later i changed it to

chown -R confluence /opt/atlassian/confluence


author: Joachim Ooi
body: Hi Paresh,

Are you running Confluence on a Linux OS?

If yes, have you checked whether you have the write permissions to the HOME folder? The same problem could also occur if you are running Confluence as the `root` user.

If it is the latter, then try not to run Confluence as **root.**

If it is because of permission issue, ensure that the user running Confluence has **full read and write access to****the home folder** . This can be set by running `chmod -R` with the appropriate permissions, to apply them recursively to each sub folder.

comments: author: Paresh Gandhi
body: 1st time i ran confluence as root later i stopped it.

then i did start/stop using confluence user by providing

chown -R confluence /var/atlassian/  
chown -R confluence /opt/atlassian  
Do I have to run anyother permission command?

How do i hide author information in Confluence OnDemand
Asked by Charlie Murff:

We want to make one space publicly accesible but we don't want the author name listed on the pages. How can we do this with Confluence OnDemand. I've found lots of suggestions when you host it yourself, but nothing for OnDemand users.


Answers:
author: Andreas
body: I added a request for this feature a while ago: <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-30449>

comments: author: RPT Admin
body: Thank you. I added my vote.


author: James Dellow
body: Depending on the configuration of your public space and pages, you could try using the CSS macro to hide the author's name. You'll need to find the right CSS element to hide. This needs to be applied on a page by page basis and note that it wouldn't actually remove the name, just obscure it from the average person viewing the page.


author: RPT Admin
body: You can make the user name and display name anonymous.

So if you have a user called Wyatt Noone, typically you might give them the login name wyattn (or something similar) and the display name Wyatt Noone. Unfortunately, this "outs" Wyatt as the author of all the content that they have created.

So instead of that, you create the user Wyatt Noone with the username and display name Editor21. Result: anyone who is not logged in to Confluence will only see that the page was created by Editor 21. Wyatt is anonymous.

At the same time, anyone who is logged in to Confluence can hover over "Editor 21" and Wyatt's email address will appear in a pop-up window. Assuming Wyatt's email address is [wyatt.noone(at)acmetrading.com](http://wyatt.noone%28at%29acmetrading.com), logged in users will be able to identify Wyatt as the author.

Unfortunately, while Confluence OnDemand allows you to change the user's name (i.e. the display name) it doesn't allow you to change the "username" (i.e. the login name). So this may not work if you are trying to anonymise content which has already been created by existing editors.

There is an option in the Confluence administration under "user email visibility" which might also assist; mine is set to "public" -- I don't know what difference it would make if I changed the default.

comments: author: Charlie Murff
body: This seems like more of a workaround than a solution.

Can I collapse images on a page?
Asked by Jennifer Trotter:

there are several images on a parent page. I want to collapse so they are not seen by a user. Can I do that? The image macro doesn't seem to have that capability.

Can someone please comment an answer for this question? Thank you.


Answers:
author: RPT Admin
body: If you put images inside the "expand" macro, they won't be displayed on the page until the user chooses to expand the hidden page elements.

comments: author: Jennifer Trotter
body: There are a ton of them. I don't want to have to remove them from where they are and then put them back in under another macro...a lot of work there.


author: Michelle Vincent
body: I'm trying to use images as the title for an expand so that when a user clicks on the image, it expands with more information. I tried using the Source Editor to replace the title of the expand with the image but that didn't work. Any ideas?

comments: author: Eliot Cole
body: I'm also really wanting to do this, hoping that someone finds a way.


author: Davin Studer
body: If you want to easily put expand macros around each you can use the [Confluence Source Editor](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.editor.confluence-source-editor) to do this. It has find a replace capability. So you would do two find and replaces. They would look like this ...

