Is it possible to download the Mercurial part of install for Sourcetree ? On our network, the installer does not manage to download the Mercurial extension while installing

Kind regards,

Now my problem is that I don't manage to display files diff :

comments: author: MarleneHoward
body: From the screenshot you provided, it looks like you're using Sourcetree as your Mercurial client, and you're trying to view the file diffs but encountering an issue.

To troubleshoot this issue, you can try the following steps:

Make sure you have the latest version of Sourcetree installed, as older versions may have bugs or issues that have been fixed in newer releases.

Check that the files you're trying to diff are actually tracked in your Mercurial repository. If the files are not tracked, Sourcetree will not be able to show diffs.

If the files are tracked, try closing and reopening Sourcetree to see if that resolves the issue.

If the issue persists, try resetting Sourcetree's settings to their defaults by going to Preferences \> Advanced \> Reset to Defaults. This will reset all settings, including any customizations you may have made, so make sure to back up any important settings before doing this.

If none of the above steps work, you can try reaching out to the Sourcetree community or support team for further assistance.

I hope this helps you resolve the issue and view your file diffs successfully!


author: heroesmith net
body: Many thanks for your help, but none of those have made the diff work

Yes I have the latest version (Windows 3.4.12), the files I want to see the diff for are tracked (see the "modify" icon above the Python file in my screenshot)

I don't have "Reset to default" in Advanced tab from Settings :

Notes :  
- It works with Git repository  
- but not with my Mercurial repository unless .hgtags file surprisingly !


author: MarleneHoward
body: Hello Julien,

Yes, it is possible to download the Mercurial extension for Sourcetree separately. You can download it from the following link:

<https://www.mercurial-scm.org/downloads/>

Once you download and install the Mercurial extension, you can restart Sourcetree and it should recognize the extension.

Alternatively, you can try downloading and installing the full version of Sourcetree offline installer from the following link, which includes both Git and Mercurial extensions:

<https://www.sourcetreeapp.com/>

Or you can download it at <https://getmodnow.com/>

I hope this helps!

Is there a way to make this window bigger by default ?
Asked by maxilapo:

Title.

The window for pushing to origin is so small. I have a 27" screen and yet, this popup is still 400x200.  

Could we have it at a bigger size or a customizable size? I want to see all the branch all the time, I don't want to have to resize or scroll!

How many integrations does Confluence have in the marketplace?
Asked by Andrew Conrad:

The Jira integrations tutorial says that Jira has "over 3,000 apps" but there isn't a similar estimate for Confluence. When you filter in the marketplace, both Jira and Confluence only show "1,000+"results. I know Jira's 3,000 number might be out of date and the number is fluid from day to day anyway with apps entering and exiting the marketplace, but is there any way to get a rough estimate without scrolling and counting for hours?  

Thanks!

Out of curiosity, why is it important? :)

I see it's over 1000 apps for Confluence Cloud, and 537 for DataCenter. There's an app for everything.... to borrow from Apple.

Jira DC gives me 954 apps, btw.

Administering Confluence
Asked by Diatta Harris:

I am the org admin and I have a Confluence space I am attempting to edit/delete yet when I attempt to delete I get the message I do not have the permissions to remove the space. What else do I need to be able to remove this space? The the person who created the space is no longer with the company.


Answers:
author: Robert DaSilva - Adaptavist
body: Hi [@Diatta Harris](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4991828) , based on some of your previous comments, it seems you do not have the proper permissions for a given Confluence space to properly delete it. Confluence has a feature that lets you recover permissions to a space that you no longer are able to access.

1. Please first log in as a Confluence Administrator and then navigate to the Global Settings page by using the cog in the top right.
2. In the left-hand navigation panel, please find Settings \> Security.
3. Select Space Permissions.
4. There should be a list of spaces here; please find the space you want to delete and click the words "Recover Permissions" on the right-hand side.

