Hello,
About my new site on
myxwiki.org, I'm very disoriented about the
customization of welcome page ...
If i'm login as Admin, Main.WebHome show only this text:
<<> > équipe à mieux travailler ensemble. Ce wiki se compose de pages
organisées
par espaces. Vous êtes actuellement sur la page d'accueil (WebHome) de
l'espace principal (Main).
Vous pouvez utiliser le bac à sable afin de tester les fonctionnalités de
votre wiki.>>
When I'm login as admin if I edit my welcome page this message is
displayed on top of gadget dashboard:
<> > document différent,coc:WikiManager.Dashboard. Vos changements auront un
impact sur toutes les pages incluant cette configuration de tableau de
bord. Si vous souhaitez personnaliser cette page, éditez-la en mode WYSIWYG
et configurez la macro "tableau de bord" avec un paramètre source
vide.>>
I don't understand what's meaning " configurez la macro "tableau de
bord"
avec un paramètre source vide"? I must edit the source of Main.Welcome and
replace {{dashboard source="Main.Dashboard" /}} by {{dashboard
source=""
/}} ?
If I follow the instruction like a normal user, I'm quickly lost: I can
not follow this instruction and I obtain 2 different welcome page depending
of language of my browser: english one with dashboard and the french one
with the short text "C'est un site web facile à éditer..."
http://coc.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/?language=fr
http://coc.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/?language=en
In my advice, xwiki must be simplier to customize welcome page. It is the
first impression the most important, isn'it?
I couldn't agree more with this one.
I've been thinking for a while now that we should have a standard wiki page
as the home and make the dashboard available from an icon on the app bar.
We already have the Dashboard in the app bar.
The current way it works right now is uselessly
confusing.

this topic, where I tried to have the best of both worlds.
I didn’t succeed in convincing others that it was a good solution though so it stayed as
an extension.
Thanks
