Installable with the Extension Manager

Description

Another Like Application has been created and is now included by default in XWiki Standard since 12.7RC1.

Use it!

The idea of this application is to have feedback of the user on each page you have interest in.  Therefore, you should put a like button on each page that you're interest in.

To put this like button, use likeButton macro.

{{likeButton/}}

Save and view the page.  You should now see the following buttons on the page.

Get the data from it

All the data can be displayed on the PageRatings.WebHome page.  You should see a livetable that list all the pages that have been rated at least by one people (user or guest).

You can also export data for each page or for all pages as a CSV.

Admin users can clear the rating data for a given page.

Prerequisites & Installation Instructions

We recommend using the Extension Manager to install this extension (Make sure that the text "Installable with the Extension Manager" is displayed at the top right location on this page to know if this extension can be installed with the Extension Manager). Note that installing Extensions when being offline is currently not supported and you'd need to use some complex manual method.

You can also use the following manual method, which is useful if this extension cannot be installed with the Extension Manager or if you're using an old version of XWiki that doesn't have the Extension Manager:

  1. Log in the wiki with a user having Administration rights
  2. Go to the Administration page and select the Import category
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to upload the downloaded XAR
  4. Click on the uploaded XAR and follow the instructions
  5. You'll also need to install all dependent Extensions that are not already installed in your wiki
