Hi Folks, i really like the nested feature. I am writting a book and tried different approaches. From my point of view i like the software Scrivener (https://www.literatureandlatte.com/), but this has the problem that the versioning and multiuser-editing is not possible. Also i used https://titanpad.com/. This has great multiuser-function but a bad content-editor and no image-usage. So i tried xwiki with the new nested feature and my citations-extension. Now i have all i need which is really great. If i could ask for an additional feature then i like a change highlightning from different users, so a collaborative writting is possible (like in titanpad). Now i have over 300 pages as book with a great layout, pictures and citations in one system and can also get a PDF and so on. Thank you ... But i thing the nested thing is real worth to get to 8.x. PS: The redicrect-flag by renaming a page causes a lot of trouble to me because i not recognize it first. Could it be deselected by default?

[xwiki-users] Fetching resources from cdn

by Andrew Kuang

Hi, I had a question regarding resource calls in XWiki. Currently, they are being made to my local environment and I would like to know if there is any simple way to modify the calls to fetch the resources from a CDN. I was able to replicate my desired functionality by extending the AbstractSkinExtensionPlugin and its API class; however, to fully implement the changes would require overriding all the classes for jsfx, jsx, jsrx, ssx, etc. Is there any simpler way to do this? To clarify, I'd like to change the url being hit by the script tag from ' https://mywebsite/resources/js/file.js' to ' https://cdnwebsite/mywebsite/resources/js/file.js'. Thank you! Best, Andrew

[xwiki-users] Creating Nested Page Hierarchies

by Personal

I am creating a knowledge base for a local municipal code which follows a typical book hierarchy. I plan on using nested pages to create a pages hierarchy for navigating and searching the code text at different levels. For example each end page would have a space path like so: Title 19.Part 2.Chapter 4.Section 100 Title 19.Part 2.Chapter 4.Section 200 etc. Currently I am using a Velocity macro to create links to each child page and at the chapter level I also start including the child pages. I then follow the links to make the child pages. This works relatively well but has a couple of disadvantages. 1) It is slow to create each page by repeatedly following the links, selecting the template and pasting the next tier of code. 2) It hardcodes the child page names which if changed (say due to a typo) must be updated by hand each time. I am wondering if there is a more efficient way that I can automate the page and link creation process. Ideally I would have a way to create the complete page hierarchy by providing the names and levels of each page with the same code in each page providing a link to each child of that page. Then I could paste the content text into each page at the end of the branch. I have done something similar to this using Jeykell but that is much simpler as it is static content based on the file structure. If I am going about this all the wrong way I am open to other suggestions. Regards, Jesse
