Hi!
Could anyone point to any additonal resources for LDAP Authentication. The
XWiki doc
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Authentication does
not deal in complete detail on all the possible attributes that can be
configured in xwiki.cfg. I have configured LDAP authentication for XWik
but have Some questions that I could not find answers to from the docs.
1) How can the LDAP configuration be debugged for any issues. I
followed the log4j settings from
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Logging . There is no
LDAP related logging in the xwiki log. The xwiki log shows that the
user was Authenticatied with Xwiki.FormAuthenticator e.g this is the
message in the log " [P1-19] INFO xwiki.MyFormAuthenticator - User
xwiki:XWiki.testuser5 has been logged-in" (not sure if this would
internally call the LDAP class). However, since only the ldap users are
being authenticated, I think the .XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl is being used.
I found on the web that
com.xpn.xwiki.user.impl.LDAP=debug log seeting could be used for setting
the LDAP loglevel to debug. However, this setting still does not log
anything LDAP. Is this a valid setting for XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl?
How can I conclusively say the authentication is done through LDAP?
2)Is it possible to replicate the groups in LDAP to groups in XWIKI and
replicate the corresponding groupmemberships for a user during login so
that the authorization is done through XWiki based on the user's group
association in LDAP?
Thanks.
Sharan.

Dear All
I want to have a 4px border between the left hand column and the rest of the
wiki. I have added it to screenlayout.css to .layoutsubsection {border-left:
4px solid black;} (This may not be the right place of course, but it seemed
to work.....)
In FF and opera this is fine. HOwever in IE7 I get some odd behaviour. Parts
of the line disappear as you scroll down the page. You can see a screenshot
of this at http://www.ee-web.co.uk/caastIE7.jpg
What is really odd is that I think it is something to do with the html/css
that i have added to this page since on other long pages the line is always
continious as i want it.
I haven't posted the code because it would make the email too long. But I
would be really grateful if someone could just look at the code and tell me
if it looks ok because I can't see what's wrong. Its my first time skinning
a wiki. I would prefer to use html than macros.
thanks

Hi
I have been using the wiki editor to add some html (all div id="..", and div
class="...") to create the look for the home page.
This was all progressing nicely and I was getting very close to the end - or
so I thought!
I then switched to wysiwyg editor where I found that the look appears
unpredictable. On swithcing back to wiki editor all my lovely code has
disappeared to be replaced with in-line styles. When I tested the page the
layout had fallen apart.
What am I doing wrong?
Should I only be using the wiki editor, and not attempting to use the
wysiwyg for this type of work?
Thanks all
Edward

A few days ago, I was complaining on twitter about the usability of
the blog interface in XWiki and Vincent suggested that I send my
observations to this list, so here goes...
I've been using the XWiki blog for a few months (we have an
installation of 1.4-MILESTONE-2.9478, but my notes apply to the 1.5
version I just downloaded and tried) and a few annoyances have bubbled
up
XWiki blog UI notes
- When creating a blog entry, there's some help text "page name" in
the text
input. That should be automatically cleared when I click into the
text input
field so I don't have to select and delete it myself. The same
with the
boilerplate helper text in the blog article entry page.
- When you have exactly ten articles, you get a "next" link that takes
you to
to a page with no entries in it.
- When you have more than ten articles, the "next" button takes you
backwards in time. That's pretty confusing. I would expect the
pager link
to say something like "earlier entries" and "later entries." When
you have
quite a few blog entries and you are a few pages in, this can be
very confusing.
- I often want to see the full index of blog entries so I can easily
go to
earlier entries. Only having the paged view of blog entries is very
difficult
to navigate through when there are lots of blog entries.
- When I'm reading the blog entries, I would like to expand the full
contents
inline instead of having to click forward to the single blog entry
view. When
I'm reading a lot of blog entries at once, or scanning them, or
looking for a
particular blog entry in a long list, I want to be able to read
them within
the same page context without being yanked out of the blog entry
list UI
context.
- I would like an out-of-the-box way to segregate blogs other than
just by
category. I'd like some blog customization features built into the
standard
wiki UI.
- It's very difficult to find the correct RSS URL to subscribe to the
blog
syndication. It's nearly impossible to figure out how to get the
correct RSS
URL to subscribe to blog entries of a particular category (I
figured it out,
but it was a total guess on my part by adding the magic url
parameter). I
really expect an RSS link on the blog pages.
- I still haven't figured out how to make the max number of articles
in the RSS
feed larger than the default. I was trying to work around the
limitations of
the standard blog UI and use an RSS reader to get an index of all
of the
entries, but I couldn't figure out how to get the RSS feed to spit
all of
them out, since I have more than the max entries.
Anyway, those are my observations. I hope they help.
Cheers,
--Orion

