Hey, Please let me know if i can make changes without notifying the members in page
Asked by radhag:

Each change made in the confluence is being notified to our team members in that space  
1. first that's actually a best practice which let the team members know about what changes are made!  
2. At some point when our outlook keeps buzzing all the time it might irritate few.  

I would like to suggest one thing, why not notify the members of that particular page only once when all the changes are made in that page  
\[ not notifying for every minute change made in that page but notify once while publishing that page \]  

<br />

You can publish a page without notifying anyone that is watching it. Click on the ellipsis (...) when in edit mode and select Publish without notifying watchers.

Export to PDF timeout workaround
Asked by Robert Egan:

I recently had a user who could not export to PDF without timing out (the final document was 244 pages long, so no surprise there). Increasing the timeout did not solve the issue, and while disabling the sandbox did prevent the timeout, the process still exceeded the session timeout. We cannot change the session timeout as per DOD policy, but I did find a clever work around (which is how I know it was 244 pages long) so I thought I'd share with the community.

Export to Word, the print the Word document to PDF.

JIRA Taxonomy Field value disable
Asked by James Olivo:

Is it possible to disable native JIRA field values in a pick list, we have a native JIRA field labeled "Taxonomy" across firmwide screens. I am using this field along with custom fields for our business, however would like to see if its possible on disabling some of the values in the native JIRA field to only show the user the relevant values vs showing the user all of the values.


Answers:
author: Vishwas
body: Hey [@James Olivo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4524594)

Are you mentioning single select list ? If that is the case yes we can disable the custom field values in jira custom field, once disabled those wont be shown to users in create/edit screen.

You can get to see disable option in edit custom field "Context and default values" place

Regrads,

Vishwas

comments: author: James Olivo
body: Thanks Vishwas, it looks like this jira field is a multiselect would that have any impact?, Definitely would like to limit the values in the list to relevant ones, just wanted to confirm we could scale back the number of values displayed for our audience.


author: Vishwas
body: [@James Olivo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4524594) there wont be any impact in multi select field too. In Multiselect field we have parent and child field value, we can navigate to each of them and disable if not required.

The disabled field values will remain to show in the older issue in view only mode but when users try to create new issues the disabled ones will not be available.

jira
Can I use a Jira macro to organize a table with epics, rather than issues, as the primary operator?
Asked by Kelsey Ihinger:

I have set up a Jira Issues table using the macro described here: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/jira-issues-macro-139380.html>

This macro includes the display options I'm looking for: key, assignee, reporter, link to Confluence page.

However, I'm ++not++ looking to organize a table with all of my team's *issues* (there are too many to make this useful), but instead to organize based on our open ***epics**.*

Is this possible while also including in the table the other display options mentioned above?

Thank you!


Answers:
author: Vishwas
body: Hey [@Kelsey Ihinger](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4757962)

Welcome to Atlassian Community !!

It's possible, you can write a JQL filter in same macro like

***project = ABC and issuetype = Epic and status != Closed***

This query will fetch Epic Issues only which are not closed

Regards,

Vishwas

comments: author: Kelsey Ihinger
body: Hi [@Vishwas](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1231381)

Thank you for your response! The search worked, but it didn't bring back exactly what I was hoping for. Here's what I'm running into now:

* I have 23 open epics in my current project (when viewed via my Backlog \> Epics), but my table with the JQL filter you recommended returns 129 issues.
* I'd also prefer to organize alphabetically. Is this possible using the **ORDER BY** operator?
* I have attempted, without success, to change the operator and value to **= Open** to return the 23 epics I'm hoping to see in my Confluence table. Is there a reason this is not an option?

Any further advice or resources would be appreciated!

Best,

Kelsey


author: Vishwas
body: Hey [@Kelsey Ihinger](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4757962)

What is the exact JQL you are using in confluence to pull the data from Jira, maybe we have to narrow the search to streamline to show those epics. Like just pull the status that you are seeing in backlog.

And the ORDER BY operator works too, give a try

Are there any Offline Client options?
Asked by Stewart Fairbairn:

Hi,

I'm wondering if there is any offline client for Confluence? I'm aware that Atlassian do not have a solution to this, but are there any 3rd party solutions?

I've read this page <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-3726> which suggested Firestarter and Road Runner as 3rd party solutions, but both of these solutions seem to be dead as far as I can tell.

Are there any other 3rd Party solutions to work on Confluence offline, and then have the ability to sync with an online version later (with Conflict management etc.)?


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Stewart Fairbairn](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4757894) Welcome to the Atlassian community

Unfortunately there is not an offline option. Roadrunner and other apps no longer exist and there are no other options in the app store.

How to sort templates
Asked by Klaus Ziegler:

Default sorting of templates in Confluence is by actual use; however, we would prefer to have the listings started with the customized templates and not the blueprints. How can this be done?

comments: author: T-Pro Documents
body: Interesting that the community leader phrases that Promoting templates make them "easier to find" and that promoted templates will appear "near the top".

Basically, no user should need to actually search for the right template and if so the customised templates definitely should appear right at the top. Fullstop.  
There is definitely room for improvement!

Synchrony issues
Asked by Alex Gay:

Hi

I have an issue with starting Synchrony.

Let me explain what I did.

We wanted to move our confluence-home to a shared file server.

So I copied that folder to the new share.

Stopped Confluence, and connected Confluence to that new share.

