Hi, We use the standard Colibri Skin with usually a Left and Side pane for panels. Most of our panels are for navigation only. (80%) So the question is: Can I make the default behavior of a panel be that it is collapsed, I want that after a click (and new content is loaded) that the panel is automatically collapsing again (Like a drop down menu) You click on the collapsed panel It opens and shows the navigation links The user selects one. The webpage is loaded and if the panel is also on that page it is automatically collapsed again I do not want cookies (or something else) that remembers the state and keeps the panel open. So a simple piece of code that I can add to the panel to get the behavior? A better version would be to link it to the default user attribute: User type So if user-type is simple automatically collapse if user type is advanced; keep the panels open for faster navigation. A even better would be to link it to the panel attribute Type and category something like: If Panel-type is View and Panel-category is navigation. Then automatically collapse without state memory) Our goal is to dramatically reduce screen clutter. For the roadmap of XWiki i would ask if it is possible to add something about collapsing behavior in either the panel definition or in the preferences of Site and/or space to define the desired behavior of panels?

[xwiki-users] Assign user list property

by Kelly Steinke

I have a class called TaskManager with a property called Reporter that is of a "List of Users" type. What I am trying to do is assign the current user to the Reporter property when a new document is created so that the user does not have to select himself from the user list control, but I would like this field to also remain as read-only so the user cannot change it to someone else. Using the following code in the TaskManagerSheet, the property gets populated on new, however when it is saved it disappears (not saved into the property). I have narrowed it down to the problem being the 'view' parameter in the $doc.display() function which makes it readonly, however because of this it is not being saved. Is there a way to set a value on new but retain a read-only status Here is the code that I am using: #set ($discard = $doc.use('TaskManager.TaskManagerClass')) #if($doc.isNew()) $doc.set('reporter',$context.user) #end : $doc.display('reporter', view)

[xwiki-users] Wiki application templates error

by Jaume Giribert Peraire

Hi, I'm working with a fresh install of xwiki 5.3 (centos6 + openjdk 1.6 + tomcat6 + mysql). I have create a new subwiki (as a template) but whenever I try to create a new subwiki using this template, i only get a blank wiki, just the standard deploy. I have followed these instructions with no luck: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Wiki+Application Just after the subwiki creation (from a template) I get a progress bar indicating that the system is provisioning the wiki. When I click on "Finalize", I'm automatically redirected to the "Distribution Wizard" page telling me that I have to install "XWiki Enterprise UI - Wiki". If I skip the wizard, the wiki is shown as it didn't have any UI. Looking at catalina.out I don't see anything strange. I have also found out that the first created wiki template doesn't show in the "Wiki Template" admin panel. If I create a new template, this new one is shown in "xwiki index" and "xwiki template". If I try to create a new subwiki using this second template the error persist. Anyone with this issue? Regards, Jaume

[xwiki-users] UI Control for Upload, Attach, Select and Display a photo

by Gerritjan Koekkoek

Hi, I have a class with a text field for holding a reference to a photo. I would like to modify the sheet to add - modify objects of this class. After the modification the sheet should display - a default image if the object attribute 'photo' is empty (like the avatar image for a xwiki user) - a Button to modify the attribute - When the user clicks on a pop-up like the image selector in the user avatar. My issue is that the class was developed in a very early version of XWiki. On XWiki.org I found: Attachment Selector Macro This macro seems pretty close to what I want. But the sheet is still in wiki version 1. How can I use the macro in a sheet that is linked to the class? Gerritjan

[xwiki-users] jQuery plugin - Conflict with prototype.js

by Ruben M.

