Deleted or renamed attachments still appear in content tools
Asked by Lisa Perkins:

I renamed all three attachments to my page entitled "Opening the Sales Activity Module and Logging In."

attachments.bmp

But, when I go to Space Tools \> Content Tools \> Attachments, an image still appears in the list with its auto-generated name "image2015-7-14 15:0:32.png" and an indication that it's attached to the "Opening the Sales Activity Module and Logging In" page.

space-tools.bmp

And, when I click the image link, I get a Page Not Found

page-not-found.bmp

Is there any way to clean this up, so that when I go to the Attachments list, only current attachments show up?

author: Phillis Novara
body: Hi Rodrigo,

thanks for your feedback I was looking exactly for site statistics but for the Confluence Cloud version.

On the suggested [site statistics](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Viewing+Site+Statistics) documentation I sow the warning *"The information on this page [does not apply](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=253231680) to Confluence Cloud."*

I will be waiting for the Dev improvement than.

Do you mean something like [site statistics](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Viewing+Site+Statistics) or or [managing your filters](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Using+Filters#UsingFilters-managing_filtersManagingyourexistingfilters) ?

As far a sI know, there's already this improvement to Confluence Dev regarding activity pluging, maybe you wanna add yourself into watchers:

How do I revert to a previous version of composition plugin
Asked by Theresa Adams:

Help! I was updating all of our plugins to current versions and I clicked without reading about the additional charge for the latest update to the Composition Macro. (I know it said something about it on the button, but I was updating about 25 plugins and I got carried away with the clicking) I got the temp evaluation license, but since I didn't go through the whole budget process - and our renewal is October so we'll wait until then to incur new charges, I think I need to revert to the previous version?

It does seem unreasonable that I purchased this macro last year and am being charged extra to update it. It also should not just update without saying something like....'are you sure' since this macro requires a new license and everything.


Answers:
author: Theresa Adams
body: Hi all, I wanted to reply to my own rant above. I contacted Service Rocket and they were very helpful with the answer. It turns out, the wording "Paid Upgrade" doesn't mean I have to pay again. All I had to do was go back to my.atlassian.com, grab my licence key again, paste it in the licence field, and all was well. I did not need the evaluation license, and I did not need to revert.

Thanks though, for the info on reverting.


author: lavitz slambert
body: To revert the plugin to a previous version, uninstall the composition plugin, go to below page and choose the previous version you used:

<https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/net.customware.confluence.plugin.composition/versions>

[](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/net.customware.confluence.plugin.composition/versions)Update that jar file and re add your license. As far as I'm aware that should do the trick. Also no data should be lost during this process but if you want to make sure you will not hit into any problems, just make a database backup before doing the above :smile:.  
Good luck.

How to change appearance of unresolved links?
Asked by Hans-Peter Geier:

Confluence up to 3.5 did visualize links which the user did not have access permissions. (red)

Since Confluence 4, this feature does not exist anymore out of the box.

In Confluence 4 and 5 (currently we are on 5.4.4) , I brought back this lacking feature by an Custom CSS entry like this:

```
.wiki-content a.unresolved {  (definitions)}
```

In Confluence 5.8, these links do not have 'class="unresolved" ' anymore, so this style sheet definition doesn't work anymore. Looking at the FF developer/inspector, these links do not have a special class anymore which I could use in the same way as shown above.

Is there another way to achieve the same result in 5.8 ?


Answers:
author: Hans-Peter Geier
body: There is now a request in JIRA to bring back the functionality (class a.unresolved), so we can again highlight such unaccessible links in a different way than normal links. Currently, in 5.8 the user will see a "Page not found" error instead of reasonable information. I consider this behavior unfriendly to the users, and also I name it a bug, as there was no communication that Atlassian would change the behavior.

The ticket is

<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-39035>

Feel invited to vote.

What should I do to change the color of th face of day-rating of the diaries?
Asked by Kentaro Iida:

Hello.

Is there any way to change the color of the face image or the face image of day-rating of the projectdoc Developer Diaries?

I can choose 1 of 11 phases from zero-unrated to 10-perfect by Day-Rating macro. However, I want to change the color of the face because all of them are the same colors. Is there the method to change the color of the face or to replace a face image?


Answers:
author: Robert Reiner _smartics_
body: There is no configuration option to replace the icons within the plugin.

There are a number of workarounds, though. Here are three:

#### #1 Fork {#toc-hId-1309829404}

You may [fork the add-on project on Bitbucket](https://bitbucket.org/smartics-de/smartics-projectdoc-confluence-space-devdiary) (all our [free doctype add-ons are available on Bitbucket](https://bitbucket.org/smartics-de)), make your adjustments and create your own version of the plugin. This may be a valid step if there is a need to adjust other parts of the add-on as well (e.g. if you want to make changes to the templates, wizards, etc.). The code of the add-on is open source (APL 2).

#### #2 Fiddle with the JAR {#toc-hId--1242327557}

The second option and easiest approach would be to exchange the images in the JAR. This approach would not demand development skills. But this is certainly a hack.

#### #3 Use CSS (recommended) {#toc-hId-500482778}

Third, you could use CSS to exchange the images. You would - for instance - attach your images to a Confluence page and adjust you Confluence CSS accordingly. This would be the recommended approach, but probably requires some CSS 3 features and you may have to test the results in the relevant browsers (and versions).

