Hi,
I'm new to XWiki and Velocity too,
I don't understand how to set a new skin by the "Edit object" page.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue? At the moment I'm trying to modify the
Albatross skin by css... I know there is a better way to do this... but after I've
read the guide I'm not able to do.
I ask if someone can explain me by example...
I do understand that it is not easy
to understand how the whole thing
work! Even because many features/structures are evolving in real time.
But what is clear for me is that it is not a good idea to start by
modifying the default skin. You will frequently, and easily, achieve
results that you will want to conserve/use in your wiki. And it is by no
means easy to make an update, which is usually needed to take advantage
of new features, and keep track of the changes you have done in the
default of base skins.
Perhaps "Modifying a skin" in
http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Skins is a bit
messy, but it is a perfect starting point.
Please, what have you done and at where are you stuck? I am sure we
could find the right way of doing the job and modifying this reference
document if needed.
Cheers,
Ricardo
