Hello. I finally have time and little resource to experiment with XWiki. Meanwhile, I have installed a new version of XWiki Enterprise: 1.8.17790 I try with the suggest of Sergiu. I made two page, one for a "To do" template and one for "Project" template. Then I made the "redirect" page, starting from an empty page and pasting the code that Sergiu wrote: $response.sendRedirect($xwiki.getURL($request.documentName, 'edit', "template=${request.templateName}")) The problem is that when I select "Save & View" the wiki tell me "This document already exist" I don't undertand where is the problem. Thank you Roberto Sergiu Dumitriu-2 wrote:

A way to implement this now is to: - create the templates as wiki documents - create a redirector page that accepts two URL parameters, document name and template name, and does a redirect with: $response.sendRedirect($xwiki.getURL($request.documentName, 'edit', "template=${request.templateName}")) - create a panel with a text input field for the document name and a select (drop down) list for choosing from the templates, which submits these fields to the redirector page from above
The above redirect works like this: - 'edit' will display the document in edit mode (works well for unstructured wiki documents); you can use 'inline' for structured (form-based) documents. - the "template=" parameter instructs the wiki to use another document as a template for the edited document.
Sergiu, thank you for your answer and for your speed! I have IT experienc from twenty years ago but only in mainframe host system (ibm-cobol-db2) and I have some difficult to understand completely how you tell. I try to show you if I understand. 1) create the templates making one wiki-page for every templates (es. pag template1, template2 etc) 2) create a redirect page that, I think, every users never see but works "hide". How can I make it? How can I make a page that accepts two URL parameters? 3) create a panel (Is like create a page? I think no but I don't know exatly what is panel in this world). Is possibile make it with normal edit-mode or is an activity for developer? In this case what kind of skill I must find? Java programmer is enough?
