skin-Mapping-doesn-t-work-in-Jetty-after-… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] LDAP user export ?
by Piotr Dziubecki 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hello again, I've created new post to not to confuse future readers. As we know, importing users works well but what about synchronizing them in the opposite way, I mean: xwiki -> ldap. Do you have something like that or maybe planning to introduce such a feature ? I think it could be useful - especially in case of updating user personal data. Of course, if this mode of synchronization is already available, I will be grateful for any link to that topic. Regards, Piotr

[xwiki-users] LDAP user import vs registering new user
by Piotr Dziubecki 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hi, I'm testing the ldap features of xwiki and have a question regarding importing /registering new user. I managed to setup ldap authentication with user import and group mapping. The question is connected with this configuration flag: #-# Specifies the LDAP attribute containing the identifier to be used as the XWiki name (default=cn) xwiki.authentication.ldap.UID_attr=mail What I would achieve is a user authentication with his mail/password ( which is pretty common nowadays ). It works with ldap and after a successful authentication with i.e. mail = bruno(a)7cogs.com, a new user is created with the following value: username = bruno@7cogscom I assume that the 'dot' is not allowed to be used in the username string ? In my scenario there will be also a need for registering new users in a traditional (xwiki ) way but it seems to be impossible to provide a mail as a username ( even though the client side validation seems to not complain about that initially ): Invalid username provided. Please use only letters from the latin alphabet, numbers, and the underscore character. Do you have any clues how to achieve that ? maybe it's possible to set a flag in xwiki config similar to the ldap solution ( identifier to be used as the XWiki name ).. Thanks in advance, Piotr

[xwiki-users] Using a Variable in the WindowsPath Macro
by Lockie 12 Oct '10

12 Oct '10

Hi all, I made a form that a user uses to manually list files stored on the local network drive, that are then displayed in a table. It works fine but to get the link to be clickable you have to copy/paste the windowsPath macro into the inline form field. I am wondering how I can put the variable for the file into the windowsPath macro so its clickable in the table, like this (only it doesn't work): ... <td>{{windowsPath share="$formObj.file" name="Link"/}}</td> ... I've tried a few things out but I'm not really sure on how to get it working. Do I have to create an entirely new macro? Thanks, Lockie -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Using-a-Variable-in-the-WindowsPath-Macro… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Dynamic object properties loading into WYSIWYG editor
by Taras Fed'kiv 11 Oct '10

11 Oct '10

Hi, I'm trying to implement editing of object properties in WYSIWYG editor and there is some questions about it's functionality: 1. On page I have a grid which displays custom objects attached to the it and WYSIWYG editor below the grid, used for editing this objects. By clicking on a row - selected objects property should be loaded into WYSIWYG editor and user can easily modify and save it. So the question is - Is it possible to create single WYSIWYG editor on the page and then dynamically(using JavaScript) load different properties from different objects into it? 2. Can I load some abstract text which is not an object property into WYSIWYG editor? 3. It seems that example provided on the following page doesn't work. http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Modules/WysiwygEditorModule#HLoadondem… May be the reason is that request parameter 'key=fake' is incorrect. BTW, what does this parameter mean? Thank you, Taras

[xwiki-users] Paragraph ( heading ) editing problem H3 - H6
by Piotr Dziubecki 11 Oct '10

11 Oct '10

Hi, I'm testing my XWiki instance and noticed that I can edit headings from H1, H2 levels, and the H3 - H6 are just treated like a text formatting. Is that intended behavior ? I found an old bug report: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-4275?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin… its status is fixed but somehow it's still an issue for me. My XWiki version: XWiki Enterprise 2.4.3.31377 Is there any option to enable editing those h3-h6 headings as well ? Regards, Piotr