Hi all,
I customized my user profile, added a property ('leftPanels') to be able to
define a list of panels specific to my user only. This worked nicely as
expected.
I wanted to do the same to define a personal layout, so I added boolean
properties "showRightPanels" and "showLeftPanels" in my profile, but this
has no effect on the layout. I also tried to add these layouts properties to
my skin page, with no effect either.
Am I doing something wrong, or is it "normally not possible" ?
Thanks & Regards,
Jeremie
Hi all,
i made my own tag edit, which is based on ajax. Everything works
perfect, but every change of tag will increment document version.
(Like 1.1 to 2.1 and so on.)
So how could I say to xwiki, that current edit is minor change not main?
I thought about changing version by setting version as string.
Something like this
doc.setVersion("1.2");
but i am not quite sure if it is the proper way how to make this.
Thanks.
Dear All
Skinning is making good progress (thanks for advice!)
I have begun to make a new panel for the main navigation which is to be
fixed on all pages.
I need some advice on the structure please.
I understand what a space is, but not sure what I would use it for. I have
to create a front page that has boxes that can be edited - so it has to have
a different look to the rest of the pages. Should I create a new space for
the other pages (or are they sections - calender, consortium partners,
reports, forum etc...) you can see at
http://www.4eyesdesign.co.uk/CAASTwiki02/ if it helps.
Would that mean that I could then create the different look that I need?
Or is using spaces the wrong way - perhaps I need a new class??? (Have done
faq tutorial, and have some experience of oop)
Would appreciate any pointers
thanks
Edward
My first posting:
I am unable to start my xwiki, (beta 4).
I saw some discussions regarting this problem, but didn't quite
see the solution.
any help, plus help on exporting data without xwiki service
running in case it does come back to life would be appreciated.

Recently I've been working on a user's manual for a web application. When my
work is done I would like to export it to a HTML form. Therefore I have a
couple of questions:
1) Is it possible to create an account with a different skin than the one
defined for any other users?
2) Is it possible to define new css styles after exporting several pages to
html format without editing all the exported html files?
3) If points 1 and 2 are somehow negative, is there an easy way to export
some pages to html format without all these buttons like "print", "edit"
etc. that one can see on the albatros skin?
Hope someone will be able to help me out and that my english wasn't all bad
;-)

Hi
We recently changed our configuration so that mySQL was used to house
our data. Prior to this change treeview was showing all spaces and pages
in alphabetical order. Now, the pages are still shown in alphabetical
order, but the spaces are not. In fact their order seems to change! I
believe I have the most up to date treeview code, though I am now
beginning to think that the previous sorting was co-incidental. Is there
code for a sorted treeview? Or is it a case of configuring something now
we are using mySQL. I confess this is not an area of my expertise! We
are using the latest version of XWiki, downloaded last week.
Further to this, we also used to have the simple foreach($subdoc...code
on each landing page per space so that all pages within that space were
listed at the top. Again, this used to be in alphabetical order. It no
longer is after this migration. I have managed to get around that by
using a query (as per documentation), and this has put things back to
how they were.
Regards
Michael

Hi ,all.
I have added SendPageByEmail Application, but when I sent a mail it
told me "The page has not been sent. There might be an error in the email
addresses you entered".
In the page
,(http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/SendPageByEmailApplicati
on) it said that
In order to work properly, it requires the following conditions to be met :
* The MailSender
<http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Plugins/MailSenderPlugin> plugin must
be up & running on your wiki instance
* You must have a SMTP server properly configured
* The panel has to be saved by a user with programming rights.
I have set up an Outgoing SMTP Server, and I think SMTP server work well. So
the problem maybe MailSender plugin. How to install the MailSender plugin? I
think I don't need to install it, since I use XWiki Enterprise 1.5 which has
contained this plugin.

I have used the panels to place the search box down under a box of links -
that are in the left hand column. However, I really want to get the search
box up in the right of the header.
How would I do that please

As I know, the attachment form exists only in view mode. If I want to upload
a file (e.g. xxx.png) to an object, I must create the object in inline mode,
then attach a file in view mode. Why don't we just keep an attatchment form
in inline mode?
Dear All
I have begun to alter the Albatross skin - thanks for the advice so far.
I now need to move the positions of several elements including the login box
and menus from the right to the left.
You can see what I mean at www.ee-web.co.uk/caast/caast.jpg
Where do I look and how do I do this please?

Ok, so here's the trouble:
I've created a two webpages in my wiki for all users (including the
unregistered: <adres>/WebRss?xpage=rdf. I've also edited rights
<adres>/WebRss?editor=rightsq making the page possible to view for everyone.
When I try to view the RSS page two informations are displayed on my screen:
1) Parse error - XML.
2) Topic XWiki.WebRssCode does not exist
Can anyone help me out what am I doing wrong and how to solve the problem
for the proper work of the RSS?

Hello,
I was viewing this page
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/velocityHqlExamples to
check some info about the data model. It was not there so I checked on the
hbm file. Then, I thought about adding at least the column names to the data
dictionary of that page, but after logging in I can't visualize the page
anymore.
I guess there is some configuration issue there.
Using the opportunity, what does the XWikiDocument.date column stands for? I
mean, what's the difference between "date" and "updateDate"? And what is
considered to be "content", because there is a "contentUpdateDate" too...
Thanks,
