Point the Live Data Macro page at the new Live Data documentation

Last modified by Eleni Cojocariu on 2026/09/11 16:40

This is the second half of the conversion: Live-Data-documentation-mig-192aca7f-3179-4e71-98e0-ddf5fb43c1e4.

The whole description xproperty (43,307 characters, 42 sections) was converted, so every section is replaced here by a pointer at the page that now owns it:

SectionsNow at
Usage, In Wiki Syntax, Parameters, ExamplesDisplay a List of Data in a Page and "liveData" Macro
Using Velocity, Script ServiceLive Data Script Service
Live Data Sources, Live Table Results, Properties from Other ClassesLive Data Sources and Migrate a Live Table to Live Data

JavaScript, JavaScript API, Html StructureLive Data JavaScript API
Adding a Panel, Vue Components Loading, LiveTable New Row Naming StrategyLive Data Extension Points
Troubleshooting, Live Table SourceDebug the SQL Query of a Live Data
Persistent State, User Features, Developer Featuresthe user and developer hubs

Every heading is kept, in its original order and byte for byte, including the ones whose body is now a single pointer. A heading's HTML id is generated from its text, so removing one would break every link aimed at it, and the Backlinks list never shows anchors. Order matters too: Parameters appears three times and Example/Examples twice, and XWiki numbers the repeated ids by position.

website is set to the "Documentation" button, as on Panels Application and Icon Theme Application. Note what that does: ExtensionCode.ExtensionSheet hides the description and its heading while website is non-empty, on purpose, so the pointer skeleton above is the stored fallback rather than what a reader sees. It also means the page's #H… anchors stop resolving, which is why the backlinks have to be re-pointed without them.

Only description and website are posted. Every other xproperty, the 7 dependency xobjects, the proxy xobject and the sheet binding are left exactly as they are, and the page is not deleted: it still carries the extension's own metadata.

Two things this change deliberately does not do, both because a file change cannot express them:

  • the page's 12 attachments (liveData-*.png, cards-no-entries.png, table-no-entries.png) are no longer referenced by anything and have to be deleted, which a file change cannot do. The new pages carry their own re-captured screenshots, so nothing is lost by deleting them after this merges.
  • the backlinks of this page still have to be triaged: prose links that mean "read about this" re-pointed at the new pages without their #H… anchor, links that mean "install this extension" left alone. extensions.xwiki.org currently answers a Cloudflare interstitial to the Information tab, so that list has to be read from a browser.