**First Find and Replace** Find: \<ac:image\>  
Replace: \<ac:structured-macro ac:name="expand"\>\<ac:rich-text-body\>\<ac:image\>

**Second Find and Replace** Find: \</ac:image\>  
Replace: \</ac:image\>\</ac:rich-text-body\>\</ac:structured-macro\>

This will put an expand macro around each image allowing you to individually expand or collapse them. Depending upon how many images you have on your page this could be client browser intensive.


author: Jennifer Trotter
body: all users is what I meant.


author: Ale? La?ar
body: Jo Jennifer,

If you want to hide it, you can stylized them via CSS and display:none;

If you want to set, who can see it, you can use hide macro from ServiceRocket :) [](https://docs.servicerocket.com/display/VIS/hide-if)<https://docs.servicerocket.com/display/VIS/hide-if>

comments: author: Jennifer Trotter
body: when you say stylize them via CSS and display:none, can you elaborate? Or give me the step by step process to do that? Thank you.


author: Ale? La?ar
body: On space, where you want to hide something go to space tools and there find Look and there Stylesheet. There you can edit CSS. So if you want to disable images, you have to know what type. You can use Developer tool, in Chrome, right click on image and show code (check element)... Here you will see HTML tags for it and some class or id, for that you can write css and hide it :) For more info how using css read this web pages <http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp>

how to remove the editing toolbar from all pages
Asked by Maddy Knuth:

I'd like to remove the editing toolbar that appears when you edit a wiki page. Is that possible?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: A lot of people find the toolbar useful, so I'm not sure why you'd want to do this.

However, if you look to the top left of the edit area, there's a button for toggling the stuff surrounding the main edit box, that hides and shows the toolbar. Would that be good enough for your users? You do get a lot more editing space when you use it!

comments: author: Maddy Knuth
body: We don't want users to create extra styles by using the buttons on the toolbar. We want them to use the styles we're creating.

I don't see a toggle button, unless you mean the one that removes the header? This is what I see:

![](../../upfiles/wiki_2.png)


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Yes, the little two-up-arrows next to the magnifying glass is what I was talking about.

I'm not sure what you mean by "extra styles" - all the toolbar has is standard text editing stuff for laying out and formatting text and access to macros. What do you mean by "style"?


author: Maddy Knuth
body: I've styled our wiki using a stylesheet (CSS), and we only want users to use those styles. When you apply formatting from the toolbar, it formats the text without using those styles. So we were thinking of removing the toolbar. I thought you could do that by editing the layout, but I can't figure out which element in the layout to remove.


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Not really, it's an integral part of the editor, you'd need to hack the core editor code to remove it.

Furthermore, it's pointless. The toolbar is a convenience, but you can enter formatting without using it at all.

I think you need to deal with all their formatting in your css.

PDF Export TOC pagenumber not visible
Asked by Reto Eggenberger:

Hi all,

I have customized our PDF export stylesheet. Changed the pagesize, margins and font. If I export the whole space, the table of contents is displayed, but the pagenumbers are not visibile. They seem to be outside the page ...

I couldn't find the part in die standerd CSS, where I can change the position of the pagenumbers in the toc.

Where could I do this?

