Hi, Vincent,
How to set up PHP on XWiki farm? Not my own server. Is it possible?

Since you asked for a wiki on myxwiki.org I guess the question is whether you can use it
on that farm. The answer is no. The reason is that we're not allowing users to use
script macros such as PHP, jython, ruby and groovy. Only the Velocity macro is made
available. The reason is that those script macros are very powerful and anyone could
easily break the security of the farm or do dangerous things (like wipe all data on the
server's hard disk for example). Thus we've not giving programming rights to users
on the myxwiki farm.
In the future we'll be working on defining a way to be able to restrict what you can
with programming languages so that only edit rights would be necessary to use them in a
"sandbox mode" but we're not there yet.
Right now the only way for you to use the PHP macro is by installing XWiki Enterprise or
XWiki Enterprise Manager on your own machines (and thus have programming rights).
Sorry about that.
Thanks
-Vincent

Verify the spelling or contact your administrator.
How to use PHP on XWiki farm site?
The PHP macro is not bundled by default.
To use it see:
