There is another problem In that the children don't inherit the parents site.xml correctly (or probably more accuratly the parents site.xml gets munged when it is deployed.)
E.g we have a corporate pom which defines a site.xml which contains <menu ref="modules"/> However when this gets deployed the <menu ref="modules"> has gone. And as any multi-module project that has the corporate pom as its parent doesn't show the list of it's modules... Also it's missing any comments that where inside it. Shouldn't the deploy deploy the descriptor as is? E.g. the following: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/DECORATION/1.0.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/DECORATION/1.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/decoration-1.0.0.xsd";> <publishDate format="dd MMM yyyy" /> <body> <breadcrumbs> <item name="Infrastructure" href="http://xxx.yyy/some/path/default.aspx"; /> <item name="Runtime" href="http://xxx.yyy/some/other/path/default.aspx"; /> </breadcrumbs> <menu name="${project.name}"> <item name="Introduction" href="index.html" /> </menu> <menu ref="parent" /> <menu ref="modules" /> <menu ref="reports" /> </body> <!-- a random comment --> </project> Becomes <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><project> <publishDate format="dd MMM yyyy" /> <body> <breadcrumbs> <item name="CAB Infrastructure" href="http://xxx.yyy/some/path/default.aspx"; /> <item name="Runtime" href="http://xxx.yyy/some/other/path/default.aspx"; /> </breadcrumbs> <menu name="NDS CAB Maven build environment"> <item name="Introduction" href="index.html" /> </menu> <menu ref="parent" /> <menu ref="reports" /> </body> </project> Note that reports have gone and the name is now hard coded? /James > -----Original Message----- > From: Benson Margulies [mailto:bimargul...@gmail.com] > Sent: 16 July 2009 00:29 > To: Maven Users List > Subject: Re: site.xml for parent/child site which are siblings > > I never attached the workaround to the JIRA.