Here is my actual CSS:

```
@page{size: 210mm 297mm;margin: 1.5cm 1cm 1.5cm 1cm;background-image: url(/download/attachments/1933903/footer_btvv_A4hoch.png);background-repeat: no-repeat;background-position: 50% 97%;}.fsTitlePage{margin-left: auto;margin-top: 50mm;margin-right: auto;page-break-after:always} .fsTitle{font-size: 42px;font-weight: bold;margin: 72px 0 4px 0;text-align:center;}table{table-layout: auto !important;width: 100% !important;} th.confluenceTh{color: #000000;background-color: #f0f0f0;} body{margin: 0;padding: 0;font-family: Garamond, serif;} body,p,li,td,table,tr,.bodytext,.stepfield{font-size: 10pt;} h1{font-size: 26px;margin: 36px 0px 30px 0px;} h3{page-break-after: avoid;} .panel{border-color:#000000;background:#FFFFFF none repeat scroll 0 0;padding:10px 10px 15px 10px;margin:15px 0px;} .panelContent{background:#FFFFFF none repeat scroll 0 0;}

I don't have the option to upload an add-on
Asked by Dan Harel:

I wrote a Confluence plugin earlier today. When I test it locally using atlas-run, it works fine. So I packaged it, and now I want to upload it so that I can actually test it on my actual site. However, I don't have the option to upload one.

When I go to the "Manage add-ons" page, this is what I see: [](http://i.imgur.com/91ou4rq.png)<http://i.imgur.com/91ou4rq.png>

Note the lack of any option to upload my own.

Would anybody happen to know what the problem is?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: You cannot upload addons in OnDemand. It's a restricted function, as Atlassian OnDemand can only support a range of approved addons.

You can upload "connect" plugins, but not the older "version 2" stuff, unless it's on the list of things they can support.

comments: author: Dan Harel
body: Wow. Okay, thanks for the heads up!

So how would I go about testing my add-on?

Edit: Nevermind! I was able to test it via a different local project. For some reason I was getting an error before, but it's gone now. Thanks for the help!


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Run it in a Downloaded version of Confluence. The plugin development kit allows you to spin up test systems quite quickly, so start there.

How do I delete ONLY a child page?
Asked by Tom Regner:

I can find nothing about deleting unwanted child pages in the documentation. How is it done?


Answers:
author: Davin Studer
body: Go to the page you want to delete and in the tools menu at the bottom should be the delete item. This is a permission that must be granted to the user/group, so if you don't see the option then you do not have delete permissions.

![](../../upfiles/Capture_228.PNG)

comments: author: Davin Studer
body: Is this what you were lookng for?


author: Tom Regner
body: Yes, that seems to be the case. I don't get a "Delete" option, but I do get a "Remove" option (perhaps the difference in the browser interface, or perhaps because I'm on a Mac). But that works on pages that I own. It seems a little odd that I would have write permissions and can ADD a page (even by mistake), but then cannot remove it once I discover the error. Thanks for the information, Davin!


author: Davin Studer
body: Yeah, add and delete permissions are separate in Confluence you can have one without the other. As far as it saying remove that should be the same thing. I think that is what it used to be called in previous versions. Feel free to mark the question as answered if this meets your needs. :)

confluence 3.4.9 running on 32 bits or 64 bits?
Asked by Ping Xiao:

Hello,

We have Confluence 3.4.9 (confluence-3.4.9-std.tar.gz) running on Solaris 10. I'd like to know if it is 32 bits or 64 bits.

if it is 32 bits, could we change setting to increase it to 64 bits so to allow us to increase jvm memory size?

thanks

Ping


Answers:
author: Bruna Griebeler
body: Hi there,

If you're on a 64bit Operating System and have a 64bit Java, you should be enable to increase the Java Memory already.

On your Confluence logs you'll be able to check the JVM configuration. Take a look there to make sure that you're running a JDK or JRE 1.6.0_4+ 64 bits.

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONF34/Supported+Platforms>

In case you're running 32 bits for all (Tomcat, JDK, etc) , a good approach is to generate a XML backup and import it back in a brand new Confluence (same version as the old one).


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: The system information page should tell you that.

If it is 32 bit, then yes, you can change it to 64, but you probably want to re-install a new copy (and point it at your current data - the database won't care if you update to 64 bit)

How to set category as a site homepage? - via Tomcat welcome file?
Asked by Ale? La?ar:

Hi there.

I have a category and i need to set it as site homepage. In admin is setting just for spaces, but i need a category. So the homepage should be exmapleconfluencesite.com/category/inet. Can anybody help me?

If somebody could help me to set it via tomcat, it will be great! :smile:

Many thanks!

Ale?


Answers:
author: Dennis Andersen
body: Hi Ale?,

Unfortunately you cannot set a category as a homepage. As you've already stated, the Confluence admin setting only allow for spaces to be specified as a homepage. A workaround could be to specify a space homepage, and from there use a redirection macro to forward the user to your desired category url. This way you could have a category as a homepage, event if it's in two steps.

Cheers,

Dennis

comments: author: Ale? La?ar
body: Hi Dennis,

That is sad :( Because category is homepage of intranet. And I cant have a blank redirecting space. What do you think, is it possible to set it in DB somewhere?

Thank you for advice :)
