[xwiki-users] Lossing Data Changes in Version 1.7 - Why?
Hello: I am relatively new to xwiki. I'm running version 1.7. Occassionally, I will make changes to a wiki page it seems to sort of flicker and all of a sudden I'm looking at a version of the page from many versions back. In other words I am losing data. I'm trying to diagnose the problem. Could it be the type of data I'm entering? It seems to happen when I'm using the wysiwyg editor? Is this happening to other users? Any ideas? Thanks Lee

Does saved content disappear, or only changes you are making in the editor get lost during editing? Is this the old WYSIWYG editor, or the new one? -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/

What syntax appears in the Document Information panel on the right when you edit? If it's xwiki/1.0 then you're using the old WYSIWYG.

Ok. I'm confused. I downloaded version 1.7 (enterprise). Does this version have the new wysiwyg editor? Does it also have the old version? How do I get the app to use the new version of the editor? I did find one other fact. When I select the wysiwyg editor and then try to select wiki 2.0, an error message is displayed that says these are not compatible. So I assume this is consistent with your earlier message? So what I need to know is how to enable the new version of the editor. Thanks Lee
Hi Lee, Since we had issue with our old wysiwyg editor we've decided to rewrite it from scratch. There's a preview version of the new editor in 1.7.1 but it's not perfect and I'd suggest you wait till 1.8M1 is released (on Monday) before trying it out. It'll be final for the 1.8 final release which is planned for March 2009. To use the new editor, edit in wiki mode, select 2.0 syntax in the Information panel on the right and save. The next time you hit edit it'll use the new editor. Note that in 1.8M1 there's the first version of an automatic converter from xwiki 1.0 syntax to xwiki 2.0 syntax. Let me know if this is still not clear -Vincent On Jan 17, 2009, at 7:02 PM, Lee Chalupa wrote:
