Hi, I'm very new to xwiki. Thanks so far to everyone that is contributing... I have created a new class. And I would like to include author as a property in the class, and have it automatically populate with the user's name. I tried looking at comment class but couldn't see how this get's done. Could someone help me out? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/display-author-creator-as-property-tp4150822p4150822.h… Sent from the XWiki- Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

You don't really need to do that since the document already stores the page's creator name and the name of the last person who modified it. You can access them through $doc.author and $doc.creator . Alternatively you can add an "author" field to your class and have it populated using the value returned by $context.user . Hope this helps, Guillaume

Thanks. That's very helpful!! Now I have an extra property in my class which I can't delete - how I can I hide it? I've tried renaming it "unused_author" but it still appears? Thanks On 11/12/2009, at 2:16 PM, Guillaume Lerouge [via XWiki] wrote:

Unfortunately property deletion doesn't work yet. You've got 2 choices: - Recreate your class from scratch - Modify the Sheet page to tell it not to display the useless property. If you didn't change the standard one, you can add an #if check before the property: #foreach($prop in $class.properties) #if($prop.getName() != "unused_author") ; $prop.prettyName : $doc.display($prop.getName()) #end #end might work. Good luck, Guillaume
