My colleagues are not able to "view" my articles
Asked by Shalini Khandelia:

I created, edited and published a few articles. But the users within my organization are not able to VIEW. I create knowledge articles for my site and want them (my colleagues) to VIEW the pages. I checked necessary restrictions and permission but still not able to figure out the issue.

After connecting with one of the confluence persons I got to know that they need licenses. I am not sure how licences play the role when we are working for the same organization having same access rights.

I am able to VIEW, my internal team can VIEW too then why cant our stakeholders (working in the same organization)? Help!

Link a slide from sharepoint deck
Asked by Phani:

I have a deck uploaded on my enterprise sharepoint. I am in the process of creating a confluence page. I want to link to a single slide in the above deck. Is it possible? I want to ensure the conf page has the latest slide so don't want to insert it as an image. Any help appreciated. Thanks!


Answers:
author: JimmyVanAU
body: Hi Phani,

Welcome to the community. From a little searching, it appears this is possible.

Confluence simply points to an external site, and it is up to the link/Sharepoint to direct the user. The steps should be:

1. Open your Powerpoint in Sharepoint.
2. Open up the context (...) menu.
3. Navigate to the appropriate slide in the preview.
4. Click the Open in New Windows icon.
5. Go to your browser location bar, and copy the very long address.
6. Double check it has a "\&wdSlideID=######" snippet in the address.
7. Use this link in your Confluence page.

I don't have a Sharepoint instance to test this on, but this looks to be the case from:

<http://lmunck.com/2014/06/embed-specific-powerpoint-slide-in-sharepoint-2013-page/>

and <https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/73239/link-to-specific-powerpoint-slide-in-a-library>

I hope it still works with newer releases of Sharepoint.

Search within a page from page tree
Asked by Josh:

I know it is possible to search with a specific space on Confluence, but is it possible to search within a specific page from the page tree in that spaces?

For example, I click the spaces drop down and choose the space I want to search in,

Then, I have the page tree on the left hand side with 10 or more different categories, is it possible to search within one of these categories?

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Jim Schwilk
body: Hello Josh. Are you trying to search the page that is displayed at the time or across all pages within that parent?

If only on that page, you can use the built in browser search, if not at least in the server version when you click search, you can select the space and page from the filter and then search from there.

Hope that helps.

comments: author: Josh
body: Hi Jim,

Thank you for getting back to me,

I have just realised I can get that page option so that helps narrow my search further so thank you for that

Is there a way to select the specific parent page and search just within that one Catagory?


author: Josh
body: It may help if i post an example, I would like to only search in the "Catalogiong" section of the page tree

author: Jim Schwilk
body: Not that I can see, even looking into the advanced search I don't see a way.


author: Josh
body: Hi Jim,

Just in case you were wondering I figured out how to do this.

Click Advanced Search, then click "Add a Filter" then click "With Parent"

This allows you to do a search within a parent page and all of its child pages, or if you want a narrower search you can type in a more specific child page


author: Eric P
body: I was looking for this feature to go down the tree but the filter "With Parent" is only good for direct pages under the parent not as recursive mode search.


author: Mike
body: By using "With Ancestor", you can get the recursive mode search, so all direct and indirect child pages will be searched.
Confluence Cloud - page template with dates listed in the future

N days ahead?


Answers:
author: Alex Koxaras _Relational_
body: Hi [@Edward Fleming](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1775599)

Out of the box, I don't know any way of achieving this. Even variables on templates only accept, single select, text and multi text field. No dates. What exactly is your goal, and where do you want to place this date?

Perhaps the only way to achieve this is to use Jira automation and add smart values on the page title, like e.g {{now.plusDays(2)}}

How make graphic links in wiki?
Asked by Michael:

I created buttons using PowerPoint and copied them into a wiki. Then I made them links to other pages in the wiki. I created navigation on the various pages using this linking. The links don't always stay intact, or they somehow end up linking to the wrong page. I have to re-link frequently. Suggestions on preventing this? Thanks.


Answers:
author: Fabian Lim
body: Hi [@Michael](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3838721)

One options could be to have an image (png) and upload it to your page instead of copying and pasting it.

Then click on the image and you can add a link to whatever website you need to go. When users click the image, they get redirected.

External link open in new window - (Confluence cloud)

I read the suggestion that was posted in 2018. It still seems that "open in new tab" is still not available for Confluence Cloud. Am I wrong?


Answers:
author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@Rob Hilsky](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3838912)

If you're referring to [CONFCLOUD-11194](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-11194) it's not available and closed as "Won't Fix"

The workaround is to use Ctrl + Click / Cmnd + Click when opening a link or use a browser add-on or similar.

You could also check-out [Linking for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/166/linking-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) - this was suggested on CONFCLOUD-11194 but wasn't available on Cloud at the time (it is now).

Can I not put iframe videos inside of "expand" macros anymore?

Watch [CONFCLOUD-68323](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-68323) to see how this progresses over time.

If you can revert to the old editor, you'll be able to continue nesting macros.

author: Michael Thomas

It seems they are gathering interest. Well, we're interested Atlassian! Bring it back!

Anchor text in Table of Contents Macro

I'm not sure what you mean - can you clarify?

Anchors in Confluence Cloud (in the new editor) refer to headers - and the Table of Contents refers to headers in its summarised list.

Is this what you're trying to achieve? Or something else? Are you on the new or legacy editor?

JIRA issue/filter macro in confluence is not working with JIRA Cloud.
Asked by Deepak Nagaraj:

I am trying to display the results of a filter from JIRA cloud in Confluence.

But the JIRA issue/filter macro in confluence is not working with JIRA Cloud.

Any alternative?


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello [@Deepak Nagaraj](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3835029),

Welcome to Atlassian Community! It's nice to have you join us.

From what I understand, you have a Confluence Server site, which you have connected to a Jira Cloud site. Right now, you're trying to use the Jira Issues Macro to display filter results in Confluence Server. Is that right?

Could you let me know what your Confluence Server version is?

Secondly, has this integration worked in the past, or is it a recent setup? Can you let me know the steps you took to integrate the two?

When integrating Cloud and Server, you'll want to make sure that you start the integration from the Cloud site. In addition, the Server site has to be accessible from a standard port (i.e. 80, 443). See [Link to Server Products from Cloud](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/link-to-server-products-from-cloud-744721656.html) for the full set of requirements. You may want to remove the integration, and attempt it again, making sure to use the recommended order.

If you continue to have issues, it will help to know what error messages you see when you attempt to retrieve the filter results. If you check the Confluence Server logs, you may be able to find more details on that. If you'er not sure where to find those logs, you can locate them using our [Working with Confluence Logs](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/working-with-confluence-logs-108364721.html) documentation.

For an approval process, you need an extra app. One possible solution to your problem could be our app Comala Document Approval from the Comala Document Management family of apps. You can find it on the Atlassian marketplace.

The Confluence version number changes on page edits. Changing a version number on approval is an interesting use case so I'll look in to it!
