| 2 | 1 First steps with XWiki Enterprise | ||
| 3 | |||
| 4 | This page will guide you through the basics of getting started with XWiki Enterprise. | ||
| 5 | |||
| 6 | 1.1 Basic concepts | ||
| 7 | |||
| 8 | XWiki Enterprise is divided into Spaces and Pages. Lateral menus are handled using Panels. | ||
| 9 | |||
| 10 | 1.1.1 Space | ||
| 11 | |||
| 12 | XWiki Enterprise is divided into spaces. A space is a collection of wiki pages. Grouping pages in a space makes them easier to find and browse. | ||
| 13 | |||
| 14 | You can create as many spaces as you want in your wiki and as many pages as you want in every space. | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | Putting pages in the same space can be useful for the following reasons: | ||
| 17 | |||
| 18 | ** Pages located in the same space are displayed together in the navigation treeview | ||
| 19 | ** XWiki Enterprise lets you easily create an index of all the pages in a space | ||
| 20 | ** The wiki's look & feel can be set at the space level (skin + panels) | ||
| 21 | ** User rights can be set at the space level | ||
| 22 | ** Search scope can be limited to a specific space | ||
| 23 | ** The wiki can be browsed by space in the WebDAV view | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | The homepage of a space is usually created at SpaceName\/WebHome. | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | 1.1.1 Page | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | A page is the basic unit of content in XWiki Enterprise. | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | * Actions | ||
| 32 | |||
| 33 | 1.1.1 Panels | ||
| 34 | |||
| 35 | A panel is the rounded widget you can see on the right of every page of your wiki in the standard version of XWiki Enterprise. | ||
| 36 | |||
| 37 | You can control panels in two ways: | ||
| 38 | |||

| 42 | 1.1 First actions | ||
