I have found the solutions to my issues so I thought I would share.
I am looking to modify the editor in two ways:
1) I would like to change the default editor to the new CKEditor per these instructions:
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/CKEditor+Integration#H…
I get stuck at: "In order to open the CKEditor by default (i.e. replace the default
editor) you can edit the CKEditor.EditMenuEntry page in Objects mode…”
This page is hidden but can be navigated to in the address bar for example:
localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/CKeditor/EditMenuEntry
At this point you can select Edit>Objects then replace the code as instructed.
2) I would like to change the “Is Minor Edit” to
checked by default and these are the only instructions I can find:
http://lists.xwiki.org/pipermail/users/2009-August/012857.html I can locate many files in
the /usr/lib/xwiki/templates folder that start with the word ‘edit’ but none of them are
‘editactions.vm’.
The users post referenced appears to be dated. I don’t know of the terminology has changed
over time but the current location is within the skins folder not templates and it also
can be navigated to in the address bar at:
localhost:8080/xwiki/skins/flamingo/editactions.vm
Ultimately I used the Overridded Templates feature of the Skins Application to modify the
file. I did this to the default skin which I do not think is entirely correct (it may get
overwritten with an update) but my attempts to override the whole skin utterly failed with
permission errors, blank pages and multiple wipe/re-rolls of my test vagrant box.
If anyone has suggestions for proper implementation of modifications to the skin I would
welcome them. I have read the documentation thoroughly but the distinction between the
current and deprecated approaches is a bit fuzzy. I found that following the directions
exactly did not produce the results indicated.
