I want to change the home page that a user sees when they connect to the wiki so that it is more relevant to my company. I've tried to edit the page to remove the Activity list, Messages etc, but I don't seem to be aboe to do so.

Main.WebHome (this page open as a first start page) contains another page (xwiki technology - include). You have many possibilities: 1) You should stop to including 2) You can edit included page 3) You can make automatic redirect from Main.WebHome to another page 4) You can define another page as a starting page 1) You should stop to including - this variant is very simple, but it is not good for the perspective (for example, when you will make an XWiki upgrading). But in your situation (first looking & studying) its enough. To do it - edit Main.WebHome. After opening, You can change the type of editor from the dropdown menu (in a same place where you clicked "edit") - select wiki (default - WISIWIG). Now you can see the real content of this page in a wiki syntax. You will see something like {{include document="Dashboard.WebHome" context="new"/}} - simply delete this text and save the page. You can directly open Main.WebHome in a wiki-editor mode if you type http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/edit/Main/WebHome?editor=wiki - as You see - right part of a link - "?editor=wiki" - defines type of editor. Also you can change default type of editor in a XWiki preferences. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Changing-the-XWiki-home-page-tp7582913p758...

You could also edit included page (Main.Dashboard) in inline mode (that should be the default). You will then be able to pretty easily update the "gadgets" that make up the dashboard, add new ones, remove some, reorganize them by drag'drop, etc. Br, Jérémie Le 18 déc. 2012 18:03, "Pete Fishwick" <[email protected]> a écrit :

Thanks for your Eugen. I like the sound of your last option, changing the page that the wiki starts with.

How do I do that?

cheers Pete