This should grant you permission to access that space. I recommend accessing the space, ensuring you have the correct Space Admin permissions, and then trying to delete it again.

Atlassian has some documentation on this feature here: <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/manage-global-permissions/#Recover-space-permissions>

comments: author: Diatta Harris
body: That DID IT!!!!! I had to make myself an admin and I removed the previous owner/creator.

Thank you so much.


author: Robert DaSilva - Adaptavist
body: [@Diatta Harris](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4991828) Happy to have helped! Glad it's working now for you.


author: Shikha Verma
body: Hi, [@Diatta Harris.](#) Please Go to the space you want to delete and check the space permissions. Verify that you have the "Admin" permission for the space, either as an individual or through a group membership. If not, add yourself or the admin group to the space permissions with **Admin** rights. Make sure you check the box for **Delete Space** under the specific space permissions and save the changes. And then Try deleting the space again.  
If the deletion still fails, check the Confluence logs for any error messages.

How can I make an embedded database entry respect the fields hidden in a view?
Asked by jon.stelman@renaissance.com:

In my database, I've created a view that displays only a small subset of fields -- let's call the view "Most Important Fields". In my Confluence page want to create an embedded database that displays a single entry from my database, but only those fields that are included in my "Most Important Fields" view.

The Embed Database modal allows me to select my database, then the view, and then a single entry. But when the Embedded Database is rendered on my page, *all*fields are displayed -- not only those in my view.

Is it possible for an Embed Database to honor the settings of a single view when displaying a single entry?![1-all-entries.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/344608iC74D5E15C7F08E51/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "1-all-entries.png")![2-view-selected.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/344609i9AC77AD77547DAB6/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "2-view-selected.png")![3-entry-selected.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/344610iA829581BEF14C6DD/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "3-entry-selected.png")![4-rendered.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/344611iB391AF3C1847FCA0/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "4-rendered.png")


Answers:
author: Sarah S Allis
body: As far as I know that's not currently possible, but this would be a fantastic feature for the database entry embeds! Being able to select specific fields to show would reduce clutter, especially when Atlassian finally gets around to offering the ability to use the entry embeds in Templates (and they really need to implement this before they can consider Databases fully functional).

comments: author: jon.stelman@renaissance.com
body: Thanks for confirming! Adding the database embed to a Template is exactly where I want to go, so yeah, I agree -- being able to add to a Template will make a huge difference here.

Integration between Atlassian and Sailpoint connector
Asked by Wanderson Marchi _Wandi_:

Hi, We integrate our Sailpoint connector with Atlassian and we using email Address to aggregate the accounts. The most of the accounts don't correlate because as we understand the e-mail address is confidential. Our service account have the permissiona as a Org Admin and Site Admin and can't see the information without the user change to "anyone" for see the e-mail. How we can work to aggregate this accounts? Have another permission to do that?


Answers:
author: Robert
body: Hi Wanderson, Welcome to the community!

It sounds like you're encountering issues due to email privacy settings. Since your service account has Org Admin and Site Admin permissions, it should have the necessary access to aggregate accounts, but privacy settings might still restrict visibility. You might want to check if there are additional permissions or settings in Atlassian that control access to email addresses. If necessary, consult with Atlassian support to explore possible configurations or exceptions for your integration.

How to filter a database view by todays date
Asked by Justin Balcombe:

I've created a simple table with dates and the names of on call people.

I can see how to filter by a specific date, but there doesn't seem to be an option to filter dynamically. For instance when I look at the data I would like to only see people on call for today's date or later, and ignore historical data.

Is there any way to tell Confluence to use the current date each time the filter is opened?


Answers:
author: Stiltsoft support
body: Hi [@Justin Balcombe](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5579829) ,

If we are talking about simple manually created Confluence tables, please define what app you are using for filtration, it is not possible in Confluence out-of-the-box.

We develop the [Table Filter, Charts \& Spreadsheets for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-charts-spreadsheets-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) app and its [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/table-filter-42239756.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro understands the "today" function.

