Hi,

 

We are trying out XWiki, TWiki, DokuWiki and MediaWiki, to see which will fit best in our organization as a general collaboration and information tool, for both ever changing project work and documentation, and for more static information.

 

One thing I need to find out, is if it is possible to disable the ever-present “Comments” and “Attachment” fields on the bottom of every page. Can they be enabled/disabled on a per page basis, or do they have to be removed globally (if at all possible)?

 

I’d appreciate if other XWiki users can mail me some trips, tricks and traps: What should I look for specifically to experience XWiki’s strengths over the others, and what do I need to be aware of to avoid its pitfalls (if there are any)?

 

Best regards,

Robert Hercz / Teletopia

Hi Robert,

From newbie to newbie :-) 

As for Comments/Attachments, I think you would want to have a look to the "[xwiki-users] Disable and hide comments" thread started by Marie Sauvage on November the 5th.

About strengths: the people, the data model, rights assignment and management, Java in the background and Groovy, Velocity, HTML, Java, JavaScript and almost anything (now or in the future) in the pages. About pitfalls: just consider that this is a 1.2RCx release.