For this I had to activate the Cluster mode (was not active yet)

Since then, I can't start Synchrony anymore.

With the error:

2022-02-14 11:48:12,325 DEBUG \[418:StdOutHandler \[/app/tmc003/atlassian/confluence/jre/bin/java\]\] :message "Cannot bind to a given address: /10.4.17.251. Hazelcast cannot start. Port \[5701\] is already in use and auto-increment is disabled."

When checking:

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/starting-confluence-node-fails-with-port-5801-is-already-in-use-and-auto-increment-is-disabled-hazelcast-cannot-start-error-646186237.html>

It says:

Both nodes are using the same Hazelcast port

As far as I know, I only have 1 node.

Changing the Hazelcast port in the system properties setenv.sh did not solve my issue.

Any suggestions?


Answers:

body: Solved

Bitbucket and Confluence running on the same server,

are both using the same hazelcast port for some reason.

Possible false positive on AV scan in Confluence component?
Asked by Team Technologies:

I run a server with Confluence installed on it, an installation that was completed on December the 30th. Today, my ClamAV antivirus scanner has come back with a hit for an infection ("Win.Exploit.Deepscan-9938899-0") in the file **aspose-words-20.11-shaping-harfbuzz-plugin.jar** in the directory **/var/atlassian/application-data/confluence/plugins-osgi-cache/felix/felix-cache/bundle176/version0.0/document-conversion-library-2.4.2.jar-embedded/META-INF/lib/** - however it appears to have a time modified stamp of December the 30th at 16:43, when the installation was set up.

The MD5 checksum of this file is d4596742116142d2311739dab4155aa5 - is this a false positive or do I have a genuine infection here? Any chance someone else can md5sum this file and compare the checksum for me?

What happend to my Account after connecting to Atlassian?
Asked by Fynn:

I have used Trello for some time.

My account is used for work purposes and I access a shared Board.

When I was away on holiday I did some work from afar and wanted to login from a new computer to my Trello board.

I could not! I was asked to put in my email and next thing was connecting to Atlassian.

So I did, I put in my work email, which I used for my Account already and this way logged in to Atlassian.

But it was not my profile I logged in to. A new Trello account was created.

This Trello account did not have access to the board.

So what the hell happened? I put in my Account information, I had my Username and Password. Why was a new account created?

And now how can I connect my old account to Atlassian, so I can access it from anywhere and from anything?

Oh and this I guess is posted from the new account.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: My best guess is that you missed all the communications about converting Trello accounts into Atlassian accounts.

You'll need to use your old account to log into id.atlassian.com, update the details there if necessary and then use it to log into Trello. If it's still disconnected, then you'll need to talk to the owner of your Trello to get them to add this account to the boards.

Le bacheche personali di Trello sono ora pi? personali, il che significa che non ? possibile creare una bacheca personale e condividerla con qualcun altro.

Hi [@Alfredo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4018857)

Trello personal boards are now more personal, meaning that you can't create a personal board and share it with someone else.

To do this now, you need to create a team. There are free teams, which have a limit to 10 boards and currently you can set up as many free teams as you like, although this may not be the same forever.

You might find this Community question helpful to understand what the changes are and what they mean: [Forced Teams](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-questions/Forced-Teams/qaq-p/1412498?utm_source=atlcomm&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=immediate_general_reply&utm_content=topic)

Adding due date to advanced checklist items on android app
Asked by Carol Rose:

Hi!

I love trello. And I use it all the time. For everything. And mostly on my phone. That said, I have a question... How can I set a due date on a checklist item in the android app? Thanks :)


Answers:
author: Esme Crutchley
body: Hi [@Carol Rose](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3702711)

If you have Trello Business Class, when you click inside a checklist item, just above where you type, should be some options, this is what that looks like on iOS, I would assume it's pretty similar on Android:

![IMG_62667A072A2E-1.jpeg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/103633i44346A565C9AA876/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "IMG_62667A072A2E-1.jpeg")

The one on the left is to assign the checklist item to someone, the one on the right is to @ mention someone (but not assign the item to them) and the middle one is where you can set a due date \& time for the checklist item.

Hope that's helpful!

Should you be able to edit your Trello calendar from without Outlook?
Asked by Trudy Smith:

I have added my Trello calendar to my Outlook 2016. Should i be able to edit it from Outlook and see the updates within Trello? Or is it just view only?


Answers:
author: Esme Crutchley
body: Hi [@Trudy Smith](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4018530)

Welcome to the Community!

If you've used the iCal link, then it's view only.

If you want to be able to move or edit the calendar entries and have that change reflected back on your boards, you would need a PowerUp like Cronofy or Playnway.

Personally, I use Cronofy. It's free for 1 board \> 1 calendar, after that it's around $24 a year to unlimited boards \> unlimited calendars.

Cronofy is a pseudo-2-way-sync, you can change the date and time (by drag and drop) within your calendar and this will change the due date and time on the card, you can edit the description on the event, and this will change the description on the card in Trello, you can also set the duration within the calendar which makes a little slot on the back of the card with the duration in it within Trello.

You can also choose which cards to sync with your calendar, all cards, or only cards that are assigned to you, as well as setting a default duration.

Sorry I couldn't bring better news on the native Trello calendar, but hopefully you'll find a PowerUp that suits your needs.

Please come back to us for anything else!
