Publication Workflow Application: Default Target Space

Maybe someone using Publication Workflow Application can give some hint:

I can set a default target space in the workflow’s configuration, but it does not seem to be picked up - instead, the space the page I’m just adding to the workflow itself is always shown as the initial target space, which does not make much sense and causes malfunctions of the workflow if forgotten to be changed.

It’s documented differently, so I’m probably doing something wrong. :wink:

Hi @GOhrner,

The `defaultTargetSpace` property was introduced in Loading... which explicitly mentions that the work needs to be continued in Loading... so the property is actually used in the publication workflow macro. Until then, it needs to be manually set.

Hope it helps,
Alex

Thanks for the information!

Admittedly, that’s very confusing though - there’s an even documented configuration setting which in effect actually does nothing. :wink: Maybe at least the corresponding documentation on https://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/XWiki%20Publication%20Workflow%20Application#HConfiguration should be extended with a clearly visible warning about this? (Or maybe the setting can be hidden in the form until it actually does something.)
