Ok, I see two items:
- Current issues with inability to move content from for example word
document even using WYSIWYG editor and disappearing texts doesn’t
allow me to get the pages with the same content in xWiki as they were in
word document
- I don’t want to use wiki at least now for coding something
and want to use only what it provides as it’s assured on the site
but in order to make it work for some cases I need to read DevGuide as
well.
- I’m newbie for wikis since never edited wiki pages before
just used as web pages for getting information but what I see that seems xWiki
IRC channel is only for dev discussions or for questions that can be
handled by one answer and providing 4-5 sentences for getting one answer which
will work is not enough.
As I said that xWiki is great tool and perhaps best one for wiki
but these items don’t allow me to get xWiki working now in they way as I
want and since I’m newbie I don’t expect much, just get the same
content from existing documents.
That cwould be good If WYSIWYG editor will be fixed and no
questions will appear about their simple usage so they will not take dev team
to answer.
All IMHO.
Have a good weekend.
Best regards,
Juri.

HI
All,
just
would like to share my first week usage experience with xwiki.
That's great tool and helped me at work but what I
see I need to know it better and deeper. This is not easy
to follow WYSIWYG editor since its usage leads
to unexpected behaviour and incorrect result preview
page sometimes even with disappearing the text and I need to follow macros,
velocity code to get what I want. Summarizing,
it's ok if only me will change the pages but will not be
ok for others in the company since they don't want to
spend time on velocity and introducing macros for
xwiki which leads to that I can't say to them please
go and edit that page by yourself.
We know that the wysiwyg editor has bugs that need to be fixed. See
JIRA for the known bugs.
If you discover a new bug please file it so that it can be fixed.
Just so that you know we're also working on a new implementation of the
wysiwyg editor using a different architecture (GWT) which will make it easier
to maintain.
