FAQ

What can I type in the "Skin" field?

The field suggests the skin pages that exist in the wiki and displays them under their title, and it takes free text as well, so the directory name of a filesystem or extension skin is typed in directly. Available Skins describes the three kinds of skin and how each one is named.

Which skin does the field hold before I change anything?

XWiki.DefaultSkin, shown under its title "Default XWiki Skin". That is the wiki skin XWiki ships, described in Available Skins.
