Best Way to Run a Multi-Week Announcement Calendar
Asked by Mike Moore:

I have a communications board that use to plan weekly announcements that we publish / release. Items get their own card with all details about that communication. Every one of them runs for at least 2 weeks and often more. The current way I handle this is a list per week and then I have to copy and paste the cards. The negative is that these are all then separated cards and info gets out of sorts quickly. How can this be done better?

body: Hi Mike,

It might be a good idea to look into a third-party tool for this sort of functionality. We can't really endorse a particular tool, but one that I've heard of others using for this is [Planyway](https://planyway.com/). With this tool, you can visualise your cards on a timeline giving you a better overview of these cards and how they interact together.

Thanks!

Paging through boards with API
Asked by walter smith:

How can I page through a large number of boards through the API ? I dont see anything in the documentation on how to page through boards specifically.

I have a large number of boards and cant get them all at once because the response returns "Internal Server Error".

This leads me to believe I need to page through this large number of boards

Thanks

This looks like a question that might be more suited to our developer forum. I found a response there that looks like it fits your question here: <https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/trello-boards-cards-attachments-list-api/35663>. If you have further questions, I'd recommend continuing in that thread.

My Microsoft TEAMS aren't showing in the drop-down menu
Asked by Liana Orlandi:

I'm new to Trello \& have created a few boards. I can see one of them in my work TEAMS environment, but when I click the "Personal" button to try to change it from Personal to a work TEAM it shows that there are no other teams \& asks me to add a team.

Thanks for following up. I was hoping that I would be able to add Trello boards to my work's existing Microsoft Teams , but after using the app more, I'm understanding that I need to create new Trello teams, is that correct?

I've started this process and have invited colleagues. At this point I'm creating new Trello teams with the same names as our Microsoft teams. If there is a better way to proceed, or if there's an article about this, please let me know.

Thanks for your help!

Card counter plugin?
Asked by Monique vdB:

Hi Trello experts! I had a [Chrome extension for counting the number of cards](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/original-card-counter-for/ggamggchfpnmhmkeicjgpedgjcllcefp/related) on my lists and it has stopped working. (I've tried troubleshooting and have reached out to the developer for help.)

In the meantime, does anyone know of any plugins that include a card counter? I just want that little number on the top to help me track my work.

Thanks!

Another hack I've used is making myself a member of every card on the board (with Bulk Edits Power-up and/or Butler automation), and then using the filter cards to show cards assigned to me and it shows me how many fit that criteria in each list, which would be all the cards in the list if I'm assigned to them. This is probably the more hacky way, and I definitely recommend the above approach unless you really need that power-up space.

Asked by jennifer cohen:

I have used butler bot for years and every Monday at 8 am I remove all blue "DONE" labels from all cards on a specific board. Is there any way to replicate this on a new board that will not allow me to use butler bot anymore?

* Right away it will display as a link then delete the one that was added as a preview

Inviting Users
Asked by Aaron Zercher:

I just started a free confluence account for up to 10 users. I was able to send invites to everyone and they end up going into their inbox. However, one user their invite goes into the spam filter regardless of allowing it or not. My question: How can I send this person an invite link through Teams or send them email from my email address?


Answers:
author: Alex Koxaras _Relational_
body: Hi [@Aaron Zercher](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4879512) and welcome to the community!

You can do that by using invitation links with expiration date. You can read more here: <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-Software-questions/How-to-create-shareable-invitation-link/qaq-p/1472909>

* You have to have setup a basic product to give access to new users.
* Then you send the link you create (read the above post)

The bad thing though is that this link is sharable. Meaning this user can re-send the link to other people as well. And you might end up with more than 10 user.

Iinsert Markup feature has broken recently - not inserting anything
Asked by stevemc:

The "Insert Markup" feature is broken. This occurred fairly recently.

I'm using the Legacy Editor. When I choose "Insert Markup" and enter any text and then click "Insert", the form goes blank (no text in it) and nothing is inserted. The dialog stays open. Only way to close the dialog is to press cancel. Closing the dialog does not result in text being inserted.

This must have happened in last few weeks. last time I used it was a couple weeks ago I think. This is a very important feature for us.

Any ideas how to work around this?

It concerns me that the bug is in "Gathering Impact" status - I hope it does not stay there long. Impact seems clearly 100% reproducible to several and I am guessing all. I tried in a few different browsers.

how to auto route a pdf document
Asked by Markcuss Bellajaro:

We have a pdf document that needs to be signed by several management members.

