Re: [xwiki-users] What does "Version 8.4.3 is installed as dependency" mean?

[novnovice]

Thanks again Marius. I had not made it that far down the page, and it is well
explained there. I see too that in the same are it links to the xwiki 7.x
youtube video I'd found; that must mean that the video is still good for
8.x.

Re: [xwiki-users] Is there an easy way to copy paste multiple images onto a page?

[novnovice]

That's interesting...I just tried it again and at first it seemed that the
issue was solved. Several pasted images were added to the page, each with
it's own distinct name. I was copy/pasting from saved files.

I made some additional experiments and discovered how it was that I saw that
image replacement behavior. In my original tests I was taking a screenshot,
and pasting the image in directly from the buffer. In each case the image
was named "image.png" and effectively the second copy/paste overwrote the
first image. The screen capture software offers the image in each case with
the name image.png.

So it's not really an issue with xwiki. My legacy patterns which I hope to
replace in part with xwiki involve pasting images into word documents as I'm
documenting a process. Word does not retain the image as a file per se; it
absorbs the file, and so there is no assigned file name, or chance of file
name conflict. xwiki does save the image as a file and has no mechanism
(that I know of) for detecting that the two images are different and then
saving the two images as separate files.

If there is an add in that might mitigate this issue that would be ideal,
but I might guess there is not. I may be able to defeat the brain dead
clipboard paste name of image.pgn, and that would solve things very well.

Thank you for your input...since you reported, and I confirmed, that pasting
multiple images can work, I had to look again at why it wasn't working in my
test.

Re: [xwiki-users] Export page in split document

[hamiazuhk26]

Hi marius, i have tried to download ZIP file and see the downloaded file
comes in html format where once we click it will direct to the files we
need. 

I want to ask can I download all title/pages in pdf format?
Is Xwiki allowed to do this?

I fixed the error with http://jira.xwiki.org/browse/XWIKI-13942 .

That's because these applications are not meant to be edited using the App
Within Minutes (
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/App+Within+Minutes+Application
) wizard. They were generated using App Within Minutes and they were
customized afterwards so editing them using the application wizard will
overwrite all those customizations, thus breaking them.

For me the right to edit an application and the right to administer the
wiki are separate things. You may have an "AppDevs" group that is allowed
to edit the applications and which is not allowed to administer the wiki.
You are free to setup the access rights as you want. If you want to prevent
simple users from editing the application then restrict the edit right on
the application class (see
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/App+Within+Minutes+Application#HApplicationPages
).

I agree though that the Ideas and Task Applications could restrict the edit
right to the admin group by default. You should report an issue.

An application is basically a set of wiki pages that you either create
yourself or you use the App Within Minutes wizard to create the pages for
your. See http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/FAQTutorial .
The "application editing" action you tried to use is specific to App Within
Minutes.

Hope this helps,
Marius

On the login dialog where you provide the user name and password there are
two links "Forgot your username?" and "Forgot your password?". Isn't this
what you need?

I can drag & drop multiple images at the same time on the CKEditor (in edit
mode) and they are attached with their file name, not "image.png". It's not
clear where you drop your images.

You download a single file (XAR) which is a ZIP that contains all the pages
that were selected in the export dialog. Did you check the contents of the
downloaded file? Did you try to import the downloaded file on a different
XWiki instance?

Hello,

I found how to fix my {{code}} macro issue.
I must use Tomcat 8.0.33 instead.
With tomcat-8.0.32 (with same java version) {{code}} macro doesn't work.

Export as what? Which export format did you use?

You need to be more precise. For instance you didn't even mentioned what
version of XWiki you're using.

Re: [xwiki-users] is it possible to migrate confluence to xwiki.

[Thomas Mortagne]

The main issue with Confluence usually is that there is no real export
format for Confluence and they just dump the database in XML so
depending on the version there is sometime big differences. I tested
the importer with several version of Confluence but not all of them,
far from it.

If you can share some Confluence package you exported and that you
can't import with Confluence input filter don't hesitate to create an
issue in http://jira.xwiki.org with steps to reproduce and I can try
to debug and fix it.
