Is there a way to see your pages based on number of views, to find which pages are most used?
Asked by Dora_Kibbee:

I'm trying to figure out what the top used pages are within my organization.


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Dora,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you!

It's not possible to sort your pages based on most viewed, or to see the most popular pages. There's a feature request below that would allow for a macro to display this information, so I would recommend voting for it if it's something like you'd like to say:

* [CONFCLOUD-55097](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-55097) *Macro to view most viewed page*

With [Confluence Cloud Premium](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/confluence-cloud-plans-972334171.html), you get access to [Confluence Analytics](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/analytics-972332388.htmlq) which can help give you more insight into your page views. This won't allow you to view the top most viewed pages, but it might be another solution if you want to share that with your administrators.

Let me know if you have any questions about that!

Regards,

Shannon

Receiving two different error messages, possibly due to expand macro
Asked by Emily Tivnan:

Within the last week I have received two different error messages for published pages that have been edited to include expand macros. When I click on the "[Macro Toolbox for Cloud](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215202/macro-toolbox-html-tabs-expand/version-history)" link I am brought to an Atlassian Marketplace page, which outlines version updates for HTML, Tabs, and Expand. When I then click "[Manually install it in your server instance](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/UPM/Installing+add-ons#Installingadd-ons-Installingbyfileupload)" I am then brought to an "Installing Add-ons" page, which displays an error which reads "Page Not Found".

Below are images of the two errors received when adding the expand macro.

As I understand, we are having problems with the Expand Macro and the Macro Toolbox for Cloud.

The first error, regarding the Macro Toolbox for Cloud. ++*This macro has been removed from our Marketplace due to some business decisions. However, Atlassian chose not to remove the plugin from customers' instances that still had it installed*++. We have also procured GoodSoftware regarding this plugin.

If you need HTML solutions for the cloud, I can suggest for you to look into our marketplace for an alternative:

The "unsupported content" issue has shown up on my radar earlier this week. We can go ahead and take a look into this another thread that I replied to:

How to embed a confluence page on a webpage?
Asked by Adam:

I'd like embed a confluence cloud page on to an external website - is this a possibility?


Answers:
author: Daniel Ebers
body: Hi Adam,

I came across this question every now and then [here in community](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/How-to-embed-Confluence-pages-in-other-websites/qaq-p/951511) but there is no real solution. There are some hints in the post beforementioned but no good and easy way to do it.

The basic restrictions are mentioned in [knowledge base](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-page-does-not-display-in-an-iframe-827335781.html) but only for on-prem hosting, not for cloud.

Maybe you can write an [own script which accesses Confluence via REST API](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/getting-started/) to gather the desired data and put it to a website - would be an extra step but could work.

Cheers,

Confluence problem after Oracle19c upgrade?
Asked by Torsten Fassian:

Hi,

I have upgraded the database of Jira and Confluence to Oracle 19c today.

Jira has no problems.

But Confluence (6.15.6) gives the following errors in the log:

However Confluence seems to work from an enduser point of view. But I suspect there is something in the background not quite working the way it should.

I found something about this dialect problem here:

I need assistance in migrating our Confluence from server to the cloud
Asked by Mireille Gennaro:

Can someone from Atlassian walk me through the process of how we would migrate Confluence from the server to the cloud?


Answers:
author: Petter Gon?alves
body: Hello [@Mireille Gennaro](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/557003)

Thank you for reaching out.

You can check on the documentation below how to migrate your Confluence Server to Cloud together with all the steps that should be considered before the migration:

[Confluence server to cloud migration resources](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence-server-to-cloud-migration-resources-972330178.html)

Once you have checked all the pre-migration details (Third-part Apps integration, updated Confluence to the last version available, etc), you can use the free app [Confluence Cloud Migration Assistant](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1219672/confluence-cloud-migration-assistant) to easily move content, users, and groups from your Confluence Server to your Confluence Cloud site.

P.S: I suggest you to first run [your migration in a test environment](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/test-your-server-to-cloud-migration-973495105.html) to make sure it worked as you expected without missing any of the pre-migration steps.

If you have any questions about the steps provided, please let us know.

Two apps on the Atlassian Marketplace provide Font Awesome icons:

* [Font Icons for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215716/font-icons-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview) by MOEWE

I'm thinking you might be referring to the first "Awesome Icons" app, but want to confirm that with you. If so, I'll add an extra tag to this question to raise the possibility that someone from Rumpelcoders will see it.

You can also contact Rumpelcoders [by sending them an email](mailto:office@rumpelcoders.at).

Do I really need to reboot Confluence when rebuilding the site Index?
Asked by Martin James:

A user profile can't be found on our Confluence even though their account is still active.

A simple rebuild of the site index will quickly fix this problem.

Do I really need to reboot Confluence to do this?