Problem with Excerpt macro inside Expand macro
Asked by Megan Stanage:

In the new editor, we are using the excerpt macro to pull info onto a page in a different space.

It appears to work--I can nest the Excerpt macro in the Expand macro--but on the new page, it appears as "Error loading excerpt" and has a scroll bar.

The content does appear if you click the expand arrow, but we don't want the error to appear, or the scroll bar.

Anyone else run across this issue?


Answers:
author: Andrew Schreffler
body: I just discovered a workaround for this:

On the main page:  
/excerpt (hidden: this can be anywhere on the page)

/expand

/excerpt include (tied to the above excerpt inside the above expand if needed)

If excerpt needed on another page:

/expand

/excerpt include (tied to the above excerpt inside the above expand if needed)


author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Megan Stanage](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3924007) I want to make sure I have this correct.

You are adding an excerpt include into an expand macro and getting an error? You should not be able to add the excerpt macro into an expand macro. If you somehow did that is probably the issue.

comments: author: Megan Stanage
body: Not "excerpt include" but "excerpt" - we want to use the content in this expand macro on another page.

Changing the base address of all Confluence internal links
Asked by fabrizio.antonioli:

Hello, after migrating Confluence to a new server, we had to change the base address of our pages from **<https://confluence.office.mycompany.com>** to **<https://confluence.mycompany.com>**   

As a consequence, all of the links in our knowledge base are now broken, as we'd need to edit each of them to remove the ".office" part in the URL. Is there a faster way to make this change, without having to manually edit every link? Maybe a bulk operation on the links, or anything to do this automatically?  

Thank you in advance,  
Fabrizio


Answers:
author: Bill Bailey
body: If your team used the normal way to link to other pages within Confluence, you have nothing to do. If people insisted on pasting in web links, rather than page links, yes you will need a plugin to fix as stated by the other posters.

Using Confluence page links also has the huge advantage that if the page name changes, the links update as well.


author: Sven Schatter _K15t_
body: Hi [@fabrizio.antonioli](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4890795),

If you are on Cloud, you can use this free app: [Link Management for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1224660/link-management-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview). It allows you to rewrite all instances of a link in your space in one operation.

Hope this helps!

Based on the URL of your site, I suppose you are on-premise (despite the cloud tags).

For Server, there's a third-party app to help you convert absolute links to relative links.

Have a look at [Page Links Validator/Converter](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221521/page-links-validator-converter?hosting=server&tab=overview)

If you ARE on cloud (this means that the URL of your site ends on atlassian.net), then you will need to do this manually.

Dateformat in Table Transformer
Asked by Anders Johnsgaard:

Hi,

We are trying to merge several tables from different spaces using table excerpts and normal manual tables, but we struggle to unify the date format.

Is the format dd.mm.yyyy (e.g. 01.06.2022) not acceptable by the Table Transformer? Or is this an issue caused by the different profile-languages set per user in confluence?

Anyways, here is my scenario:

I get several tables, everyone with the same columns, but with different input format of the columns "Start date" and "Due date".

Some dates are written as "dd.mm.yyyy", some are "M dd, yy" (Jira), others are "dd M yy" (Confluence "//" macro)

I've been trying to FORMATDATE(Tx.'Date') each of them into "M dd, yy".

* "dd M yy" is not transformed at all.
* "dd.mm.yyyy" is transformed into "M dd, yy". but it screws up the day and month order
  * Making 01.06.2022 (which is 1st of June) into "Jan 06, 2022".
  * And 28.06.2022 is then "undefined NaN NaN"

Is there any settings in Confluence, or other workarounds when working with different dateformats to unify it no matter what profile language or browser settings or what ever?

Notification without content
Asked by Le Anh Dung:

Answers:

body: Hi [@Le Anh Dung](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2727224)   
I hope you are well.

While Confluence might not have a feature to disable content on all email notifications, users can choose to hide content of notifications when pages/blogs are edited.

This is controlled by the *Show changed content* option under Users' *profile* \> *Settings* \> *Email*.

If the option is disabled, then
> notifications will include only the title of the page, and any comment the author made when updating the page.

[Email Notifications](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/email-notifications-145162.html#EmailNotifications-Showchangedcontent)

Since this is enabled by default, you may want to check the KB article below to disable it for all users of your instance. You may need to run it whenever a new user joins your Confluence instance.

[How to disable Show Changed Content to all users](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/how-to-disable-show-changed-content-to-all-users-407725054.html)
