[xwiki-users] Changed upload_maxsize but still can't attach larger than 10 MB
by Samuel Lee 09 Sep '10

09 Sep '10

Hello, I've gone to the XWikipreferences, then edit > Class. Here's what is set: name: upload_maxsize Pretty Name: Maximum Upload Size x No Number: 53 Number Type: long Size: 200 Error: XWiki has a default limit of around 10Mb for attached files. This limit can be changed using the upload_maxsize parameter. Check the FAQ for more information. Any ideas?

[xwiki-users] Calendar Application on XE 2.4 not working properly
by Ramon Gomes Brandão - SERINT 06 Sep '10

06 Sep '10

Hi, I've Just installed Calendar Plugin and Calendar Application on my XE 2.4 instance. It works when I point to xwiki/bin/view/Main/EventCalendar/, but its look and feel is far away of that smooth one shown in the Calendar Application home page (http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/CalendarApplication) The calendar appears as a very simple and rough table, its cells don't have a prefixed size (nothing more than just the length of the two digits number of the day) and it does not show the PDF creation link. It also doesn't mark the "today" day on the calendar. I've checked the source code and it seems that the $cview.getHTMLCalendar($cparams, "") method isn't building a smooth calendar. How can I fix this? Doesn't XE 2.4 contain an event calendar by default? If so, how can I access it? I'm using the colibri skin. Regards, Ramon Gomes Brandão

[xwiki-users] Centrally aligning tables?? and creating directory tree
by Kaya Saman 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

Hi there, finally after managing to get XWiki installed on my FreeBSD system I am trying to create a tree where information will go under according to the specific type and heading: Basically what I'm after it this: Main -> Howto's -> FreeBSD Solaris OpenSolaris Linux So far I managed to get the desired affect by: creating a new space called Howto's and then linking in the rest of the items as pages spanning downwards from the main root in the tree.... is this correct or can I created spaces within spaces?? Also I am wondering how to centrally align a table? I have attempted the following syntax as I couldn't find any graphic buttons on the editor to perform the task: (% style="table-align=center" %) |[[[[image:freebsdlogo2.png||alt="freebsdlogo.png" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400"]]>>FreeBSD]] |[[[[image:logomed2.jpg||alt="logomed.jpg" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400"]]>>Linux]] |[[[[image:solarislogo2.png||alt="solarislogo.png" height="208" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400"]]>>Solaris]]|[[[[image:OpenSolarisLogo2.gif||alt="OpenSolarisLogo.gif" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400"]]>>OpenSolaris]] This however doesn't work as the table is still left aligned??? Any advise is much appreciated as I am struggling to find much documentation on this wiki at all and what is around seems to be really lean. If I manage to get as far as creating what I want with a custom look then I will definitely create a manual on it as that's my intention for the WiKi in the first place!! Many thanks, Kaya

[xwiki-users] Mindmap macro
by Maxime Mathieu 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

I just discovered the Freemind macro and I'm very happy. This macro displays an attached freemind file in a wiki page using a flash component. It works fine, and the installation is straightforward. Thank you Fabio Mancinelli. A valuable enhancement would be to specify the height of the map as a parameter of the macro. I found a way to do it using the following snippet : (% id="flashcontent" style="height:800px" %)((( {{freemind map="FileName"/}} ))) It works but it's clearly dirty, it generates 2 div with the same id. If you have a better idea, I'll be happy to read you. Regards, Maxime

[xwiki-users] XWQL in DatabaseLists
by Colesnicov Eugen 01 Sep '10

01 Sep '10

When I create my own class with propertie with have type=DatabaseList - often, I cannot use simpe "XWiki Class Name" - I need to specify HibernateQuery. Unfortunately, I cannot use XWQL, only HQL I tried to put my XWQL query in a field of HibernateQuery - but no result (XWQL query was tested and is ok). For the developers - Are you planning to implement XWQL in a DatabaseLists? It will be great, because XWQL is more simple, shortly and naturally supporting XWiki data model! Or, maybe right now exists some possibilities to use XWQL in a DatabaseLists? -- Thanks beforehand!

[xwiki-users] RES: FWD: TAG Application with international characters
by Ramon Gomes Brandão - SERINT 31 Aug '10

Hi Alex, Sorry, I forgot to mention this information. I'm using a clean install of the latest build of XWiki Enterprise (2.4.30451), running on JBoss 4.3 and MySQL 5.0, with Apache 2.0. Using Firefox 3.6.8 and IE 8. Something related to char encoding of DB/JBoss/Apache? Which one?

[xwiki-users] Help needed with customizing of Toucan skin
by Kaya Saman 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi, I am attempting to customize the toucan by putting a new background in and changing the logo. The logo is the easy part with the change happening in the Administration GUI under Presentation -> Skin Customization -> Logo The rest I'm a bit unsure about!! I have attempted to deconstruct the toucan.css file under the skins directory in the webapp and then build it back together. I did get some results but it was highly unstable as after a second edit things started going funny. I managed to get a background showing up which was great but it was pretty slow as the image was too large, I then tried a smaller image which didn't show at all as the background went completely white?? I can confirm however the parts that make up the background are: H4x4-GRAY.png bgxleft-GRAY.png bgx-GRAY.png ################# bg-GRAY3.png and bg-GRAY.png seem to just be little lines in the middle of the page so no need to alter those. What I would really like to do is put a little picture to the right of the logo, which seems to be the: #companylogo { width 740px; } ... portion. I added the code: background-image: url($xwiki.getSkinFile("myimage.png")); only with no luck whatsoever?? Also how to remove the right and left panels and just make one 'big' background instead?? - I have an image for this but at ~800kB it's a bit large so what I will need to do is lower the size then stretch it over the screen. Is this possible?? Many thanks, Kaya

[xwiki-users] administering users in a XWiki Farm
by [Ricardo Rodriguez] eBioTIC. 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi, xwikiers! I am sure I am missing some clear point, but I am not able to find documentation on how administer users in a XWiki Farm. My basic concern relates with global users being included in virtual wikis' groups. I've reached this document... http://manager.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/ Could it be welcome a link to User and Group Management there and to complete this document to include management in a xwiki farm? Am I missing anything obvious? Thanks for your help! Ricardo -- Ricardo Rodríguez CTO eBioTIC. Life Sciences, Data Modeling and Information Management Systems
