RE: [xwiki-users] Is there a way to escape XWiki syntax?
This is a significant usability issue that I raised over a year ago (http://old.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Dev/SyntaxProcessingIssues). Because of XWiki's multiple rendering engine support, escaping the syntax is harder than it should be. It was scheduled to be addressed for the 1.0 release, but I was disappointed to see that addressing this has been bumped back to 1.1: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-208 Still, I'm glad to see determined movement towards a final 1.0 release, and hopefully this issue can be addressed in the 1.1 release.

Yes, we're trying very hard to have a stable 1.0 release. It's not perfect, and of course there are missing features, but if we'll wait until everything is implemented, we'll never have a 1.0 release. Don't worry, there will be a macro for printing unescaped code. And thanks for using XWiki, Sergiu Dumitriu On 1/13/07, Stephen Schaub <[email protected]> wrote:

Try enclosing the wiki markup with {pre}...{/pre} as well as {code}...{code}; also try putting a back slash (\) before the hash/pound (#) character.

Hi, I'm new at this. I've been trying to figure out a way to write some example wiki pages that explain the XWiki syntax better to my users. However, the XWiki engine always seems to want to interpret the markup rather than showing it as a literal.
For example, if I do:
{code}
1.1 This is how to create a heading
{code}
The "1.1" is not visible on the page, and the heading is rendered fully styled. This also happens with markup such as "#includeTopic". You can see an example of the problem here as well:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/TuTAddSearch
Is there any way to really make XWiki ignore a block of text?
Thanks in advance,
