References Application

References Application

The References application allows you to enter project names and information as well as an associated image easily and display a list of those projects & images on a page displaying a quick view of all References.

The best way to grasp the concept is to see how it works on the References Page (Code View available here).

Once the Application is installed, use the References page to enter a new ref. Individual reference pages display the first image you attach to the page.

How to use

All you have to do is to download the XAR and import it in your XWiki. Then you will be able to add new references on the http://<server>/xwiki/bin/view/References/ page.

The Template and Sheet are available on http://<server>/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/ReferenceClass.

You can change the default image to another one. To do so, you need to change 2 things.

• On the http://<server>/xwiki/bin/view/References/ page, you need to replace the image URL with the one you want to use (this is the thumbnail):

79:       #else
80:          <img style="width: 100px; height: 87px; border: 1px; border-color: #000000; border-style: solid;"
src="http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/download/References/WebHome/XWikiReferenceThumbnail.png"/>
81:       #end

• On the http://<server>/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/ReferenceClassSheet page, you need to replace the image URL with the one you want to use (this is the large one):

57:  #else
58:   <img style="width: 400px; border: 1px solid #000000; margin-top: 14px;"
src="/xwiki/bin/download/XWiki/ReferenceClassSheet/XWikiOrgReference.png"/>
59: #end

The References Application can be seen in action on the References Page
