[xwiki-users] Linking an image to larger image or floating the image on top??
by Kaya Saman 03 Sep '10

03 Sep '10

Hi, I've attached 2 images to a page of which I want to have the smaller image (web image) displayed on the actual page but when clicked on a larger image appearing. The other thing I was considering to do would be to float the larger version of the image over the smaller one when the mouse cursor roles over the smaller image. Sort of like on the Google search engine if you understand what I'm tying to say?? I've had a look here: http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Macros/ImageMacro which looks interesting but then I read through this: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/Attachments which states that the *image macro* isn't needed needed anymore when using XWiki 2.0 syntax..... I am a little confused as to how to go about this. It is quite easy to create a new page and attach the larger image in there but I think that defeats the purpose no?? Basically it's the wrong way of doing things I feel?? Any advise would be really great. Thanks!! Kaya

[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] LDAP issues with XEM
by Alex Bradbeer 02 Sep '10

02 Sep '10

Hi everyone. 2 issues (sort of related): 1: We have installed XEM 2.4 on Windows Server 2003 using Jetty and mySQL 5, and have successfully got LDAP to work on the main wiki (authenticating against Active Directory) - the user's first/last name appears in the top right (and if they navigate to their profile, the AD info is there). However, when we create a child/sub wiki (and import the standard .xar), the LDAP authentication appears to work, but the same level of user information is not pulled through (only the username appears - no first name, last name or profile details etc). Is there something else we need to set up? Ideally we would like to set the entire farm up so that if a user logs into one, they had their accounts made in each. Alternatively, the ability to import all users and set up accounts would be great - we can then pre-allocate users to specific spaces etc (any news on re-developing the 'Import users from LDAP' plugin?!). We've found the xwiki.preferences class objects page - but are a bit confused! 2: In addition, the process of creating child wikis seems to have an issue with the main administrator (Admin/admin) - when logged in (to one of the child wikis) the 'Preferences' and 'Profile' menu items (in the top right) refer to 'localhost', not the assigned alias/dns... Can anyone point me in the right direction?! (Apologies if this seems a bit of a locked-down approach to using wikis - but as an educational institution, we need to keep the editing of content secure!).

[xwiki-users] OpenOffice Server - "Inadequate privileges."
by Lockie 02 Sep '10

02 Sep '10

Hello all, In the OpenOffice Server preferences I'm recieving an "Inadequate privileges" error, and I have no idea why. I am definitely logged in as the administrator, and I definitely have all the boxes ticked in Rights. I'm using the colibri skin, and I'll outline what I did below: I installed OpenOffice on our Windows server using http://code.google.com/p/openmeetings/wiki/OpenOfficeConverter#Windows these instructions . After doing the soffice.exe test in the command prompt and testing it with: netstat -anp tcp, I get the correct response:: TCP 127.0.0.1:8100 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING, so in theory it should be running properly. My WEB-INF\xwiki.properties file has remained as default, except I changed the paths since the defaults weren't working. They are as follows #-# [Since 1.8RC3] #-# Path to openoffice installation (serverType:0 only). #-# If no path is provided, a default value will be calculated based on the operating environment. openoffice.homePath=C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice.org 3 #-# [Since 1.8RC3] #-# Path to openoffice execution profile (serverType:0 only). #-# If no path is provided, a default value will be calculated based on the operating environment. openoffice.profilePath=C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice.org 3\OpenOffice.org\3 The second one is long like that because I copied and pasted the user file from the default which directed to "\\BWSRVR.CORP\Public\individuals\Administrator\Application Data\OpenOffice.org\3" since it was returning the error still, into the Program Files one on the local drive, but that didn't seem to change anything. If I try doing Start, Stop, or Restart Server, I get that annoying Inadequate privileges box. So, the OpenOffice preferences page looks like this: --------------------- Inadequate privileges. --------------------- Server type Internally managed (local) Server port 8100 Auto start Yes Server path C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice.org 3 Server profile C:\Program Files (x86)\OpenOffice.org 3\OpenOffice.org\3 Server state Not connected Actions []Start server (connect) []Stop server (disconnect) []Restart server I've been fiddling with different settings (but making sure I return them to the defaults after) and searching around on the net, but I don't know what else to try, and I really want this feature to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Lockie. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/OpenOffice-Server-Inadequate-privileges-t… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[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!
