[xwiki-users] Period in Page Name
Hi All, We are manually copying over quite a lot of content from a Confluence Wiki into an Xwiki wiki, and a problems that we keep hitting is periods in page names. As an example if I enclose in square quotes "init.d changes for tomcat6 on Ubuntu 10.10" Xwiki displays it as just "10" when showing the page, however it creates it with URL " http://f.q.d.n/xwiki/bin/view/init.d+for+ubuntu+10/10" Am I missing something ? Cheers

Hi Vincent, I'm on 3.0.36132 which was upgraded from 3 milestone 2. I can re-create it by going into the sandbox, creating a new page with just [[init.d changes for tomcat6 on Ubuntu 10.10]] in it. and then clicking "save and view" As we are copying in Confluence content, my default editor is not the wysiwyg one. Cheers

You have to escape . in link reference because . is also used for separating the space name from the page name. In you case you are creating a link to page "10" in space "init.d changes for tomcat6 on Ubuntu 10". I guess you want to write: [[init\.d changes for tomcat6 on Ubuntu 10\.10]]
in it. and then clicking "save and view"
As we are copying in Confluence content, my default editor is not the wysiwyg one.
Too bad because the WYSIWYG editor escapes the . in page names when creating links. Hope this helps, Marius

Indeed

Haven't tried but I thought the escape symbol was "~": [[init~.d changes for tomcat6 on Ubuntu 10~.10]] -Vincent

Ah yes indeed my bad, "~" is to escape wiki syntax but this isn't wiki syntax, it's the syntax for references. Thanks -Vincent
