[xwiki-users] the panel for "create" new page disappear
by Harrison＠Gmail 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Several guys were creating pages around the same time in XE and everything was working. All of sudden, I noticed that I can't create new page anymore because the panel of creating the new page disappeared. It appeared that no one can create new page as this panel just disappeared. Can anyone help me how to solve this issue? We are using the XE 1.7-milestone-1.13758. Harrison

[xwiki-users] Strangeness with numbers...
by Kevin_C 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Why can't I do something like: #set($tRule = "") #set($idx = $tRule.indexOf(',')) $idx ## Outputs -1 $idx+1 ## Outputs -1+1 I've tried using the $number tool but it doesn't work, if I do: $number.format($idx) It outputs $number.format($idx). What am I missing? .:. Kevin -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/Strangeness-with-numbers...-tp2168613p2168613.html Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

[xwiki-users] migrating from mssql to mysql
by Sebastian Kannengiesser 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Hi guys, just a quick question? Do you think it will be difficult to migrate from a MSSQL database to a MySQL database. I have to use MSSQL for now, but might have the chance to switch from Micro$oft to Unix/Linux later and it would be very critical to do the mentioned database switch then. Any experiences or opinions around? Thanx guys. Cheers Sebastian

I'm trying to set up my registration email (the XWiki Instance is running on my localhost) but the problem i'm having is that the when a user registers they recieve the following email: Subject: Validate your account on $wikiname Body: Hello test test, This email address was used to register a new account on ${wikiname}. If you did not make the request, please ignore this message. In order to activate your account, please follow this link: $xwiki.getDocument("XWiki.AccountValidation").getExternalURL("view", "validkey=${validkey}&xwikiname=${xwikiname}") How do I stop the variable names from appearing and get the actual data to display?

[xwiki-users] Conditionally hiding content..
by Kevin_C 20 Jan '09

20 Jan '09

Using the example @: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/FAQ/Howtodisablecommentsandattachments I am able to remove all of the sections at the bottom of pages, Comments, Attachments, History and Information. Now what I would like to do is show some of these items conditionally based on the users permissions. Would I do this via the "Custom Display" option in the class editor? How would I access the properties within the class? Something like: #if($hasAdmin || $hasSpaceAdmin) showcomments = "yes" #else showcomments = "no" #end Would I use a #set directive to set the property or is there something else I need to do in order to set this value? Is this even the right place for this type of action? Thanks in advance! .:.

[xwiki-users] Tags
by Ajdin Brandic 19 Jan '09

19 Jan '09

Hi I'm playing with tags and noticed something odd. I've added tags to a few pages but when I go to "xwiki/bin/view/Main/Tags" I always get message "No documents have been tagged yet. To tag a document, edit it and enter the tags ...". I've searched all the posts but found only one person having the same problem in April 2008 but no one answered. In the end I found the problem in the page itself ##set($sql = "select distinct elements(prop.list) from BaseObject as obj, DBStringListProperty as prop where obj.className='XWiki.TagClass' and obj.id=prop.id.id and prop.id.name='tags'") Note at the end " and prop.id.name='tags' " should be " and prop.name='tags' " Example: http://patternlanguagenetwork.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Tags There are some tags added alredy but none displayed. Also is there a list of all Hibernate Object names that relate to database tables (ie. DBStringListProperty = xwikilistitems or LargeStringProperty = xwikilargestrings). I am trying to work with xwiki but its documentation is patchy and sometimes out of date so I try to find info in the database to understand xwiki structure but get stuck when I want to get some info out using HQL. I usualy spend hours looking through Volocity scripts.

[xwiki-users] XWiki Plugin for Grails
by Philipp Wassibauer 18 Jan '09

18 Jan '09

Hello, I stumbled across XWiki two days ago on my search for a good Wiki. I am amazed by the features XWiki has and I decided to use it for my Project. I would like to build a Plugin for Grails that integrates the XWiki plattform. However, I am not sure how to integrate it in the best way. I am interested in the Core features: Wiki Syntax, Version Control, Rights Management, Attachments and the Wysiwyg editor. I checked out the core package and build it (which worked without problems) but I am not sure on how to integrate it into a grails app now. I could not find a tutorial on how to use the core packages without the rest of the framework. There are some resources on how to do it with XMLRPC, but for apps running on the same server I doubt that that would be the best way of doing it. So please send me infos (eq: how to configure it, which classes to use etc), I would appreciate it...if I succeed I will post the Plugin for Grails as soon as I am done. Thanks, Philipp Wassibauer

[xwiki-users] Lossing Data Changes in Version 1.7 - Why?
by Lee Chalupa 17 Jan '09

17 Jan '09

Hello: I am relatively new to xwiki. I'm running version 1.7. Occassionally, I will make changes to a wiki page it seems to sort of flicker and all of a sudden I'm looking at a version of the page from many versions back. In other words I am losing data. I'm trying to diagnose the problem. Could it be the type of data I'm entering? It seems to happen when I'm using the wysiwyg editor? Is this happening to other users? Any ideas? Thanks Lee

Hi! Is it possible to import a Visio diagram (with links) into XWiki page? I mean the functionality like in Sharepoint: you save the diagram as a web page and then import it. Best regards, Mike
