The XWiki development team team is pleased to announce the
availability of the 1.1 Milestone 3 release of XWiki Enterprise
Go grab it on http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Download
Version 1.1 Milestone 3 is mostly a bug fix release. There's also
been a big internal change in that XWiki has been reorganized to
separate the Platform from the Products developed on top of it and a
modular automated build system using Maven2 has been setup. This was
done to support the multiple products that will be released in the
near future: XWiki Enterprise (the current Wiki you've come to know
and love), XWiki Enterprise Manager (Multi Wiki management tool),
XWiki Watch (social feed reader) and more.
Main changes:
* Lots of bugs fixed
* XWIKI-798 - XWiki does not work on Java 1.6
* XWIKI-1411 - Allow date format in footer to be customized (for
Albatross and Finch skins)
* XWIKI-1453 - Allow specifying the list of toolbars to display
in the WYSIWYG editor
* XWIKI-1355 - The page displayed by UnknownAction should be
configurable
* XWIKI-1410 - Configurable list of initial groups
* XWIKI-1372 - Make XWiki platform GWT-ready
+ several other changes.

Hello,
I recently inherited a local xwiki site (for internal use), and have no idea of the admin password. Is there any way to recover/reset this?
I have a regular user account&password that works. Is there any way to upgrade the user account to an admin account?
Alternatively, if I have to reinstall xwiki, is there any way I can save and reload the information? Would mysqldump be useful?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Sincerely,
John G.

Yes, it's hot! I don't care if it's a *dry* heat or not!
Hi Peter,
There's a better solution. We now have an #includeInContext macro
that would work exactly as you wanted:

Hope it helps,

Can the XWiki syntax list just be removed? I just need a clean edit window to continue working...and be able to point others to XWiki without saying that it does not work well...

Hi, Vincent,
This is still an open issue.
The recent unknown changes on XWiki farm made editing pages difficult, since the edit window is covered by XWiki syntax list.
Moving just the skin to albatross does not solve the problem, since, as an user, I cannot switch over to albatross, and the new skin does not allow changing menu items and modifying skin. It is not possible for me to really move to albatross.
Staying in Dodo is not good, since it is hard to edit and hard to get others to use XWiki.
What other options do we have in using XWiki farm sites?
Thanks for help.

I am a bit confused.
According to the xwiki web site, the xwiki software falls under the GPL.
However, there is a creative commons license at the bottom of each page
created by xwiki.
Does this mean the content and data in xwiki falls under the creative commons
license? Can I keep the creative commons license on the xwiki specific
documents and remove the creative commons license footer on my on content and
data?
Kudos to all the developers on the xwiki project. Nice job.
Sincerely,
Carlos Pruitt
Hello !
Is there a way to retrieve the list of available skins from the wiki? I know
i can search the pages from XWiki.XWikiSkins class, but this way i don't
retrieve the skins that are stored into a folder (like albatross, dodo..etc
in XWiki). Is there a trick to get automatically the list of all the skins
(those with a XWikiSkins object + those stored in a folder) ?
It would be useful for example if you want to give the possibility to the
user to choose his skin into a selectbox, without having to add manually
each skin to the box, each time one skin is added.
Thanks!
-Nicolas-
PS: thanks Vincent for your quick answer about velocity-tools last time!
Ah! :) I just had to log in again to make it work...

Hi,
This might be a stupid question but I hope someone will be patient enough to answer it;
How do I make a new blog? I don't want another entry, I want another blog. My company wants to give each developement project their own blog on the company xwiki.
I've scanned the mailinglist archíves and the xwiki.org site for help, but haven't found anything useful.
I would greatly appreciate your help on this
A blog is made of the following:
- An Article class and associated classsheets/templates
- XWiki documents to which an Article object is added to
- A Main XWiki Document listing blog entries (Blog.WebHome)
Right now the classsheet and Blog.WebHome pages use the Blog.Macros document to display blog entries. That macro looks for all documents in the xwiki which have an Article object attached.
If you want several blogs you'll need to add a variable to tell the Blog.Macros macro to only look in a portion of the wiki. For example you could decide to pass a Space so that only blog entries in that space are displayed.
Try editing the Blog.WebHome page and the Blog.Macros macro and you'll understand.
Warning: you'll need some understanding of XWiki objects/classes/templates. See the dev guide for more on this.
Thanks
