Re: [xwiki-users] display page title and name(url) while creating a page

Hi Vishal, That’s an interesting feedback. We’ve tried to already solve this issue in recent versions of XWiki by having a simplified Page Creation UI but apparently you think there’s still a problem so we need to discuss that to try to find a solution. Note that on this screenshot the only thing that the use fills is “Title”. Why is that causing a confusion? Technically we have both notions: Page name and Title. But in the UI shown to the users they only see Title (and internally set the page name to be that title). So they don’t need to know about the Page name concept. I’m curious to know why your users know about the page name concept. You just need to explain to them the title concept. I’m referring to simple users of your wiki. Of course if you also have developers doing scripting in the wiki then they probably need to understand both concepts. Now if you really want to explain the difference between the 2: * Page name is to control the URL displayed, so that you can hand-craft nice URLs for SEO reasons or other * Title is simply what gets displayed in the UI when you view a page Only advanced users have the options to click this pencil button. And our rationale is that advanced users know the difference between page name and title. I’m lost here. You’re saying that there’s a confusion and you want to always show both fields? :) If you’re prepared to bring changes to your instance, you can modify everything in xwiki. You can do this by creating a custom skin and overriding the createinline.vm template. But first I’d like that we find an agreement about what would be best for XWiki since maybe there’s something we need to do on our side to clear any confusion. Thanks -Vincent
