[xwiki-users] Force page breaks for Printouts and repeat table captions
by Sebastian Fix 16 Apr '12

16 Apr '12

Hi All, 2 questions regarding the printing of pages: 1. is it possible to "force" a page break for printouts of Wiki-pages to make sure, that a certain amount of information is on 1 page? 2. is it possible to repeat part of a wiki-table (caption)automatically on each page? I need to use those as a middle step before moving to xwiki completely regarding Quality-related documents.. Thanks, Sebastian -- NEU: FreePhone 3-fach-Flat mit kostenlosem Smartphone!

[xwiki-users] no empty values on 'selectedColumn' livetable
by Joris Dirks 16 Apr '12

16 Apr '12

I'm wondering if I ran into a bug or I just don't understand the methods very well for Livetable macro. When I order with 'selectedColumn', all pages without a value for that property disappear from the results. See the example below, but I've tried various types of properties. {{velocity}} #set($columns = ["doc.name", "_Deadline"]) #set($options = { "className":"App.DemoClass", "selectedColumn": "_Deadline" }) #livetable("bydeadline" $columns $columnsProperties $options) {{/velocity}} Thanks for your ideas!

[xwiki-users] 4.0 RC1 Feedback: Hidden Documents
by Richard Hierlmeier 13 Apr '12

13 Apr '12

I tested the new hidden documents feature in xwiki 4.0RC1. I do not see any impact of the "Hidden document" flag. I can see hidden documents as unregistered user and also as user with user preferences "Display hidden documents" set to "No". Changes on the hidden document are visible in the activity stream for such users. Is it working?

[xwiki-users] Upgrade wiki farm from 3.1->3.5 Import default xar (edited) fails
by Tim Jones 13 Apr '12

13 Apr '12

Hi, I have just upgraded our XWiki 3.1 to the current 3.5 version. When trying to import into the main wiki the default pages XAR (xwiki-enterprise-ui-all-3.5.xar - from which I had removed the appropriate pages and updated the package.xml) from the Administration: Import page, I chose the file and hit upload and nothing happens. I have tried a number of times and the result is the same. Trying to find out what is wrong I looked at the tomcat logs and My catalina.out file is full of hundreds of errors and warnings similar to the following: Has anyone any idea what is going on or what I might try next?? ================================================================================================================================== … 2012-04-12 14:44:25,836 [http://<my server name>/bin/import/XWiki/XWikiPreferences?editor=globaladmin&section=Import] WARN c.x.x.w.XWikiMessageTool - The document [MindMap.Translations] is listed as an internationalization document bundle but it does not exist. … 2012-04-12 14:44:26,462 [Lucene Index Rebuilder] WARN c.x.x.w.XWikiMessageTool - The document [MindMap.Translations] is listed as an internationalization document bundle but it does not exist. … [http://<my server name>/favicon.ico] WARN c.x.x.w.XWikiMessageTool - The document [MindMap.Translations] is listed as an internationalization document bundle but it does not exist. … 2012-04-12 14:44:30,794 [New I/O client worker #229-1] WARN h.c.p.n.NettyAsyncHttpProvider - Unexpected error on close java.lang.IllegalStateException: An Executor cannot be shut down from the thread acquired from itself.

[xwiki-users] Tagging a page in structured mode
by Richard Rafalski 12 Apr '12

12 Apr '12

Hallo, i followed this instruction http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Tag+Application to define some tags for tagging in structured mode. Because of the statment "Bundled With XWiki Enterprise, XWiki Enterprise Manager, XWiki Watch" i did not download and install the XAR file. Evrything seemed to went well. But if i klicked on the plus sign near the label 'tags' on a page no tags were suggested. I am expected to get a list of the predefined tags. Also no tags were showed in the document information box in the edit mode of a page. XWiki version is 3.5. Any ideas what went wrong? Or is maybe the tagging in structured mode in 3.5 broken? Maybe somone can help. Thanks in advance. Richard

I shall make my problem clearer. Not every vm file is in the /skins/colibri folder. When my wiki was set up by XWiki, they created a new skin and I can't find the vm files for that. However, this is just an example. Trust me it is useful to see (if not edit) the vm files, but I can't see how to find where exactly they lie. Also, is it true that other features, e.g. search, use vm files? What method should I use to locate these such files? I agree that leaving the vm files in place is a good idea for upgrades but it's useful to view them sometimes. Finally, while investigating this, I noticed that I can view vm files while not logged into the wiki. This exposes source code to the public viewers (should they know where to look). How can I stop this? Thanks again, Martin

[xwiki-users] XWiki feedback
by Trevor Russ 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

We chose XWiki back in 2009 as our wiki solution and we had successfully set up a complete farm of 4 wikis. I have been following the progress of XWiki since then, but unfortunately it was never utilized by our team, mostly because the users did not want to invest the time in learning a new WYSIWYG editor. In the end I was the only one who used it so the time has finally come to shut it down and look at an alternative solution -- perhaps a simple document manager. I saw a lot of potential in XWiki for our purposes, but didn't quite have the time to sell it to the others. Before I remove myself from the mailing list, I just wanted to put forward one comment as feedback: don't discount the learning curve that confronts users new to the wiki. Many of them are proficient in their ways of editing documents (which usually means MS Word) and don't have the time to invest learning new document formatting tools. If you want to capture a larger share of the market, look at ways of integrating with users' favourite editors; I think that would go a long way. You have a very impressive product, and I've been amazed at the level of commitment and professionalism that has gone into this wiki. Thanks for everybody's efforts and best of luck going forward. Trevor

[xwiki-users] vm files in Cloud
by Martin Evans 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

Hi, I have a Cloud distribution, which means I don't have access to the .vm files. When I want to make a change to the behaviour of my wiki, this causes big problems. Sometimes I can over-ride the vm file by adding in a new TextArea field, but it's normally impossible to know where to put it. Then there is the problem of default behaviour. If I insert a blank TextArea to over-ride vm behaviour, I get nothing. I need to access the vm file to see what's currently written there before making a change. But the vm files do not appear in the search. Does anyone have any experience of this frustrating lack of functionality and ease of use? Martin