The code would look something like this (works in Chrome, but not yet in Firefox or IE, not tested in other browsers):

```
img.projectdoc-devdiary-rating[alt="10"] {    content: url("/confluence/download/attachments/123456/myicon.png") !important;    background-image: none;  }  #property-panel a.aui-button.macro-property-panel-projectdoc-10-perfect span.icon {    content: url("/confluence/download/attachments/123456/myicon.png") !important;    background-image: none;  }  img.editor-inline-macro[data-macro-parameters="value=10-perfect"] {    content: url("/confluence/download/attachments/123456/myicon.png") !important;  }
```

It shows the adjustments for the three locations: view, editor and selection box for the image 10. You'll have to adjust the URL to your image (and add this set of CSS statements for each image you want to replace).

If you are interested we may share our solution (once we have it :smile:).
(comala workflows) Is it possible to set a page property as a required field for a state transition?
Asked by Bettina H?bner:

Hi,

my question is about Comala Workflows. We have a page template including a table for some page properties. The user should fill in all values before the page can be approved. Is it possible to set the page properties as mandatory fields?

Thanks in advance,

Bettina


Answers:
author: Miguel Reimer
body: Hi Bettina,

As William suggested(thanks William!), we can provide the best support through our support portal as depending on the tags used we don't always see questions posted on Answers.

That said, something like this should do the trick:

```
{approval:Approval|@PAGE PROPERTY 1@=@empty@|@PAGE PROPERTY 2@=@empty@}
```

which will keep the approval disabled(no approving/rejecting/assigning) until all the page properties are set to a non-empty value. We can also check if the pageproperty has user mentions or not with "`usersdefined`=@PAGE PROPERTY 1@, @PAGE PROPERTY 2@".

GIve that a try and let us know if that works for you.

Thanks,  
Miguel

body: Hi Team,

Can we mandatory a comment box in Comala Workflow so that approver when reject or Approve a page they won't be missed out mention the reason.

Thanks,

author: Akeles
body: I managed to get it working by setting @empty@ to a blank value

```
{set-metadata:empty}@Vorname@{set-metadata}
```

To enforce it is not empty, you need to negate it.

```
{approval:RequiredFields|@Vorname@=!@empty@|@Nachname@=!@empty@}
```

Actually the better solution will be to use [usersdefined](https://wiki.comalatech.com/display/CW/Conditions) condition

```
{approval:RequiredFields|usersdefined=@Vorname@,@Nachname@}
```


author: Bettina H?bner
body: Hi Miguel,

thank you for your help. I tried what you suggested, but unfortunately, it does not work properly.

My simple test workflow looks like this:

```
{workflow:name=SimpleWorkflow|label=simpleworkflow}  {state:Draft|approved=Finished}    {approval:RequiredFields|@Vorname@=@empty@|@Nachname@=@empty@}  {state}  {state:Finished}  {state}{workflow}
```

I have a page template with two page properties ("Vorname" and "Nachname"). When I create a new page using the template, its status is "Draft". The approval is possible and changes the status to "Finished", even though the required fields are empty.

(Confluence 5.8.6, Comala Workflows 4.8.0.)

body: Hi Naama,

*[Better Blogs for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.arijea.plugins.betterblogs)* is a paid add-on that allows Space Administrators to subscribe users and groups to email notifications of new blogs in a space.

At Twitter we needed this feature to ensure every member of our product, design and engineering organisation (\>1,500 people) were notified of new blog posts in the Engineering space. The Engineering Blog enabled VP's to communicate one-to-many and teams to share details of the technology and features they were working on. It didn't make sense to ask every new employee to subscribe to the blog in that space, hence Better Blogs was born.

With Better Blogs you can keep everyone informed, and do so with ease. For those wishing to take advantage of early bird pricing use the promotion code [HHYUWD](https://promo.atlassian.com/HHYUWD) before the end of October 2015.

Answers:
author: gustavo_refosco
body: Hi Annong,

It seems JIRA is unable to retrieve the information from Confluence, therefore it fails to identify the application and create the Application Link. This could be due to many factors, as proxy configuration, SSL, etc. As a test, I'd like to suggest you to try creating the link from JIRA to Confluence bypassing Confluence's proxy (if you have one in place) and confirm if that works. Please also perform connectivity tests, trying to reach confluence at the specified address from your JIRA server.

In addition you may use the document <https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/KB/Application+Links+Troubleshooting+Guide> as a guidance to try troubleshooting this. Please check at the section **Review your environment configuration**, as it will serve as a guide to review all the configuration you have in place for Confluence.

You can safely remove the current application link on both applications, once they are completely removed you can recreate them. The consumer key should be recreated during the new app link creation. That should do the trick!

Since recently there is a [glossary add-on](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/glossary/cloud/overview) for Confluence Cloud.

Whereas it is not a copy of the glossary add-on for confluence server, the core of the add-ons are similar. You can manage technical terms in a glossary per space. Those terms can then automatically be looked up during reading a page, and they will be displayed together with their definitions. Also you can search across all glossaries for the definition of a specific term.
