Re: [xwiki-users] Classification in Xwiki

Hello, I have tried several enterprise wiki and I like Xwiki very much appart from one thing that makes me hesitant to go for it. This thing is the classification. It seems so messy for me to not have a clear classification of the pages and documents, and I think others get crazy with it too. What would seem logical and intuitive for me is to have by default a side panel with a tree of all the directories (or categories or spaces, depending on how you call it), sub directories, sub sub, and pages. By default this panel would be empty and as soon as you create a first test directory and a first test page, this panel would start to fill up. This would be the main menu by default. Xwiki has spaces, that's well. But why cannot we create sub spaces and why are they not displayed in a hierarchical menu on all pages? My suggestion is a kind of taxonomy improvement. We could have displayed by default on all pages: - a panel with a tree of the spaces and pages - a panel you can expand with the type of documents (wiki pages, documents, etc) so that you can access to a page displaying all the wiki pages, to a page displaying all the documents, to a page displaying all the blog posts, to a page displaying all the comments, etc. - a panel you can expand with collections (or "categories"). This collections would be created by the administrator and would be for example "Procedure", "Specification sheet", "Documentation", "News", etc. - a panel you can expand with all the users. When you click on a user, you can see a page with all the pages he has created, all the pages he as modified, etc. - a tag panel The Classification is one of the most important aspect in an ressources/knowledge/procedure portal. It seems for me that the classification should be improved in Xwiki. If I haven't understood something, could you help me by giving me the good practises on how enterprise organise their documents in xwiki so that it is easily and intuitively accessible by their users.
