Resize Macro
Asked by Maggie Santos Silva:

Is there a native way to format macros so that the text size and scale is in line with the rest of the document we are producing?  

For example, I am using the change history macro but the font is much larger than 'Paragraph' and takes over the entier page, and renders terribly. This makes the macro very imposing and its use becomes undesirable.

body: Hello [@Maggie Santos Silva](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3894933)!

Font resize is not possible in Macros. What we can resize is the width which our macros use.

You may have two different types of buttons to resize your macros:

comments: author: Maggie Santos Silva
body: Thanks Diego. That's not super. I wouldn't mind changing the size of the paragraph text instead, but it only lets me pick from headers. But some macros really display far too large, even when their width is narrow.

I understand that the set of features Confluence has may or may not satisfy all needs of all businesses.

And is with this in mind that I say that it might be a good approach to go and share your feedback about this here in this report that tackles Font size adjustments in Confluence:

BUG: How do I remove deleted incomplete action items from a Task report?
Asked by Daniel Episcope:

I have deleted incomplete task items that are being pulled into a task report that filters to incomplete tasks.

When I attempt to mark these action items as 'complete' (checkbox = TRUE) in the published task report, I receive an error message (see image below)

![Screen Shot 2020-11-23 at 8.32.18 AM.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/119351iCBAC51928E47DDF6/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screen Shot 2020-11-23 at 8.32.18 AM.png")

I am unable to mark the action items as complete in the original pages because the tasks no longer exist.

It seems to be a bug and would like support to assist me in eliminating the tasks labeled as 'Topic 1' or 'Topic 2'.

Can someone point me in the right direction?


Answers:
author: Daniel Episcope
body: Workaround found.

Steps:

* Copy the pages where the deleted incomplete action items 'reside' in.
* Remove any action items that you do not intend to keep
* Click 'Publish'
* Have an admin or someone who has delete access to delete the original page.
* Rename the 'copy' page to the original name of the now deleted page (remove 'Copy of' in the name)
* Validate that the 'incomplete' action items are no longer in the task report.

author: Fabienne Gerhard
body: Hi [@Francisco Gomez Balastegui](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2380890)

ok this helps - not sure what you want to do with this macro but did you have a look on how 'Rendered' and 'Unrendered' Mode works? Also see part [Macro body processing](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/writing-user-macros-4485.html) here.

When using rendered mode you have to pack everything in your Template (body) which means your html has to be defined there -\> see[Template](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/writing-user-macros-4485.html) here.

When you just wanna style it you can change the look and feel via Stylesheet for each Space. But maybe that's not what you wanna do.


author: Francisco Gomez Balastegui
body: Hi [@Fabienne Gerhard](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/971720) , yes what we wanna do it is to stylesheet but only this paragraph, we have a lot of page that use this type of macro that have been imported from Confluence Cloud, due in cloud this macro it is default, so we need to maintain this style so we created the macro.

Excerpt Macro overrides previous macros?
Asked by Meghan Boyd:

Hi there,

If I apply the Excerpt macro to a macro that already exists in a page, do the properties of the Excerpt macro override the properties of the existing macro?

Just as an example- if I use the Excerpt macro on a Page Property macro, then run a Page Property Report macro, will Confluence still be able to recognize that the excerpt is a Page Property?


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello [@Meghan Boyd](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3586157)!

The procedure you described entails the necessity to nest macros in Confluence Cloud when using the New Editor (Fabric).

Currently, the nesting of macros is not supported in the New Editor. If you try to place a Page Properties macro inside an Excerpt macro, it will simply place it under the Excerpt macro.

Like what is shown here:
> ![Screen-Recording-2020-11-24-at-1.gif](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/119495iC4BE6B691DE7B7FC/image-dimensions/335x292?v=v2 "Screen-Recording-2020-11-24-at-1.gif")

Some time ago, a Suggestion about this has been raised. You can check it here:

Is there any way to change language except the ones that support offers?
Asked by Denis Potapov:

Hello! There is a need in useing Atlassian products in Ukranian, which is not the one "of the box" languages. As far as I understood, there are two ways to do it:  
1) Install a language pack from Atlassian Marketplace.  
2) Install custome language pack which you can customize manually.  
So, my question is... Do you know any other way to do it?

