Confiform conditional dependencies
Asked by che mo:

First of all execuse me if this is a stupid question. I was searching for the solution but couldn't find any so I'm writting my problem or idea here.

I'm new to confluence and I'm trying my first steps and I have also some ideas which I think should be possible to do, but I couldn't find a solution and I hope you guys can help me out.

I have a Confiform project defined with my Confiform field definitions. And if registration is completed, or the values are typed in, the Confiform fields are diplayed in another site in a Confiform TableView. So far so good.

Now here my idea:

I wanted to create another columnin the TableView which have Checkbox. This should give me the oportunity to select multiple rows. After I have selected the rows and apply my changes in another column called Status the status should be changed to selected.

My idea afterwords would be to filter the entries by the status and write an email, selcted from the row email, and send it with outlook. If this is not possible i would like to export just the row email, from the selected entries in a csv.

Thanks for your support and I hope I could write my idea clearly :)

The functionality you have in mind is not in ConfiForms, however, you can try to set up "Action button" field or fields to help you with quick actions that you can define on your data rows

We have few examples in our wiki, <https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/TEST/Send+email+when+action+button+is+clicked> gives a good overview on what to expect

thanks for your quick response! But there I only see an entry concerning "Whiteboards", but not for "Databases".

Beste regards,

In that case, you should contact Atlassian to enable the beta feature for you since you received this email. I've encountered this as well, and they have solved it.

Export PDF oversizes gliffy / mermaid graphics and cut them off
Asked by stuart_plummer:

Hi,

See a few screen show below but exporting as PDF is oversizing graphics from both gliffy and mermaid - and subsequently cutting them off so unreadable or usable. If I use Word Export the mermaid diagrams dont export.

Below are two screen shots of gliffy and mermaid as displayed on the screen - everything looks good here.

![onScreen-gliffyExample.jpg](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/301175iF0BA5A64FCC42CFD/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "onScreen-gliffyExample.jpg")![onScreen-MermaidExample.jpg](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/301174iAC3EA6F512B7F856/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "onScreen-MermaidExample.jpg")

Once I perform a PDF export I get this. As you can see everything is oversized etc. Funny thing is I have an export from a year ago and everything is scaled properly.

Hope that helps.

comments: author: Samie Kaufman - Your Gal at Gliffy
body: Hi Stuart! I think Dan provided a great answer above. However, I would also encourage you to open a support ticket with our team at support@gliffy.com. Sometimes these are Gliffy-side issues and sometimes they're Atlassian-side issues.

Because our mermaid feature is quite new, I want to make sure we have a very close eye on any issues our users are experiencing. :)

Thanks!

How can I get the daily digest email without all the emails about real-time changes?
Asked by Alexandra Luca:

It's been a few months of Confluence Daily Digest. My understanding was that this feature was introduced as replacement for the previous daily email in order to reduce the number of emails we would receive. I'm now wondering if I'm doing something wrong, because I'm getting 10 times more emails than before.

In the previous setup, all I had to do was ask for a daily email of updates from all the spaces that I had access to. I did not watch most of them. I got an email that included things I wasn't interested in, but I could easily skip those lines because it was all organized by spaces.

In this new system, I would only get the daily digest for spaces that I am watching. Therefore I went and watched all the spaces I really cared about. I do get a daily email with those changes, but I also get an email *every time* some makes a change or adds a comment on any page in that space.

Does this new system consider a way to separate "watching spaces" (for the daily email) from "watching pages" (for the small number of pages where every change actually interests me in real time)?

Password reset for an user account as an administrator
Asked by Naramsin Garbou:

Hello,

is it possible to reset the user password logged in within the administrator menu?  

If the user "password reset" function ain't working in specific cases, we have to delete the user each time ...

<br />

Thanks in Advance


Answers:
author: Nikola Perisic
body: Welcome to the Atlassian community [@Naramsin Garbou](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5408559) !

When you select the user from "Show details" option there are three dots that when you click them there is an option "Prompt for password" reset. This is for the unmanaged account.

If the account is however managed - you can see this in admin.atlassian.com and selecting your organization then Managed accounts, select the user that you want to change the password and click on "Reset password"

If nothing works, user can change their password from the Atlassian side by clicking on Forgot your password option.

Br,

Nikola

If someone is assuming a user and does something bad, does the logs show it to be the real person or
Asked by Alana Mcpake:

If someone is assuming a user and does something bad, does the logs show it to be the real person or the assumed user?What sort of logging is available?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

The history records the action as the user that was logged in, so yes, a bad admin could do bad things that look like an innocent user did it.

I believe the audit log records "admin logged in as X" though.


author: Craig Nodwell
body: Hi [@Alana Mcpake](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5408531) welcome to the community. You cannot prevent a bad admin from doing bad things however as mentioned there is an audit log that would reflect the admin logged in as that user.

SELECT 'Project' + " - " + COALESCE('Month', "") AS 'Project/Month', \* FROM  
(SELECT \* FROM T1  
UNION ALL CORRESPONDING  
SELECT T1.'Project', 0 as 'Done' FROM T1 GROUP BY T1.'Project')

Confluence database
Asked by Shari Fitz-Patrick:

Does anyone know if you can add a jpeg, or other graphic type into a field with the new confluence database?


Answers:
author: Daniel Siegel
body: I haven't found an image field as well. Interesting hint: If you check "Card viewer", there is a note: "Mark an image field as cover for the entries in your layout.". So, Atlassian, where is this field ;)


author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: I don't think that any of the field types available right now supports images.

You could eventually attach the images to a page and use a link to that page, because there is a field that can store page links. Or, you could attach the images to a Jira issue and link to that issue, as there is a field type to store issue links.

comments: author: Shari Fitz-Patrick
body: The reason I was looking for the image field is because in the Getting Started Guide <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/create-and-edit-databases/>

Confluence does not display correctly on phone browsers

I'm evaluating Confluence to replace Google Docs. I need it to work well on a variety of phones and tablets. I've tried a few different browsers on Android, but none of them display Confluence properly. It's not even close to usable. Is there a setting to fix this problem?

Not tested the app yet because I also need Confluence on devices that don't support the app... Like Fire tablets and Linux devices. In other words it needs to work everywhere.

How to get combine tables using confiForms TableView Merger and Dynamic sources
Asked by Trevor Winge:

I am attempting to use ConfiForms TableView Merger to aggregate all of the confiForms data across my Confluence space. I have 4 pages with ConfiForms. The ConfiForms Table view works just fine on each page and the table formats are identical across all the pages.

I am using the below search parameters in the "Dynamic Sources" area of the ConfiForms TableView Merger macro:

spacekey:SPACEKEY AND type:page AND macroName:confiF\*

The idea was to search through the whole Confluence space and any page for the confiForms macro to pull the data.
