When a notification email is sent, the macro displayTOC is called from the template bin/edit/XWiki/Notifications/MailTemplate. The TOC is rendered incorrectly, namely, the title of the page that was edited and the link to that page. The title is rendered as a non-expanded variable (i.e. $title) and the link is an hash link like #m_-6751499713143034006_924158579-1710829162000-oT0D49dY, but gets interpreted email clients (GMail and Outlook) as, for example, https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#m_-6751499713143034006_924158579-1710829162000-oT0D49dY. In the photo below, I would have expected the TOC to have the same text/link as the test page, which was the only page edited.
I assume this is a bug. I can get around it by commenting out the call to displayTOC, but it would be nice to have the TOC.
1.) Is there anywhere in the XWiki interface where this link exists? Right now I go to the Pages Index, search for the template I want, click its link, which in this example would be https://xwiki.example.com/bin/view/XWiki/Notifications/MailTemplate and modify manually to be “edit” instead of “view” and also add the ?editor=object query string at the end.
2.) Templates like the MailTemplate rely on macros which exist in the /usr/local/tomcat/webapps/ROOT/templates directory. When XWiki is running in a Docker container, it is a pain to try to modify these files in the file system. Is there any way to modify these files in the XWiki interface like described in question #1?
So you don’t see the link for this page probably because you don’t display hidden pages. Also you probably don’t view the different edit mode of a page because you’re not an advanced user. You can change both values in your user profile see: https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/User%20Module/User%20Profile%20Application/#HEditPreferences
Note that even if you display hidden pages you’ll need to browse a lot in the navigation to find it as lots of technical pages will appear, so what you’re doing right now is probably easier
So it’s not possible for sure to modify those files from the XWiki interface. Outside of docker it’s possible to modify the files with any text editor. Now I don’t know if it’s possible to customized those files in a docker setup, @vmassol might know better.
