[xwiki-users] Diagram Application
by Hamster 28 Oct '14

28 Oct '14

I am testing XWiki 5.0.2 (standalone ZIP version) to take a look at some extensions which don't work with our current XWiki 4.0. One of these extensions is the Diagram Appication <http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Diagram+Application> I have a couple of questions: 1) In the Diagram Applications, there are nice graphs (computers, network, etc). I can see those graphics when I am in the edit mode, but as soon as I "Save & View", those graphics are not displayed anymore! How can I get these graphics to show? 2) I would like to include a diagram in another page, but if I use the "Include" macro, I only get the "XML-text" (and not the actual diagram). How can I "include" a diagram into a page? Thanks in advance! -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Diagram-Application-tp7585510.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] Number field - separate decimal places with comma instead point
by spoolox 27 Sep '14

27 Sep '14

I hope that I don't have overseen a simple switch in the Administration interface - I want to format the number field for German users. Since we use a comma to separate the places after the decimal point, I would like to know if that is somehow possible to achieve for a float/double datatype field? (e.g. 1200,99 instead of 1200.99) Thanks a lot. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Number-field-separate-decimal-places-with… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] XWiki User/Dev meet up in France? Paris?
by vincent＠massol.net 16 Sep '14

16 Sep '14

Hi XWiki users, I’m wondering if we’d be enough to start organizing an XWiki users/dev meetup in France. Could you let me know in reply if you’d be interested in joining if I was to organize such a meetup? If we’re enough we could imagine organizing it in September or October for example. XWiki SAS has an office located in Paris (http://www.xwiki.com/lang/en/Company/Contact) and they could host us. Note for those who’d be coming from afar, I’m sure that it would be possible to have you sleep at some XWiki SAS employee’s place in Paris or even in the office (there’s a shower and kitchen). Interesting or not? If you’re interested what would you be interested in doing/seeing during this time? We could imagine a 3-4 hours meetup or even a 1 day meetup. We could also imagine having a hackathon during the time, in this case probably 2 days would be nicer. WDYT? Thanks -Vincent

[xwiki-users] Wiki page seems to have two parents?
by Hamster 20 Aug '14

20 Aug '14

To all, Something strange is going on with one page in our Wiki. The page has been created by importing a Word document (.docx), but after the import, the page seems to have two parents. The page shows up in the "WebHome" of the space, but also under the "parent page" where the document was created in the first place. Furthermore, when editing the page and looking at the "parent" property, it seems to be empty (or refering to itself). Has anyone encountered this before? Also, when I delete the page it will be "moved" to the recycle bin, but permanently deleting the page from the recycle bin creates a new blank page with the same name... -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Wiki-page-seems-to-have-two-parents-tp759… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] New Wiki Creation Issues / No Distribution Wizard
by Esteban Amas 06 Aug '14

06 Aug '14

Hello everyone, Upon trying to create a new wiki we don’t get a Distribution Wizard and instead get the DocumentDoesNotExist page. Setup Summary: Tomcat/MySQL & XWikiv6.0.1 We deployed a custom configured version of the WAR file to our Servlet Container (Tomcat) and upgraded the UI on the main wiki using the Extension Manager (carefully, we made sure rights we wanted to keep didn’t get overwritten). We want to expand our current wiki and split up into many “sub-wikis” and start with creating the new wikis. We use the WikiManager/CreateWiki/ dialog as admin-users with full rights. THE MAIN ISSUE: Upon hitting “create” we expect to see the Distribution Wizard - but instead we see the DocumentDoesNotExist page and the URL reads /wiki/secondwiki/view/Main. Our jobs folder does in fact have status.xml which I have heard you could remove (then restart tomcat) and get the DW that way but it isn’t working (same result). My logs (catalina.out) show the following: -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] WARN o.h.u.DTDEntityResolver - recognized obsolete hibernate namespace http://hibernate.sourceforge.net/. Use namespace http://www.hibernate.org/dtd/ instead. Refer to Hibernate 3.6 Migration Guide! -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] WARN o.h.i.UUIDHexGenerator - Using org.hibernate.id.UUIDHexGenerator which does not generate IETF RFC 4122 compliant UUID values; consider using org.hibernate.id.UUIDGenerator instead NOTE: We actually have the hibernate namespace as they have suggested in the warning (in hibernate.cfg.xml). Still it gives us that warning. -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] INFO .HibernateDataMigrationManager - Storage schema updates and data migrations are enabled -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] INFO .HibernateDataMigrationManager - No data migration to apply for wiki [xwiki] currently in version [54300] -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] INFO .HibernateDataMigrationManager - Checking Hibernate mapping and updating schema if needed for wiki [xwiki] -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.searchDocuments] in /templates/admin.vm@75,17 -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.searchDocuments] in /templates/admin.vm@75,17 -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.searchDocuments] in /templates/admin.vm@75,17 -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] WARN o.x.v.i.DefaultVelocityEngine - Deprecated usage of method [com.xpn.xwiki.api.XWiki.searchDocuments] in /templates/admin.vm@75,17 -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] INFO .HibernateDataMigrationManager - Checking Hibernate mapping and updating schema if needed for wiki [secondwiki] -----------/bin/admin/XWiki/XWikiPreferences/] INFO .HibernateDataMigrationManager - Checking Hibernate mapping and updating schema if needed for wiki [testing] Checked MySQL: the database is being properly created and is filled with the expected tables (compared with database ‘xwiki' - the main wiki). If you read all of that - thank you for your time. Any help or ideas you can provide would be GREATLY appreciated. Best, eamas

[xwiki-users] Batch Import
by Danilo Oliveira 03 Aug '14

03 Aug '14

Hello All, I am trying to use the batchimport application to import some data in my XWiki 6.1. I created a class with appwithinminutes, and the import for the class fields and title is working perfectly. However when I try to map some data to doc.tags, not happens... And the extension does not return any errors as well. is there a way to turn a detailed log? or anyone could make this kind of import in other versions of XWiki below the 6.1? Thanks.

[xwiki-users] [UX] Wiki - Space - Page concepts pitch
by Ecaterina Moraru (Valica) 01 Aug '14

01 Aug '14

Hi, We did some usability testing sessions and found out that one of the biggest problems users are facing is that they don't understand the Home - Wiki - Space - Page concepts. Because of this confusion: - they are creating a wiki instead of a space or a page, - they don't know where they are located when looking at a page (in the main wiki or in a subwiki), - they don't know how to navigate to the pages they've created, - very confused that we have a Main space in every wiki, - they are having a hard time making a difference between a space and an application, - hard to understand everything is a page, - etc. We could do many things in order to improve our navigation, but one thing I want us to focus in this mail thread is the explanation of Wiki - Space - Page concepts on the Main.WebHome. Currently the content of the Welcome Block is: = Welcome to your wiki = > > It's an easy-to-edit website that will help you work better together. This > Wiki is made of //pages// sorted by //spaces//. You're currently in the > **Main** space, looking at its home page (**WebHome**). > > Learn how to use XWiki with the [[Getting Started Guide]] > You can then use the [[Sandbox space]] to try out your wiki's features. > I would like to replace this message with an introductory text that explain the concepts (there were also some ideas that maybe we need some images to represent the hierarchy, etc.) and I need your opinion on this subject. So, how would you pitch the Wiki - Space - Page concepts to newcomers? Thanks, Caty
