[xwiki-users] JsTree Extension
by Danilo Amaral de Oliveira 28 Apr '14

28 Apr '14

Hello People, I am trying to customize the jsTree extension because I want to show just the tree of a specific space that arenot blog posts. I have changed the query to avoid to show the posts and it is working well. Ok. I have start to understand the code and I have changed two parts in the code to show just a space: var parsedJson = JSON.parse(data, function (k, v) and $.each(parsedJson, function (i, item) { You can check the code here: http://codeshare.io/sXGil As you can see here: http://www.image-share.com/ipng-2529-45.html I could filter the spaces, however the containers and icons of the other folder still are showing in my page... I don’t know very much of javascript and I don’t know where to attack now, do you have some tip what functions I need to modify? Thank you!

I'd like to hear what others think about this. Do simple users expect the search suggest to perform a prefix match or a standard match? In other words, when a user types in the search suggest, does he type the whole word or just a few letters (a prefix)? Prefix is more flexible from search point of view. But, sure it would be interesting to carry out a survey. Again, note that the previous behaviour was applying prefix matching only for the last "word" in the search query, not for all of the words in the query. IMHO, for Search - yes all words are essential, for suggest, most probably prefix. It is my way of searching. :) Thanks, Marius > > >> >> Let me know what yo think, >> Marius >> >> >> >>> >>> >>> Kind regards, >>> >>> Dmitry >>> _______________________________________________ >>> users mailing list >>> users(a)xwiki.org >>> http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users > > > > Kind regards, > > Dmitry Kind regards, Dmitry
