How to select fields in 'Issues Macro from jira to confluence' from confluence page?
Asked by Anusha_Raju:

Hi,

We are using 'Issues Macro from jira to confluence' to display jira issues in confluence.

We have 2 sub macros : 'Confluence isue macro' and 'JIRA field macro'.

In 'JIRA field macro' , we are not able to select which fields are needed as per our requirement. Some fields are automatically getting displayed.

There is a dropdown. But no field values are shown. Is there any way to show the all jira fields in confluence and we can select which all fields are needed?

I dont need all jira fields but only selected one.

Please gave my suggestions.

Regards,

Anusha

body: Hello Anusha,

Can I know if by Jira field macro, do you mean the table that is generated when there's multiple Jira issues like below.

![JIra_issues_multiple.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/32306i2B826D77CEB4CBE6/image-dimensions/464x59?v=v2 "JIra_issues_multiple.PNG")

If so, then we should be able to edit the columns when in edit mode as below..

Do let me know if that is what you're looking for, or if it's something else.  

Cheers,

Scroll office: numbered headings in table of content macro
Asked by Frederick Roeser:

We've a problem with scroll office. Since we renewed our licence, the export to word in combination with confluence's "table of contents" macro does not work right anymore. The problem is, that the numbers of the headings (e.g., 1.1 topic, 1.2 topic etc.) that are created automatically by the "table of contents" macro are not exported anymore to word. Instead there is just a circle in front of the headings.

Is there any solution to the problem?

Kind regards

Roadmap Planner Macro : Different time scale (not only month/week)
Asked by Rudy Dullier:

I'd like to have more options for time scale, for instance quarter/year.

We have enabled Portfolio but haven't tried it yet.

What is best way going forwarding between these 2 ?

I'd assume using the "Roadmap Planner Macro" for quite high level view on subjects and Portfolio for Jira for actual tracking of "declared" projects (Jira projects detailed enough to figure there).

Bonus : We could see a roadmap for very high items (multiple years) and a more detailed roadmap for current semester.

Would you please give some methods about anything I can investigate?


author: carolyn french

Sorry you're running into this- I'm sure it's just a matter of tweaking something and getting it back up. (If it's not simple, then Atlassian Support is the next level up)

Is your instance cloud or server? [See this article for some tips about including details in your question to help us Community volunteers help you](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Feedback-Forum-articles/Some-reasons-why-you-don-t-get-an-answer-and-how-to-avoid-them/ba-p/657908) :)

Hi,

I m suddenly seeing improper links ( Skip to content, breadcrumbs etc) in the confluence default home page as below. Can anyone help me to get rid of this?

Can we know what version of Confluence are you running on?  
Do you know of any changes to the look and feel sections before this issue occurred?  
Was there any changes to Confluence, like an upgrade or what not before this issue occurred?

Do check the **LOOK AND FEEL** section of the Confluence admin page, as there might have been some customization added there that could explain the links above.

How to white label a cloud Confluence space?
Asked by alexmears:

We are considering using Confluence Cloud as the content manager for our publicly accessible help pages.

However, we don't want to have the help pages following a url pattern that contains "confluence" and our Space key ie.

<https://ourappname.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/IN/pages/3299226/Page+Name>

Crowd Integration with Confluence, JIRA & Bamboo
Asked by cliper:

Hi guys,

So, I've followed the instructions at <https://confluence.atlassian.com/crowd/integrating-crowd-with-atlassian-confluence-198573.html>

under 2.2 Enable SSO integration with Crowd (Optional)

**Expectations:**

I've expected that I can login with my user contained in my Crowd directory.

**Problem:**

If I enable SSO in seraph-config.xml, and try to login, it does nothing and just reloads the login page. Sometimes I get an error Incorrect username/password.

**Session Flow:**Client -\> Goes to my Caddy Server (Proxy) -\> tomcat (Confluence/JIRA/Bamboo)

In short, its behind a proxy. The headers described in the guide above are present. So no question about that.

My setup is at <https://confluence.devsier.com>

So when I enable the SSO in seraph-config.xml,it does not let me login even to newly created users with admin permissions.

Here's some screenshots that might help:

Answers:
author: Bruno Vincent
body: Hi [@cliper](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/507459)

Did you set the SSO domain as *devsier.com* in Crowd's administration console? (Settings \> General \> Single Sign-On cookie settings)

comments: author: cliper
body: I did try that, let me try it again and will report back.


author: cliper
body: Hi [@Bruno Vincent](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/853568), that seems to work after several restarts.

Also, on JIRA, I've also checked the Applications jira-administrators group as it was un-checked under Cog -\> (JIRA Administration) Applications -\> Application access

Define new dashboard section widths
Asked by Chela Wallace:

We recently migrated to Confluence 5.10.9. How do I change the width of the two left default sections, specifically, the middle one, which is too wide?

We have content to the right of it and would like to also manually add in the Recently Updated Dashboard and Favourite Spaces tab macro (<https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/how-to-add-recently-updated-dashboard-and-favourite-spaces-tab-in-confluence-5-9-x-and-above-873861076.html>), but doing so causes the display to be too compressed on the right side.

Also, is it possible to put our Welcome message on the far left and have the other two default sections display to its right?


