[xwiki-users] Is the Logo on the login page changeable?
by Werner Greßhoff 18 Jul '11

18 Jul '11

Hello, customization of skins is a very fine solution for changing page structures, cause it survives updates. In pre XWiki 3.1 we edited the global.vm of the colibri skin and our header was shown on all pages, including the login. In XWiki 3.1 there is no global.vm (in colibri) anymore and the skin customizing doesn't work on the login page, so how can we change that page, too? -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Werner Greßhoff Dezernat 2 - Digitale Dienste Universitäts- und Landesbibliothek Münster

Hi, I would like to conditional show pages based on request parameter But i'm struggling with the fact if there is not a request parameter {{velocity}} #if("$request.cntryCode" != "es") {{include document="Sandbox.TryCr"/}} #else {{include document="Sandbox.TryEs"/}} #end {{/velocity}} So if the request parameter cntryCode is not "es" (so anything else) show first page TryCr otherwise show page TryEs But what if no parameter is givven; then I would like to show TryEs (assume parameter was "es" Any suggestions second question; how can i best use the parameter to avoid extensive coding; Instead of #if("$request.cntryCode" != "cr") {{include document="Sandbox.Trycr"/}} #elseif("$request.cntryCode" != "hn") {{include document="Sandbox.Tryhn"/}} #elseif("$request.cntryCode" != "el") {{include document="Sandbox.Tryel"/}} #elseif("$request.cntryCode" != "ng") {{include document="Sandbox.Tryng"/}} #else {{include document="Sandbox.TryEs"/}} #end I would only think i need to concatenate the parameter to the end of the documentname Tryxx to get the good document Hope somebody can help me Gerritjan

[xwiki-users] Multiple Userrights per Page
by Wouter de Vos 15 Jul '11

15 Jul '11

Hi All, I have a bit of newby question which affects userrights. I have a page with content, which different usergroups will look at. I want that Usergroup A only sees the top bit of the page, and Usergroup B to see the whole page (top and bottom). Can I do this over Rightsmanagement? So that Group A will only see some Content of the Page, and Group B will see the total Content. One of the reasons why I want this, is that I do not want that Group A sees that there is more content which they cannot access. I was thinking of using the include makro here, but it would be far easier to have just one single document and use Rightsmanagent to determine who sees what on the page. I hope I expressed my question clearly, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Wouter

[xwiki-users] Parent/Child Relationships
by Wouter de Vos 15 Jul '11

15 Jul '11

Hi all, I have a problem with the parent child relationships. The problem has allready been an issue (see detailed information below) and a solution has been given by Sergiu Dumitriu, but this solution does not seem to work for me. Whenever I leave out the space from the parent, my child has no parents at all anymore, it does not automatically get parents assigned. Basicly what I want to do is set up mutliple spaces, where some pages are used in more than only one space. I want that the users stay in their respective space, but see the pages form other spaces sometimes. What works great for this is the include macro, but the bigger my wiki gets, the more includes I have and this might get a bit chaotic in the future. A much cleaner solution would be to just link from one Space.Page to another, but when I do this my breadcrumb navigation does not follow, since I have the Parent Child issue unsolved. I know it must work, I just dont know how to get it to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can leave out the space from the parent, as in "Main". This will always resolve to the "Main" document in the current space, thus A.Main when the document is in the space A, B.Main when in space B. -- Sergiu Dumitriu from: http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2010-May/020659.html

[xwiki-users] Linking to files on project network drive
by goldring, richard 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

Hi, Does anyone know how to add links to files on a project network drive? We have a lot of files on our network drives and there's a reluctance to attach all the files into the wiki. So to ease people into using the wiki it would be nice to allow them to easily link out to external files. Currently XWiki allows users to link to other wiki pages, other web pages or attached files but not external files .... is there a way provide a means to add links to external files?

[xwiki-users] Xwiki Enterprise standalone installed, but does not launch.
by Campbell, John 14 Jul '11

14 Jul '11

Hi, folks. I’m trying to do some local testing of XWiki Enterprise, because it looks like a great resource for me to manage my group’s documentation, but I’m running into some issues. I downloaded the Windows executable and installed XE locally (on the C: drive of a Windows 7 system), and everything seemed to install correctly. I have the start and stop desktop icons. I clicked the start icon and a DOS window flashed open and closed. When I tried to open XWiki in my browser at http://localhost:8080/, I received a “This webpage is not available” message. I’m not sure if I have a port issue, and I didn’t see anything in the users mailing list archives that related to this issue. Does this problem sound familiar to anyone, and if so, how can it be fixed? Thanks. _____________ John Campbell NOC Technical Writer WildBlue Communications, Inc. 720.493.6324 ◊ john.campbell(a)viasat.com <mailto:[email protected]>
