Hello again, I have finished updating the FAQ tutorial. You might need to clear your cache (Ctrl + F5 on most browsers) to see the updated screenshots. I have followed the updated tutorial myself and was able to successfully create a FAQ application. Thank you, Manuel On Wed, Aug 26, 2015 at 9:13 AM, Manuel Smeria <[email protected]> wrote:
Hello Alex,
I will look over the manual FAQ tutorial this week and update it. I'll also add some links to the documentation pages for the terms you specified.
Thank you, Manuel

Hi,
I need to modify an XWiki application to add some functionality, but I am new to XWiki and I am having a really hard time understanding it. I'm running XWiki Enterprise 7.1.2. The FAQ application tutorial <http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorialManual> looks promising, but the instructions are outdated and I can't figure out how to get a finished product that looks like what the tutorial has. The following instructions are particularly problematic:
In the code, change the word "Main" with the name of the space where you want you FAQ pages to be created
There is no word "Main".
If you click on "View the template document" and edit that page in wiki mode, you will see the following code: {{include document="FAQ.FAQClassSheet"/}}
The page is blank, I don't see any code.
Use the Create top level menu (when using the Colibri skin) or the Create Panel to create the FAQ.WebHome page
I don't see anything marked "Create".
Is there an experienced XWiki developer who would be willing to go through the FAQ application tutorial and rewrite it to make sense for the latest version of XWiki?
More generally, it would be very helpful to have a glossary that defines and relates terms like "application", "page", "document", "object", "property", "class", "template", and "template provider". These terms are used in the documentation with little or no explanation, which adds to the confusion.
