[xwiki-users] 2-1/2 naming questions
Bonjour, We've just upgraded to Xwiki 1.6 and I have some questions from a user that are not necessarily 1.6 specific. 1. Is it possible to have a page name with a period (.) in the name. e.g. [Release 1.6]? In Xwiki 1.0 it renders as underlined 6. In Xwiki 2.0, it doesn't even render as a link. In fact, I can't get any Xwiki 2.0 links to render at all. 2. Is it possible to have Xwiki store attachments with spaces in the name? Say I want to store a file that is called "Marketing Plan Oct 2008.pdf". Xwiki seems to take all the spaces out and munge the filename, especially if it is a long one, it puts in tildes (~). I want my users to be able to download the plan without having to rename it themselves. How do I do that? 3. How beta is the Confluence 1.0 rendering? I made a page like this: h1. header1 h2. header2 h3. header3 h4. header4 Only the h1 rendered correctly, everything else showed up as plan text. That has got to be the most basic page imaginable. Do I have something installed incorrectly?

AFAIK no you can't use '.' in pages names yet.
e.g. [Release 1.6]? In Xwiki 1.0 it renders as underlined 6. In Xwiki 2.0, it doesn't even render as a link. In fact, I can't get any Xwiki 2.0 links to render at all.
Do you use the new syntax for XWiki 2.0 links ? See http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiSyntax#HLinks

The cleaning is made on javascript side of standard attachment UI, you can modify this UI or create you own attachment UI.
3. How beta is the Confluence 1.0 rendering? I made a page like this:
In fact it's more alpha than beta, we directly use Doxia's confluence module (See http://maven.apache.org/doxia/) and did not even tested it yet, it's more a proof of concept for our wiki parser component API.
h1. header1 h2. header2 h3. header3 h4. header4
Only the h1 rendered correctly, everything else showed up as plan text. That has got to be the most basic page imaginable.

No I doubt that. If it's working (even half working) I think all is ok on your side, there is not configuration yet for parsers other than XWiki.
Thanks,

The syntax is [[...]] in XWiki Syntax 2.0.

The only syntaxes that are currently working well (i.e. that have been tested and worked on) are the XWiki Syntax 1.0 and XWiki syntax 2.0. The others are experimental. As Thomas said, for the confluence syntax we're using the Parser provided by Doxia and we haven't started testing how well or how bad it is yet. I wanted to finish the new XWiki 2.0 syntax support first before moving to other syntaxes. BTW I'm still waiting for Doxia to release its 1.0 beta 1 version to incorporate it (right now we're using an old Doxia alpha since that's the last released version). Note that even the XWiki Syntax 2.0 is still beta and is meant to be finalized for XE 1.7 (mid December) but I think it's working quite well already. If you find any issue with it please report it in JIRA since that will help us a lot to stabilize it. Thanks -Vincent

The cleaning is made on javascript side of standard attachment UI, you can modify this UI or create you own attachment UI. According to my experience the shortening with the tildes(~) only is made in the Javascript UI. Yet, the deletion of spaces and "special" characters happens in com.xpn.xwiki.web.UploadAction.java:92 filename = context.getWiki().clearName(filename, false, true, context); AFAIK this was added in version 1.3 with the following comment: // TODO : avoid name clearing when encoding problems will be solved // JIRA : http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-94 which was changed resently to: // Issues fixed by the clearName : // 1) Attaching images with a name containing special characters (é & è à ...) generates bugs // (image are not displayed), XWIKI-2090. // 2) Attached files that we can't delete or link in the Wiki pages, XWIKI-2087. So it looks to me that the "fix" soved: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2087 http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2090 The clearName itself possibily will be needed at least until: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-94 is solved. Does anybody know more about this issue and the progress on it? Thanks, Fabian. 2008/10/16 Thomas Mortagne <[email protected]>
