How can we create a progress bar that shows number of pages completed
Asked by neetubhatt:

I want to create a progress bar where I have total number of pages to be updated and show a progress bar with details of completed pages / total number of pages. Somewhere similar to what we have in "Copy" function of confluence in case of multiple pages selected .

We can also suggest our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=server&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) app and its [Chart from Table](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Chart+from+Table+macro?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro.

The macro supports various kinds of graphs and dynamic tabular Confluence macros such as Content Report Table.

If you need to calculate totals and show percentage, the Chart from Table macro can be amplified by the [Pivot Table](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Pivot+Table+macro?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) and [Table Transformer](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Transformer+macro?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macros that are also provided by the app.

Inline edit for Confluence documents
Asked by Piyush A _STR_:

I'm not sure if I understand you correct. But here is the documentation for creating a template in confluence cloud

comments: author: Jagadeesh Koppisetti

Actual question is to auto update the fields in the confluence page or create a new table on every day automatically from jira assigned tickets in confluence.


author: Dominic Lagger
body: Hi [@Jagadeesh Koppisetti](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4848620)

So basically you want to get jira information in confluence?

Then you can use the jira macro:

Auto collection of data in template
Asked by Darrin Todd:

Hi Everyone,

I have created a new template that has a lot of information that we are collecting which goes into a log for review.  

We are trying to collect some of the information automatically against some of the fields in the template form.

1) Created Date

2) User Name

If anyone has done this could you please assist


Answers:
author: Ste Wright
body: Hi [@Darrin Todd](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4497943)

Can I clarify...

* You have a template, with a table on it
* There are some variables on the template users need to fill in
* You'd like current user, and current date, to populate automatically?

If yes - not that I know of natively. It is possible in Server/DC using [user macros](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/writing-user-macros-4485.html), but these are not available in Cloud.

There might be an alternative on the Marketplace though - check out some options [here](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?query=confluence%20cloud%20macros).

Why can't I add cut/paste data to an expand widget?
Asked by Buratt, Scott:

Up until recently, I could

- edit page

- cut data (text) from the page

- past that data (text) into to an expand widget

As of about 2 weeks ago, when moving the cursor into the expand widget and doing "paste" \<ctrl-v\>, the data never gets added.

I believe the query for MySQL should work fine on MS SQL Server.

The only function there is CONCAT which has the same syntax on SQL Server.

Let us know if you get any error when running it.

welcome to the atlassian community!

Unfortunately, you embedded database (H2 builtin DB) seems to be corrupted. Usually this error is hard to be fixed. Embedded db should be avoided specially in a prod environment.

My suggestion is to try to recovery a backup (Confluence has a backup job that creates backups files in your application data/Confluence/backups).

Hope this helps,

Good luck!

Can't access spaces since admin
Asked by Mohamed Rebai:

Hi,

This morning I request admin rights in Confluence in order to edit templates. But, from the moment they upgraded my access to admin, I lost access to all the spaces I didn't create, even though the restriction level for each of them is "Anyone on Confluence can view and edit".

I'm surprised by how can we lose accesses by becoming admin. I took a look on the permissions, and I don't see anything wrong, any clue on what might cause this?

Thank you

How to make drafts and other page versions public?
Asked by Pyotr Novokreshchenov:

Hi!

I've found [this article](https://wiki.comalatech.com/display/CDCLS/Draft+and+final+states) of yours that states:

*
  > by default, users with **View-only permission**n (sic!) will only see the most recently published version -- they can't see draft versions
*
  > users who have **Edit or Admin permission** can see all versions, and easily switch between the latest published (final) and draft versions

In line with it, currently on my space users who don't have Edit permission cannot see other versions of the page (can click on them though), nor can they see the "un-reviewed" version that preceeds the final one (however all view restr-ons are lifted:![1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/192063i0657F15AA1B719CD/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "1.png"))

Can I achive any ( maybe all? :) ) of the following aims:

* Make all versions acessible to users;
* Make pages in "review" state (not final) visible to users.

Thanks a lot in advance!