Answers:
author: Sattesh M
body: Hello Chela,  

This should do. Let me know if it works for you.

```
div.dashboard .dashboard-group.left {
width: 10%;
}
.aui-page-panel-content.content-body {
width: 25%;
}

.aui-page-panel-sidebar.content-sidebar {
width: 75%
}


div.dashboard .dashboard-group.right {
width: 65%;
}

/* CONF-28415 */
form.editor .editor-default,
.editor-fullheight {
height: 100%;
height: auto\9; /* IE8 */
}

#forgot-password {
display:none;
}
```

Cheers,  
Sattesh

comments: author: Chela Wallace
body: Thanks, this does work; I appreciate your help!


author: Sattesh M
body: Hello Chela,

If you are referring to the main dashboard page, you should be able to expand the left sidebar by pulling it, and making the middle section smaller.  

Do you have the option on your Confluence instance?

![expand_sides.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/32544i66977DC2537D1EF0/image-dimensions/357x165?v=v2 "expand_sides.png")

Do let me know if you have any questions.  

Cheers,  
Sattesh

comments: author: Chela Wallace
body: I'd like to expand the Welcome message section to be wider, so that it doesn't wrap (not expand the left section). Ideally, the left section would be the smallest, followed by the middle section and then our Welcome message. Is that possible?


author: Sattesh M
body: Hello Chela,

Could you try using this on the **Global Stylesheet**and see if it makes the desired changes.

* (ConfluenceBaseURL)/admin/editstylesheet.action

```
.aui-page-panel-content.content-body {
 width: 55%;
}
```

You can reduce the 55% to anything lower, to reduce the middle section's width, and reduce the left panel's width just by sliding it around.

Do let me know if this helps! :)  

Cheers,  
Sattesh


author: Chela Wallace
body: This helps make the middle section narrower, but I can't seem to make the right section wider. Here's my current global stylesheet; which parameter controls the right-most section (where the Welcome message displays)? Even though I have .dashboard-group.right set to 65%, it isn't any wider than before.

div.dashboard .dashboard-group.left {  
width: 10%;  
}  
.aui-page-panel-content.content-body {  
width: 25%;  
}

div.dashboard .dashboard-group.right {  
width: 65%;  
}

/\* CONF-28415 \*/  
form.editor .editor-default,  
.editor-fullheight {  
height: 100%;  
height: auto\\9; /\* IE8 \*/  
}

#forgot-password {

Edit source for Confluence site home page
Asked by Chela Wallace:

We recently updated our Confluence instance, and now the homepage does not display correctly. I recall being able to edit the source (HTML) directly, where I easily defined the sections of the home page, to include three tabs of info (such as Recent Updates).

Does this ring a bell with anyone? I can't seem to find where in Configurations I can easily control the display of our site home page.


Answers:
author: Sattesh M
body: Hello Chela, could you be referring to the **Global Layout**by any chance?

* (ConfluenceBaseURL)/admin/listdecorators.action

We can create custom layouts by editing the default **Gloabl Layout** in the page above, and the changes will reflect on the dashboard.  

Do let me know if this is it.  

Cheers,  
Sattesh

comments: author: Chela Wallace
body: I am not a dev; what specifically in the Global Layout would I modify to define the widths of the left nav, Save for Later and Welcome message sections? I'd like to set it so that the relative widths are 20%, 30% and 50%, respectively.

Failed to Login after Reboot Confluence 5.9.6
Asked by BK Lamoreaux:

My server rebooted on Sept 10 and now I can't login.

Checking the atlassian-confluence.log shows the following:

```
recordLoginFailure Failed login attempt for user 'username':
```

I tried to reset my password in the postgresql db to the 'admin' hash following this [documentation](https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf59/restore-passwords-to-recover-admin-user-rights-792499440.html)

However, I still receive the same error as before.

When I try to login with a different user that is in the database I get the following:

```
 login login : 'user2' tried to login but they do not have USE permission or weren't found. Deleting remember me cookie.
```

This makes me think that confluence isn't using my Database to find the users.

On startup I see

```
Database URL: jdbc:h2:tcp://localhost:9092//var/atlassian/application-data/confluence/database/h2db
Database Driver Name: org.h2.Driver
```

This configuration is the same as before Sept 10.

I confirmed that confluence has been using postgresql database by looking at the content dates. The most recent moddate was on Sept 10.

```
select title, creationdate, lastmoddate from public.content
ORDER BY lastmoddate DESC LIMIT 100
```

Why can't I login?


Answers:
author: BK Lamoreaux
body: Figured it out.... I had two instances of confluence running. Apparently the auto startup script was pointing to an older version that does indeed use the h2db database. The key was looking in my home folder and I saw I had a backup script pointing to a confluence2 folder.

Is "Footer setup on a page-by-page basis" an existing ticket/suggestion?
Asked by Wendy Emerman:

Is there a Confluence Cloud ticket/suggestion for adding functionality to apply page footers (in Confluence and on PDF exports) on a page by page basis, instead of for an entire space?

Within our company, we would like to add the security classification of each page, but some pages are Internal, some are Confidential, and some are Restricted.

How about for footers on Word exports?

I looked but did not find, and thought I'd ask the community before creating a ticket.


Answers:
author: Shawn C
body: Hi Wendy,

I'm afraid that it's not currently possible to a choose if a Header/Footer is applied to pages on a per-export basis; if a Footer is enabled, it'll appear on the PDF Export. There is a Feature Request to bring in the ability to ad-hoc enable and change the Header/Footer based on the requirements of the export: <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-16025>

Regarding Headers/Footers on Word Docs, this is not currently possible in the Cloud Environment and there is a Feature Request to bring in Headers/Footers to Word Exports as well: [https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-41346](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-41346?)

If you're using the Server version of Confluence, you could [modify the templates](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=202780) used for Exports to include a Header/Footer.
