[xwiki-users] Class Wizard - Problem Trying to Add a Page
Hello, I have an App Within Minutes app that I am trying to add a page to. I am attempting to add the page directly to the class using the class wizard. I am assuming that by using the property type "Page", that I add the page that way (please see example from image). <http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/file/n7586855/Screen_Shot_2013-08-30_at_10.29.15_AM.png> I do not understand which of these fields under my "testPage" will be used to provide a path to the page. I put the page name in the XWiki Class Name field, but that did not work. I was expecting the actual page to show up embedded in an entry I am editing or creating (as do other property I use from this wizard like Static Lists, String, and Database Lists), but it is not show up. I hope I have been coherent in communicating what I am trying to do. Any help is greatly appreciated.

You mean a plain wiki page? Did you try the Add > Page top level menu from your application home page? What's the purpose of this page?
I am attempting to add the page directly to the class using the class wizard.
The class defines a data type, i.e. the type of data your application works with. The class doesn't specify any value for its fields. The field values are specified by instances of that class, i.e. by objects of the type defined by that class. So adding a page to a class doesn't make any sense.
I am assuming that by using the property type "Page", that I add the page that way (please see example from image).
By adding a property of type Page to the class you're making sure that all instances of that class (i.e. objects of that type) have a Page property whose value is a reference to a wiki page. Of course, different objects can have different values for that Page property.

I do not understand which of these fields under my "testPage" will be used to provide a path to the page. I put the page name in the XWiki Class Name field, but that did not work.
Again, the field value is not stored in the class but in the objects, i.e. instances of that class. You should probably read http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorialManual . Hope this helps, Marius
