[xwiki-users] FavIcon
by Yannick Dewilde 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Hi, I am trying to include a FavIcon in my wiki and I've found this information, but it doesn't help me... Regards Yannick Sylvain Desbureaux wrote: >* Hi,*>* I don't manage to put a favicon for xwiki. Any clues ?*>* * Well, a favicon is usually placed in the root of the URL, like www.myserver.com/favicon.ico Doing that in a java webapp container usually involves adding that file not to the xwiki webapp, but to the ROOT webapp. In tomcat, there is a ROOT directory inside webapps. Another solution is to put something like this in webapps/xwiki/skins/albatross/htmlheader.vm: <link rel="icon" href="$xwiki.getSkinFile("favicon.png")" type="image/png"/> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="$xwiki.getSkinFile("favicon.png")" type="image/png"/> and put a favicon.png (you can change the name, if you want) in webapps/xwiki/skins/albatross If you're not using the albatross skin, change the path accordingly.

[xwiki-users] Awaiting patch for the issue with exporting images to PDF
by Marcin Zajączkowski 29 Nov '13

29 Nov '13

Hi. A few months ago I hit the problem with exporting images to PDF with the "XWiki MultipagePdfExport Application - Space Export" plugin with configured LDAP/AD/SSO - https://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-9161 After some time there was a fix suggested in that issue (a change of one line) which works and looks reasonably. I don't know who is responsible for the "Old Core - PDF export" component and who has proper knowledge and permissions to review proposed change and push it into the repository, so I asked here to gain attentions to make it fixed upstream. Thanks Marcin

[xwiki-users] SOLR Search Suggest doesn't open properly
by Alanca 28 Nov '13

<http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7588155/SOLR_Search_Suggest_Failure…> Instead of a full Search Suggest window, only the upper border is displayed. I have this issue now on my XWiki 5.2.1, whereas SearchSuggest works fine on my 5.1 install, which I've used for testing purposes. I happened to notice that the same thing happens in the search field on the XWiki extensions site (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/) In fact, the attached pic is from that site. I've tried all the configuration tricks I could think of, but to no effect. I'm using IE10 & IE11, Windows 7. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/SOLR-Search-Suggest-doesn-t-open-properly… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] WYSIWYG Editor missing scollbars
by Christian Fiddick 28 Nov '13

28 Nov '13

Hi all, I'm on IE 8 and the WYSIWYG Editor won't allow me to scroll vertically or show the scrollbar. I have to use the arrow key to move through the lines to 'scroll'. The source editor scrolls fine though. I realize that this is a hard question for you to answer due to lack of information, but does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? I don't appear to be getting any JS errors. Thanks in advance, Christian

[xwiki-users] [myxwiki] new wiki request
by Patrick Masson 28 Nov '13

28 Nov '13

XWiki Crew, The Open Source Initiative (www.opensource.org) would like to migrate from our current wiki, Dokuwiki, to XWiki. The goal of the effort is to increase participation and collaboration among the broader open source community through a platform that enables distributed groups to readily find and contribute to the efforts of the OSI. The wiki will be used (edited) by internal OSI staff, the Board of Directors and OSI members (individuals, partners on various projects, representatives from affiliate organizations and our corporate sponsors). While we hope to see increasing use, currently the realistic number of accounts would be less than 50 and actual authors/editors would be around 20. Per you instructions, I (username: Patrick Masson) have registered at wiki.org. We would request our server name to be, 'osi.mywiki.org' Thank you, Patrick -- || | | |||| || || | |||| ||| | ||| Patrick Masson General Manager, Director & Secretary to the Board Open Source Initiative 855 El Camino Real, Ste 13A, #270 Palo Alto, CA 94301 United States Sk: massonpj Ph: (970) 4MASSON Em: massson(a)opensource.org <mailto:[email protected]> Ws: www.opensource.org <http://www.opensource.org>

[xwiki-users] Right issue with REST URL on local subwiki users
by Jaume Giribert Peraire 27 Nov '13

27 Nov '13

Hi, I'm currently getting right issues with my xwiki 5.1 installation. I have several workspaces with both local and global users: - Global users are authenticated by LDAP (defined in main wiki) and have access to some workspaces and the main wiki. - Local users are also authenticated by LDAP (defined in local workspace) and cannot access any wiki other than the one they are defined. The problem is that global users can navigate throught all wikis without problems but local users are getting disconnected every 2 minutes. Looking at catalina.out I have found these errors when clicking at any random document: *org.restlet.engine.log.LogFilter afterHandle443 GET /xwiki/rest/wikis/workspace1/xxxxxx/xxxx/webhome - 401 424 0 10 * It looks like my local users doesn't have right permission to access the "/xwiki/rests/wikis/workspaceX" URL (maybe because they doesn't exists in main wiki) and ends getting the 401 http error that makes the xwiki login page to appear. Looking for similar issues, I have found this Jira ticket with a similar problem but it should be already been fixed for xwiki 4.1.2: http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-7946 Anyone facing this issue? Should I migrate all my local users to global users? Thanks for your help! Regards, Jaume

[xwiki-users] Style for span in XWiki 2.x syntax
by Valdis Vītoliņš 27 Nov '13

27 Nov '13

Is it possible in XWiki 2.x syntax to set span style? E.g.: Normal (%style="color: red;"%) red normal makes following normal also red. Only solution I could get working was embedded html code, e.g.: normal {{html clean="false"}}<span style="color: red;">{{/html}}red{{html clean="false"}}</span>{{/html}} normal Are there any better approaches? Thanks! Valdis

[xwiki-users] Multiple Wikis Best Practices
by Ghanshyam Patel 27 Nov '13

27 Nov '13

I am on XWiki 5.2. I would like to create multiple wikis so I'm trying to figure out the best way to structure them and manage them. I am going to leave Home as basic wiki that will be a starting point for all users and it will allow them to navigate to the other wikis. I want to create a wiki per department at work. I would be the main person managing them all. I want to customize the wiki template but I don't see anywhere to do that. I want to make sure that all new wikis will have the same branding, some core macros, and extensions.. I am also confused about how to manage extensions across the different wikis? Do I need to go into each one and install the same extensions or is there a central place to do that? We've been using the wiki in a single department so far but now that we are going to create multiple wikis I'd like to move the existing content to a new wiki (so that Home is very pure and used only for navigating to other wikis). I figured I could export the current content and import to the new wiki but when I did this the applications were not installed so there's missing macros and APIs.