File editing not possible, Companion download hangs
Asked by J?rgen Buchinger:

Hello,

We have the problem that editing files with Atlassian Companion does not work on a virtual client. For colleagues with laptops or PCs it works fine. We assume that a security policy on the virtual client prevents Companion from downloading the file locally.

Can someone please tell me in which local directory Companion temporarily stores the file to be edited.

kind regards and thanks in advance.


Answers:
author: Alex K
body: Hi [@J?rgen Buchinger](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3567789) ,

Atlassian Companion creates a hidden directory in the user's home folder with the name ".atlassian-companion". E.g. C:\\Users\\Username\\.atlassian-companion  
It will download each file that the user edits into a separate sub folder.

Copy & Paste from WIKI Page to new Template with Picture doesn't work
Asked by J?rgn:

I prepared an article and saved it as page in confluence with the intention to use it as template in the future.

* If I now select, copy and paste the entire content of the page into a new template, the template is not saved, although the preview is displayed correctly.
* I've found, that it was due to pictures that were included in the original article.

**Does anyone of you have an idea how I can copy images from a page into a new template - except individually.**

I did not found a "Known Error", that describes this behavior of confluence.


Answers:
author: Patrick Heidel
body: Hi J?rgn,

unfortunately i just made the same experience. It seems to be an error depending on how you copied the image(s) if you just use Ctrl + C to copy the image and paste it while you are creating your template, your template is broken and would not be shown after saving.

If you use an right click while copy pasting and choose copy image the template will be created after pasting as it should.

Another workaround is to use the add image icone and insert the link of the image(s) instead.   
Hope this helps you out.   

But I would really recommend to open up a atlassian support request.

Best regards  
Patrick

Fetch data from zephyr to confluence?

how to fix mysql-connector for confluence 7.4.5
Asked by liu_uestc:

do we need update mysql-connector or java for confluence 7.4.5 after upgrade from confluence 6.11 ? how to do that update ?


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello [@liu_uestc](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1735554)!

As I understand, you need to upgrade your Confluence Server version from 6.11 to 7.4.5.

The answer to your questions depends on the following details:
> 1. *What version of MySQL are you using with Confluence 6.11?*
> 2. *Is this your production instance?*
> 3. *Has the upgrade already been done?*
> 4. *Is your instance up and running after the upgrade from 6.11 to 7.4.5?*

Looking through our Supported Platforms for Confluence 7.4.x and 6.11.x we can see that there are a few differences:
> * [++***\[Confluence Data Center and Server\] Confluence 7.4***++](https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf74/supported-platforms-1003129726.html)
> * [++***\[Confluence Data Center and Server\] Confluence 6.11***++](https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf611/supported-platforms-956138710.html)

If we look at the database support, for example, Confluence 6.11 does support MySQL 5.6 but Confluence 7.4 oldest supported version of MySQL is 5.7. So if you are running MySQL 5.6 you will need to update your database.

If we look at the Java support, we can see that both releases support Java 1.8. So this should be ok to go, since the only supported for Confluence 6.11 is 1.8 and nothing else. However, it is a good practice to check which version of java you are running.

We also have documentation that tackles this exact situation, Confluence version upgrade. You can take a look at it here:
> * [++***\[Confluence Data Center and Server\] Upgrading Confluence***++](https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf74/upgrading-confluence-1003129699.html)

How to change the default layout when creating a new page in Confluence?
Asked by Johnrey Girasol:

I have already created a customized global template and can see this option when creating a new page in Confluence. However, I wanted this template to be the default when someone from our organization tries to create a new page instead of selecting this template from the option. So when someone creates a new page there's already table of content in the right side and content by label. File attachment widget already in the bottom as default.

Thank you.


Answers:
author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@Johnrey Girasol](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4026962)

If you mean replace the default blank page when pressing the "Create" button, then I don't believe this is possible. You can see a suggestion to change this on [CONFCLOUD-45607](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-45607)

For a Space, there is an alternative:

1. Go to your Space and select Overview from the left-hand menu (or any page)
2. Press the pencil icon to edit the page
3. Add the macro "Create from Template" - search for it by typing */create from template*
4. Select the appropriate template and populate the other options, then press Save
5. Publish the page

This way, you can direct users to the Space's Overview page or similar and ask they create pages from the create button on it - which will utilise a template!