To filter by the today's date, you can use the "today" function in the date range filter. This function returns the current date as a date value. By setting the dynamic values in the date range filter's input, the filtered results will automatically update according to today's date.

You might want to see if inserting the Page Tree macro on each page will meet your needs. You could use the Topic page as the parent page for the macro.

Database setup menu
Asked by LAL:

If I accidentally close the "Database setup" menu is there any way to open it other than having to create a new database?

It seems that there is no way to open the setup window if it is closed nor is there any ability to edit the JQL used for database setup.

Am I missing something or are databases really that restricted?

Search for a combination of labels
Asked by roy.wismann:

Hi all together,

perhaps an easy task, but I can't get it right...

I am looking for a way to search for confluence pages with defines labels in combination.

For example I want to find all pages that are labelled with "car" and "tires".

Which means ++both labels need to be used on these pages++.

I tried to search for

* labelText:"car" AND labelText:"tires"
* labelText:"car" + labelText:"tires"
* labelText:"car" AND "tires"
* labelText:("car" AND "tires")

<br />

What i get so far is all pages that are labelled with "car" ++and++ all pages, that are labelled with "tires", but not only the pages, that are labelled with both "car" and "tires".  

Any hint is apprecheated!

Cheers,

Roy

If your company uses our [Table Filter, Charts \& Spreadsheets for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-charts-spreadsheets-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) app, you may try the following workaround:

* Insert the [Content Report Table](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-content-report-table-macro/) macro twice
* Get two separate tables: for pages with "cars" and pages with "tires" (as far as I know the macro doesn't work with AND/OR operators)
* Then you may take our [Table Transformer](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/table-transformer-42241552.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro and join these two tables by Page Titles - the result table will show entries that are present in both source tables (have both labels)

Maybe it somehow helps.

You can try creating a database with all pages in your space, setup one column to display labels and then just filter based on your reqs.

Confluence management apps can do the same.

If it's search you're looking for... Take a look at this app - [https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1213090/cql-search?tab=pricing\&hosting=cloud](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1213090/cql-search?tab=pricing&hosting=cloud)

author: Marc - Devoteam

Yes, all notification will be disabled in Confluence on global level, until you re-enable the setting.


author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@Fabian Sieg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5512858) You could do a small test and see whether publishing changes using the **Update without notifying watchers** command on the **More Actions** menu results in a notification to someone mentioned on the page or not.

I would think they would only get a notification if your changes include a **new mention**, but, as I say, you could test it out to see.

comments: author: Marc - Devoteam
body: Hi [@Barbara Szczesniak](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5187859)

I see your point but this option, doesn't exist in Cloud.

You can select the arrow next to update and then uncheck the box "notify users by email", but this has to be done every time for each time you edit the page and want to update.

Disabling global mail will be quicker. [@Fabian Sieg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5512858) notify your user base on this temporary action.


author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@Marc - Devoteam](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3796976) I only use Cloud and use this option all the time to see my page updates without others needing to know every time.

Automatically create a link to a Jira item when I type a Jira Key in confluence
Asked by Tony Nathan:

When I type a JIra Key in the confluence page, I want it to create a link to the JIra item automatically.

I type MYPOJ-22, and I get link showing the type icon, the summary, and the status.  

How do I get this working


Answers:
author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@Tony Nathan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5579445) Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I think that, when you simply type text that happens to be the ID of a Jira item, there's no way for Confluence to know that it's a Jira reference and not just random text.

I don't know the IDs of Jira items off the top of my head, so the way I insert such links is:

1. Display the item in a board or list in Jira.
2. Right-click the ID and select **Copy Link**.
3. Paste the link in my Confluence page.

By default, it is inserted as an Inline link, which includes the icon, summary, and status.

If you want to insert a table of Jira items, you could use the Jira Issues macro (see <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-jira-issues-macro/>).
