Hi all,
I have again problems with macros,
contained in a page (XWiki.MyMacros).
This page is referenced in XWiki.XWikiPreferences,
in field “Velocity Macro Pages”, value being “XWiki.MyMacros”.
It used to work well with 0.9.840 and 1.0,
all macros were correctly interpreted in all pages. But now from 1.1M3 and
1.1M4 it does not work anymore …
Do you have any idea why it wouldn’t
work anymore ?
Also, during wiki migrations, I did not
reimport last XWiki.XWikiPreferences pages, to keep my preferences. Could it
explain the problem ? Do you advise reimporting the last versions (1.1M4) of
XWiki.XWikiPreferences page ? Also, how is it possible for such pages (XWiki core)
to compare them to the old ones, and to see if there are differences ?
Thanks for your help,
Best regards,

create a macro ?
Hello,
I applied exactly the solution proposed by
Brian in my Wiki (see his answer below) : create macros in a specific wiki
document, import it with an #includeMacros macro located inside the
"View" field of my skin, like this:
###
### Main "view" template
###
### General wrapper for view actions
###
[.......]
</div>##
main
#template("endpage.vm")
#includeMacros('XWiki.MyMacros')
#end
My problem is that the macro
includeMacros adds {pre} / {/pre} tags that get rendered, and so appear in
all pages. I cannot put them inside the "content" of the page,
because I would have to overload the "contentview.vm" file, in
which is declared the "xwikicontent" div.
How can I get rid of those {pre} {/pre}
tags ? I would like to avoid overloading the "contentview.vm"
because I think it's not a good thing to do (it's not in the default
templates, but in the skins) ...
Thanks,
Jérémie

To expand on Thomas's second option, you
can actually put either the macro definition or a directive including
the document containing it into the view template of your skin (to
make it global as you desired). This can be done either by modifying
/templates/view.vm or the "view" field of your skin (which, if
non-empty, will override view.vm).
And to clarify his reply slightly, the
original macros.vm is actually in the /templates directory. If you wish
your macro to be global, regardless of the skin, I think you will want to
edit that one instead of the one in your skin directory. This is apparently
a change from the pre-1.0 days, when the skins directories didn't contain
template files - I presume that they are now copied there from /templates when
a skin is created.
Vincent (or anybody), can you confirm
this? Are these files actually copied whenever a skin is created, or only
when a custom version of the file's content is desired?
Also, as Vincent mentions in an
intervening reply, you can load macros from an XWiki document rather than from
a file, using the #includeMacros macro (which, in 0.9.8

From what I understand, there's two ways to do it.
One, add it to macros.vm in your skin directory. Two, put it in a
.vm file you include in the document you need to use it in (using
#template("filename.vm")). Anyone know if there any better
ways?

[xwiki-users] How to create a macro ?
|
|
Hi
How can I create my own macro in my xwiki (say, a
macro for adding two numbers). Where should I write it. So that I can use it
from any page ?
Regards
Roopesh
