Upgraded to beta 4 from beta 3 and it was exactly as easy I had hoped for.
It does fix some of the most annoying things, thanks for that! However, one
simple thing it didn't change is this: we are displaying links to other
services on the same server (like maven-site, maven repository etc) right on
the home page. Now, if I edit that document again, the WYSIWYG mode replaces
all links with ../../../.. in an obvious attempt to make them relative
instead of absolute as XWiki figures they must be links pointing elsewhere
in the XWiki itself. Saving again renders the links non-working. Is there a
way to enforce the links remain absolutely or should I open a bug?

Hi,
is there a functionality in XWiki to send link information to a
trackback enabled application like Jira or receive this kind of
informations? And if not, what would be the easiest way to do this?
We would like to use XWiki in our company as a knowledge base. And if
there are automatically created links between jira and XWiki (in
both directions) this would be great.
For all of you who don't know what trackback is:

Hi folks,
Wondering if anyone has had the opportunity to use the email plugin at
all on B2 or B3?
Specifically, I have two things I'm trying to acchieve:
1) Setup email notifications for changes to specific parts of a document
(eg, change occurred to field x in document y). Can't seem to find
anything specific for details on this,- if there is something there,
please point me in the right direction.
2) Emailing from the Xwiki system directly (documentation/faq for which
seems to have disappeared since I last used it to implement on 0.9.840).
The origional sample which Ludovic wrote up is still there
(http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Demo/SendMail on the old xwiki
site), but configuration documentation seems to be missing, From
recollection, there was a few things we had to configure - as the
default HELO is sent using a combination of fields which includes the
version number (and naturally gets rejected by our SMTP server as it is
not a valid email address supplied as origionator).

I am implementing XWiki as an internal knowlegde base for the IT
department I work for. The installation was straightforward and went
relatively smooth. We are using XWiki 1.0 Beta 3 / MySQL 5.0.27 /
Tomcat 5.5.17 on a Windows machine and after exploding the war file I
have imported all of xwiki-1.0-beta-3.xar.
However, when I edit a (new) page with the WYSIWYG editor and try to
insert an image, the (uploaded) image is displayed correctly in
TinyMCE but doesn't show when I save the page. The html source code
only shows an <br/> tag where the image was.
When I add an image in the Wiki editor, the tag '{image:example.jpg}'
is inserted and after changing the file name (in WYSIWYG or Wiki
editor) and saving the page, the image is properly displayed. But when
I try to edit and save the page, the image is again removed.
This behavior is a real show stopper for us. I searched the user email
list and JIRA but can't find anything about it. Does anyone recognize
this and knows a solution or workaround?
Thanks in advance!

Hi, Vincent and Jean-Vincent,
One thing I really like xwiki is that almost all questions posted in the
user list will be answered by others in a timely fashion.
Thank you for your help and my problems are pretty much solved by your
answers.
My previous category->blog post mappings are lost actually due to my blind
import of the 1b3 .xar file. I later on unchecked the Blog.* section and
now I can have my mappings bag via jean-Vencent's code snippet.
I now can access the Tags section via the URL Vincent sent to me. I also
found out I can access the Tagged pages via the Tag page in the Main
space.
I played with the Panel wizard a bit and can get the XWiki space back
there. The drag and drop layout tool is so cool.
I also have modified the skin and did a little customization based on
Vincent's answer. Now my xwiki has been almost up with the 1.0b3 code
base.
Sorry to hijack the session, i thought that was not hijacking but didn't
know that still left some inaccurate meta data in the thread. I will start
a new thread in the future.
Thanks a lot!
-Jimmy

I really like the new skin, especially the comments/attachments/history
display handling, and I don't want that to be missed. I have two
difficulties, however, both related to the elimination of the More
Actions menu:
First, I can't find a direct link to the Edit Objects URL for the page.
It works if I enter it manually (and let me gratefully note here that
the new skin has made the editobject template *much* more friendly), but
none of the menus seems to offer a path to it.
Second, the More Actions menu had an item that mitigated an existing
annoyance, which was that, if a page had objects (other than comments)
displayed on it, the URL in the Edit link was changed to /inline/ from
/edit/. To me it was annoying, but to many users, it was confusing,
which is worse, of course. It got to the point where I always used the
More Actions menu to select inline or edit myself, but now that option
is unavailable. Of course, I can always enter the URL by hand, or use
FoXWiki if I'm opening it from a link, so again it's not a show-stopper
for me but a problem for the Great Unwashed (or, as they say in
Ludovic-land, the sans culottes)...
I know how I can provide these, so I don't need that advice, but it
would, of course, be good to have them available in the default skin, so
I would like somebody to: 1) point out where they are if I've just
missed them; 2) discuss where you think they ought to be from the user's
perspective (especially if, for example, you have already re-implemented
them); and/or 3) suggest a JIRA item to provide them in the default
skin.

Hello,
I'm new on this list, so forgive me for asking this, as I'm sure it's
answered before (but couldn't find it in FAQ). It took me a long time to
figure out how to create a link to the registration form, but finally found
it in one bug report: $xwiki.getURL("XWikiRegister", "register"). However,
now if you put it in a href it works the first time after saving, but if you
edit the same document in (in Wiki view) you see it's getting cut by the
parser at the first double quote, like $xwiki.getURL(". Saving the document
again understandably renders the link non-functional. Is there a proper way
of doing this and/or is there a reason why I couldn't use single quotes
instead of double quotes (as you would commonly circumvent the same problem
in Javascript implementations).

Hi guys, this is my first message here. I would like to integrate Xwiki
inside of my system, using SSO, sharing stylesheets, menus and things like
that.
Anyone knows if there is documentation about that?
I've searched in the web-site, but without results.
Thanks,

Thanks alot guys.
I discovered the PanelWizard Page and I played around with it a bit.
What I did was add the expand/collapse header to it, and instead of
showing all the spaces and eliminating a few, I chose only to show the
spaces I wanted with the Navigator Panel. Looks pretty nice.
Its got some potential if you take the time to play around with it some
more, will see how much time I have left for it.

Hi All,
I was wondering if there was a simple way to get all the options for a
static list - eg, via a query?
In a few of my custom classes, I have several staticlist properties - I
need to cycle through the available options of each within velocity.