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/how-to-rebuild-the-content-indexes-from-scratch-on-confluence-server-110035351.html>

Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: If you are just rebuilding from the UI, then no.

However, if you are (as in the article) you are dropping out to the command line and removing files, then yes, as Confluence will hold some of the index files open so you can't delete them and it'll lose references to them. You need to restart to allow it to create the new empty indices so it can populate them when you reindex.
How can i modify the length of the columns in layouts?
Asked by edward.vella:

I'm trying to adjust the layout of the columns but there's only the predetermined lengths and that's it.


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello [@edward.vella](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3823382) !

The width and quantity settings for the layouts are five pre-defined positions:

> * *Two columns -- each 50% os page space (approximately)*
> * *Three columns -- each 33% of page space (approximately)*
> * *Two columns -- one with 67% and one as 33% on the right side (approximately)*
> * *Two columns -- one with 67% and one as 33% on the left side (approximately)*
> * *Three columns -- One with 50% and the two others with 25% on each side (approximately)*

Those proportions refer to the column width, not height.

++*There is currently no setting to specifically set a specific height to the columns.*++ What we can do to work around this is to insert white spaces in the column itself. Using either Enter or Space should work for this purpose.

An example:
> 1. *Create a new page*
> 2. *Insert the two columns layout*
> 3. *Select the empty space in either column*
> 4. *Press the enter key until the desired height is achieved*

Here is a little more information on the Layout feature for Confluence Cloud:

How to send automatic e-mail when file attached?

Answers:

body: Hi [@Eric Cho](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3822567)

You can't do that out of the box. There isn't any automation to use (on a premium plan) to check if someone uploads an attachment. Perhaps Scriptrunner could do that trick for you, but then again I'm not so sure.

comments: author: Jessie Wang_ScriptRunner_The Adaptavist Group
body: Hi [@Eric Cho](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3822567) [@Alex Koxaras _Relational_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4150197) in ScriptRunner for Confluence we have a feature called [Listeners](https://docs.adaptavist.com/sr4cc/latest/features/script-listeners) which allows you to create custom automations triggered by Confluence events.

In Confluence, there is an attachment created event available to act as trigger, however there is no way to send a notification as Atlassian doesn't provide an API in Confluence cloud to send a notification. So due to the API limitations, the use case you request above is not possible.

As a workaround, perhaps you can add the users to the page as watchers so they get notified when it is updated? You can do this by script using the Add Content Watchers API documented here: <https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/api-group-content-watches/#api-wiki-rest-api-user-watch-content-contentid-post>

Note that the watchers will also get notified of other updates to the page like comments etc.

Hope that helps!

Confluence Cloud for Slack no option for space integration in settings
Asked by Sly Stafford:

I am trying to connect Slack and Confluence. By going to space settings I do not see an option for slack integration. I am the admin for both Slack and the space. The add-in is also recognized in Slack. I have tried to follow the recomended documentation for this but still do not see the option. The Jira version of the add-on integrated just fine.

Any guidance is appreciated.


Answers:
author: Daniel Eads
body: Hey Sly, welcome to the Community!

In Confluence, the option should be under the **Integrations** tab, then **Slack Notifications**:

![image.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/87662i29FAB85873679EDF/image-dimensions/613x211?v=v2 "image.png")

If you're finding this option isn't available, it's possible that the app is disabled in your Confluence site. To correct that, you'll need to get to the app configuration page. There's two different ways to get there:

1. Modify the following URL to reflect your Atlassian Cloud site - [https://\<yoursite\>.atlassian.net/wiki/plugins/servlet/ac/confluence-chats-integration/addon-config-page](https://<yoursite>.atlassian.net/wiki/plugins/servlet/ac/confluence-chats-integration/addon-config-page) (or clear out everything after atlassian.net on your site and add /wiki/plugins/servlet/ac/confluence-chats-integration/addon-config-page )
2. Manually get there by following this path through the user interface:
   1. Go to the **Manage Apps** page in Confluence Administration
   2. Change the dropdown next to the search box from "User-installed" to "System"
   3. Filter for "Slack"
   4. Click the entry for "Slack Notifications" to expand the app
   5. Click the "Configure" button in the expanded app information

Either way you get there, the configuration page has a big toggle to turn the integration on/off for your entire Confluence site:

![image.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/87664i81877D716CA709EB/image-dimensions/770x178?v=v2 "image.png")

Once the integration is toggled to enabled, you should see it in your space settings under the Integrations tab.

Cheers,  
Daniel \| Atlassian Support

comments: author: Sly Stafford
body: Daniel,

Thanks for the information. Unfortunately when I go to "Manage Apps" nothing comes up for Slack. I did notice that when I installed it did not do it through the UPM and installed through Slack instead, so don't know if I missed something there.