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Pyotr Novokreshchenov](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4865465) Welcome to the Atlassian community

The whole reason for version control is to prevent information that has not been approved / published from being made visible. It is also there to ensure that only one source of truth, latest version is what individuals look to. If you have edit or admin permission then you would see everything you are looking to give users. So you would need to give all users edit permission. I don't know why everyone would need to see this information unless they were truly editing and contributing to the document.

comments: author: Pyotr Novokreshchenov
body: Thank you for the quick and comprehensive answer!

The idea behind restricting access to versions looks reasonable to me now.

Page Properties Report: Showing Headers Not in Page Properties
Asked by Johnathon Leslie:

I am having an issue. I created a page in Confluence and set up a table as a Page Properties macro. I used this same page to copy and create new pages, each with the same table with the same page properties. When I set up the Page Properties Report macro at the main level page, it started showing columns/headers that do not appear in any table in any of the pages. I have no idea as to why this is or how to correct it.


Answers:
author: Kim Trask
body: For the Page Properties Report macro to pull data properly from a Page Properties macro added to other pages the Page Properties macro needs to be consistently structured in all pages with a shared parent page or in all pages with a shared label. There cannot be table header differences one page to the next and only a single header row/column can be identified. Ensure only one Page Properties macro is deployed per page and that the table header in each Page Properties container is the same across all pages (there must be a defined and consistent header row).

comments: author: Johnathon Leslie
body: Thank you for the feedback! I double checked all relevant pages and they all have the exact same table structure. I can also confirm that there is only one table property on each page linked to the main level page.


author: Kim Trask
body: In that case, within the page that holds your Page properties report macro, open the macro for editing. Ensure the common label for the individual pages and appropriate space(s) are selected, and click "Show" next to options. Scroll down to "Columns to show" and type in the exact header for each column, comma separated, you wish to display on this page. That should omit the extraneous headers.

Blog post notification

Hey Everyone,

Is is possible to send a custom notification to all the confluence users when a blog post is created ?

I would like to send them something like this over email \& then upon clicking the link they should be redirected to the blog post.

as a quick and dirty workaround you may share the blog post with the group containing all users - if there is one ...

Kind regards,

Nicolai


author: Dominic Lagger
body: Hi [@Vishal](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3505998)

Out of the box, you can't change this.

I would assume, that you could write a script with ScriptRunner, which triggers the blogcreate event and then send an email. But with my experience, this will be very hard to achieve.

Hard to believe you can't add a template to an existing page??
Asked by joseph.marshall:

I have an existing page. It's blank. I want to add a template to it. There must be a way to do this, no?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: "Template" is an accurate word to describe what Confluence templates do. A template provides something in a certain shape when you are creating a new thing.

You can't apply templates to existing pages, because that's not what they are for. If you could apply a template to an existing page, all it could do is destroy all the existing content and impose its own content in it.

You've got an empty page now, I suggest you simply make a note of the name, delete or rename it, go back to the page it was underneath, and create it again, using the template you want to use, and giving it the saved name.


author: Dave Mathijs
body: Hi [@joseph.marshall](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4857291) ,

You create a page from a template, you cannot add a template after the page has been created.

In that case I would create a new page from a template and actually save it as an (empty) page template.

Then you could copy/paste the template portion of that page into your existing page.
how can i enforce 2FA for my 600 + users from other approved domains. but not my work domain

Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Efetobore Omadevuae](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4625523) ,

please take a look to the following article <https://support.atlassian.com/security-and-access-policies/docs/enforce-two-step-verification/> in order to figure out how to enable 2FA.

As specified here you can enable 2FA just for the approved domains but not for others:

* You can only enforce two-step verification on user accounts from your verified domains. Users that are either [self-managed](https://support.atlassian.com/atlassian-account/docs/what-is-an-atlassian-account) or managed by another domain, and haven't enabled two-step verification, can still log in without using two-step verification.

There's an open ticket <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ACCESS-102> in order to allow to 2FA for other users.

Please vote and watch it in order to keep you updated.

Hope this helps,

Fabio
