Spaces
A space is a container for pages. In other words it's a set of pages grouped together under the same name. You may have noticed the notation [Space.Page]. This is a link to the page named "Page" in the "Space" space. Thus a page is uniquely identified by both its space name and its name. For XWiki.org for instance, the content is organized within the spaces on the right. This type of organizations helps in creating a taxonomy whereby you have the ability to create subdivisions (eg, server.name/Wiki/XWiki) to better organize information and manage rights more easily on your XWiki.Space creation
Spaces are created implicitly and automatically as soon as one page is created with its name as the page space name. For example if you create a link in a page to [NewSpace.Page], the first time you click on the link to create the page the "NewSpace" space will be created and the page will be saved inside it.Snippets for spaces
- If you want to list all the spaces in your wiki, check out the "List All Spaces" code snippet.
- You can also use the Space deletion snippet to delete all pages in a space (hence the space itself) at once.
- If you want to rename a full space, see the Space Rename Snippet.

- Creating a page in the new space with the same page name.
2. Copying the contents of the page in the old space to the page in the new space. 3. Deleting the old page. I'm hoping that there is a "move" snippet that I can use.