Hello XWiki team & users, First of all thanks a lot for your great work. I’ve set up XWiki as an intranet website (version 5.2.1). Currenty I’m trying to customize it with some javascript to make life easier for the users. I experimented a bit with jQuery (as I have a bit of experience with it) and have successfully integrated it into a test page via the jQuery Helpers Extension (http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/jQuery+Helpers) Now I want to include a jQuery Plugin which extends the jQuery functions. I’d like to try out the live tiles in Windows 8 style from Drew Greenwell (http://www.drewgreenwell.com/projects/metrojs). It’s no big deal to get the liveTiles working - On a local webserver without Xwiki. Here’s the problem: The functions from metrojs seem to collide with prototype.js. I experimented a bit with jQuerynoConflict(); , I tried to rename the functions inside metroJS.js, but nothing worked so far. Firebug says ‘$ele.attr is not a function’ inside the metrojs-Code in the console, which I believe is a problem with prototype.js. (See for the XWiki test page code at the end of the mail – I won’t post the whole MetroJS-Code here, it’s a little big). My questions are: a) Is there a possibility to deactivate / rename / “defuse” prototype.js, or to listen for another shortcut than $ on this page (something like prototypeNoConflict();) ? b) Has anyone of you any experience with jQuery plugins (or even better, Metrojs!) in XWiki and maybe a hint? c) Is there a possibility of producing some kind of “liveTiles” with prototype.js (which I’m not very experienced with) I know it’s more of a javascript-related question, so thanks a lot for reading this anyway. Regards Ruben ################# Here’s the current code of my test page (ADMIN is the test space): {{velocity}} $xwiki.jsx.use("jQuery.jQuery", {'defer': false}) $xwiki.jsx.use("ADMIN.MetroJS") $xwiki.ssx.use("ADMIN.MetroCSS") {{/velocity}} {{html}} Carousel Mode: Simple <div class="red"> <div id="tile1" data-mode="carousel" data-start-now="true" class="live-tile" data-direction="horizontal" data-delay="3000"> <div> <http://www.drewgreenwell.com/images/sample/1tw.gif> </div> <div> <http://www.drewgreenwell.com/images/sample/2tw.gif> </div> <div class="accent emerald"><p class="metroExtraLarge">2 and a half</p></div> <div> <http://www.drewgreenwell.com/images/sample/3tw.gif> </div> <div> <http://www.drewgreenwell.com/images/sample/4tw.gif> </div> </div> </div> {{/html}} -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/jQuery-plugin-Conflict-with-prototype-js-… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] XWiki space partially deleted

by Peter John Acklam

I wanted a metawiki space, so as the "Admin" user, I created the "XWiki" space. Realizing that we already had a "Wiki" space, I deleted the "XWiki" space. The deletion to surprisinly long time, so I got suspicious and hit "Cancel". I didn't think much of it until a few days later, when I was no longer able to log in as "Admin". That was when I remembered that the "XWiki" space is special. I had deleted a lot more than just a newly created empty space. Now I am no longer allowed to log in as "Admin" or "superadmin". Both accounts worked before, but now both give me the error message "Invalid credentials". Apparently, all users can log in with their ordinary user account, but with no admin account I can no longer re-import the XWiki pages from the XAR file. The "superadmin" account was enabled when I upgraded to the current XWiki 5.2. It was tested and working, but not any longer. How on earth to I get around this? As as side note, I am very surprised that 1) I was able to create the "XWiki" space, just as any other space, and 2) that I was able to delete the "XWiki" space with no notification about this space being vital to XWiki. Any help or pointers are highly appreciated. Kind regards, Peter John Acklam

With your explanation I see that this is not possible, so I will have to rethink my strategy. Perhaps by changing permissions on the main wiki spaces so that the users of my subwiki do not see anything on the main wiki but give them the ability to request to join the subwiki. I tried this originally but was running into to many problems, as the request functionality was failing due to them not being able to send notifications with limited permissions.

Perhaps by changing permissions on the main wiki spaces so that the users of my subwiki do not see anything on the main wiki but give them the ability to request to join the subwiki.

[xwiki-users] [ANN] Welcome our new committer Clemens Robbenhaar

by Thomas Mortagne

Hi xwikiers, The committers discussed and voted to include Clemens Robbenhaar in the team which he agreed so a warm welcome to him ! He has been very active since he started working on XWiki, he already spend a lot of time answering questions on the mailing list and on IRC (more than me I think). On the technical aspect everything I saw from him was good and very clean and he is clearly no afraid to look at advanced stuff (he spent a long time last month trying to help Kaisen and Denis on migration stuff which I'm sure was not that critically related to his own work). Note that he is working on XWiki for EsPresto AG (don't forget to add it to http://main.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Support). I'm sure he will be great addition to the team and it's always a nice bonus to see non XWiki SAS members so active ;) Welcome ! -- Thomas Mortagne
