Sounds more reasonable ;). ________________________________ From: Vincent Massol [mailto:vincent@massol.net] Sent: 29 January 2007 11:54 To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] add elements to menu and edit menu problem Hi Brandon, On Jan 29, 2007, at 10:20 AM, Esbach, Brandon wrote: Vincent/Sergiu: I'm a bit dubious that the Panel's should stay in the "Code" section: as it is an integral part of the official xwiki10 beta skin, should it not be a part of the actual skin docs? It's currently a little bit coupled to the skin but we have a jira issue to decouple it. It's really an application in the same way that we have other applications such as the blog, calendar, photo album, even the Class Wizard, etc. Conversely you could use the Panels with the old skin or with any custom skin. All that said, I do agree to put links to the Panels app from different places: the skin guide, the download page, etc. Any reason you don't think it's an application? The Panel system is also imported with the main xwiki system import (which includes groups, admin user, etc); thus making it more a part of the system than a seperate add on in my mind. The default wiki includes lots of plugins and applications. That doesn't mean that if you're creating your own wiki you need to include all the apps and plugins included in the default wikis. In the future I'd like to: 1) move all plugins in svn in xwiki-plugins and make them available separately 2) do the same for applications. Users would be able to pick whatever applications they want and the community will be able to contribute new applications. Of course the default wiki will continue to pick plugins and applications from the available set. Have I convinced you? :-) Thanks -Vincent From: Sergiu Dumitriu [mailto:sergiu.dumitriu@gmail.com] Sent: 26 January 2007 22:37 To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] add elements to menu and edit menu problem Starting from Beta2, the Panel Wizard works in Internet Explorer, too.

Cool. Yes that would be good to do. One thing to note is that I've considered Panels to be an application so far. Thus it's documented in the Code Zone in http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Code/PanelsApplication I'd like to keep the documentation there (but it can certainly be improved). However we definitely need to put pointers to it in different places. thanks for taking care of this! -Vincent In Beta1 and above, the sidebars are actually referred to as Panels (assuming you're using the xwiki10b1 skin). Before doing the following you will need to login as Administrator. Here's the rough set of steps to do what you're looking to do: To edit or add Panels: 1) Change your url to look something like the following: http://yourserver:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Panels/ 2) You should be presented with a listing of current panels, with options to edit and add new panels. 3) NOTE: the Panel Wizard does not work for Internet Explorer. 4) Add any panels you wish to include, check first though as you may find what you want in the existing panels. Alternatively, edit an existing panel to reflect what you wish to show. To get access to what Panels are loaded (and where), click on the link Administration under the "Log out" link in the top right hand corner. 1) Select the "Skin" section. You should most likely be using xwiki10b1's skin, as default - if not, it is the better one to use, and it uses panels which are easier to manage than raw coded menus. 2) In the "Left Panels" entry, type in the name of each Panel to show in the left hand column. This should be in the format " Panels.MiniSearch"; seperated by a comma (eg: Panels.MiniSearch,Panels.HomePanel) 3) There is a seperate choice of showing the Left Panel, and for showing the Right Panel. Make sure the one you wish to use has "Yes" selected (by default, the Right Panel is set to "Yes"; while the Left Panel is set to "No"). That's pretty much it... ________________________________ From: Маловичко Дмитрий [ mailto:drdred87@mail.ru] Sent: 26 January 2007 11:53 To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: Re: [xwiki-users] add elements to menu and edit menu problem The version is beta1, can you help me please with this problem? ----- Original Message ----- From: Esbach, Brandon <mailto:Esbachb@tycoelectronics.com> To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Sent: Friday, January 26, 2007 1:40 PM Subject: RE: [xwiki-users] add elements to menu and edit menu problem Which version? If for Beta1 or above, the panels are easy to modify. If older, then it's a different process. ________________________________ From: Маловичко Дмитрий [mailto:drdred87@mail.ru] Sent: 26 January 2007 11:17 To: xwiki-users(a)objectweb.org Subject: [xwiki-users] add elements to menu and edit menu problem Can you help me to understand how can I add new elements to the right and left side menus?
