[xwiki-users] How to enable the new WYSIWYG editor
Hello, I have just installed the new version of XWiki but I didn't find instructions on how to enable the new GWT editor. I have tried XWiki v 1.7 stable and 1.8 M2, and when I try to edit a page, it proposes the old WYSIWYG editor. As the new editor is not enabled by default, is there a configuration setting somewhere to enable it? Thanks in advance, Cristi. -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/How-to-enable-the-new-WYSIWYG-editor-tp2316851p2316851....

The new wysiwyg editor works with the XWiki 2.0 syntax, so all you have to do is edit in wysiwyg mode a document with this syntax. In order to change document syntax, use the panel you can find on the right column, in edit mode (you'll have to edit in wiki mode for the syntaxes dropdown to be enabled). Happy editing, Anca Luca
Thanks in advance, Cristi.
Dear Anca, Thank you for your tip, it's working :). However I see that when inserting headings the document is displayed correctly (after the edit), but I cannot edit the sections of the document any more(ie my Heading 1 entries). I can only edit the whole page. Another question, is it possible to set XWiki 2.0 syntax as default? I have noticed that in the administration page there is a drop down to configure the default editing mode (wysiwyg or plain text), but I didn't notice something similar for specifying the syntax.

That is because XWiki syntax 2.0 is rendered using the new rendering engine (so its a big new renderer + new syntax + new wysiwyg editor "revolution") which does not add the edit section links to the headings (whereas the "old" renderer which renders XWiki 1.0 syntax does).

No, there is no method to do that yet (see http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-3151 ). Happy editing, Anca Luca

Hi Cristi, Note that our objective is to have XWiki Syntax 2.0 by default for new documents starting in XWiki Enterprise 1.8 final Regards, Jerome

Dear Anca, And will section editing be available in the new version (1.8)? Personally I find this feature a must, in order to easily edit pages that are rather large. 2nd question: is there a release date planned for the 1.8 stable version?

Yes, it's a very useful one. I just found this on jira: http://jira.xwiki.org/jira/browse/XWIKI-2881 . Happy XWiki-ing, Anca Luca
