Custom fields: use input value of the custom field in a the description field to create hyperlink
Asked by Stijn Verschraegen:

Dear,

I have create a custom field 'ProjectID', in which the user need to put our SAP project ID.

With this ID I want to generate some hyperlinks to our BI environment (eg show in the desciption). The hyperlink contains the project ID as variable.

Can this be done in Trello?

Best regards

This is not currently possible natively within Trello, although it is likely possible using a custom tool in combination with our API. You can read more about our API at <https://developers.trello.com/v1.0/reference#introduction>  

In the meantime, I'll let our team know this is something that you are interested in!

CALENDAR function to repeat the events
Asked by Punchy Peb:

Dear Trellos,

we are about to create a birthday calendar for our team. Is there a possiblity o put in every birthday just once and repeat this for the next years without creating every birthday as an event again.

So the calender should save all Birthday- events and save them for the next years as well.

cheers

that was very helpfull. I just guess without the upgrade to business class I can't get this function to the calendar. =(

body: Glad it was helpful! With the free plan, you can have 1 Power-Up enabled per board, so you have to think about what's your priority and pick the one you'd use the most. :)


author: Marta Galofre de Alos
body: That's correct! Right now, the Calendar and Card Repeater Power-Ups don't speak to each other, so it's not possible to automatically create recurring due dates with the Card Repeater. I completely see how this would be useful and I'll pass your interest in this to the team.  

In the meantime, you can use the Butler Power-Up, which lets you customize Trello with buttons that perform your most frequent actions in one click: <https://info.trello.com/power-ups/butler> You can recurringly add due dates to repeated cards with it.

We are not able to log-in to Trello in 3 of our desktop computer for 2 weeks now. But for the rest of our laptop and desktop computers, we can log-in. It displays the message "Your browser was unable to load all of the Trello's resources. They may have been blocked by your firewall, proxy or browser configuration.

We tried flushing the DNS, renewing the IP address, clear the browsing history and even added the 3 URLs as stated in the troubleshooting guide but still we cannot log-in.

Auto assign board member to a card when they email to board
Asked by trudisaul:

Our team use the email to board function - just wondering if its possible to auto assign the team member to the card that gets created when they use this feature? The team member that created the card / sent the email wants to be alerted to any updates on the card - currently, we're assigning them to the card manually. Thanks, Trudi


Answers:
author: Mike
body: Hi Trudi,

**Automatically?** No, unfortunately. You do have an option, though!

The sender of the email can add their @username to either the subject line or the body of the email (if body, it must be on its own, separate line). That's probably the easiest way to do it. Trello will also add anyone on CC with a matching Trello account as members, but doing that would only add to the emails in that person's inbox!

body: Hey Michael - thanks for this information - will give your suggestion a go.

How do I allow someone to add a card, comment and reply, but not edit the admin settings of a card?
Asked by Daniel ?DazzaJay? Fitzgerald:

Hello. I'm a little confused.

I'm sure when i created my board that cards were able to be created by any Trello user.

Then i changed a couple of settings regarding teams, and now cards cannot be created by anyone other than me.

I've changed all the settings back as far as i could find, and have even deleted the teams, still only I can create cards on my public board.

How can i fix this? or will i have to delete the entire board and start again?

What I'm trying to do:

Allow people to create cards within two specific lists. (Bug Reports \& Feature Request)  
Disallow people to edit the other lists.

Why? I'm trying to use Trello as a Development Bugtracker for an app, where users of the app can report a bug or send in a feature request. etc.

See board: <https://trello.com/b/P7aJEuk9>


Answers:
author: Marta Galofre de Alos
body: Hi Daniel,

Thanks for that!

Right now, in order to let people add cards to public boards, you'll need to invite them to become members of the boards. However, once they become members, they'll be able to add cards to whichever list from the board. Here's more information about setting the visibility of a board to public, private, or team-visible: <https://help.trello.com/article/789-changing-the-visibility-of-a-board-to-public-private-or-team>

Because you may not want to invite all team members to the board so they can create new cards, as a workaround, I'd suggest adding a car with an online form so they can submit their requests or bugs. Then, integrate the online form with Trello (via Zapier), so that new cards get created upon submission.

I hope that helps!
Wanting to create a pdf of a checklist in Trello. I?m on an IPad Pro, Trello Gold (free).
Asked by Ellen Schulz:

I am using checklists in a Card to organize information I would like to refer to in print. i.e, step by step How To... Is it possible to print checklists (IOS Ipad) or turn them into a pdf for printing? I travel a lot and having this in Trello has been great for portability and organization. Thank you for your guidance in advance.


Answers:
author: Marta Galofre de Alos
body: Hi Ellen,

<br />

Because we built Trello to be a next-generation web and mobile application, it doesn't have great built-in printing support. While we do offer printing in the web app (so not in the iOS app), it's not a core feature of Trello:  

[Printing in Trello](http://help.trello.com/article/812-printing-in-trello)  

However, we are aware of a third-party extension that allows for printing from Trello, which you may want to check out:<https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/board-printer-for-trello/lpjpokeiblobbcpfheneagcfjlcjbkhf>

Is there a way to link a confluence space to a network folder with the Cloud version?
Asked by Tyler Rettberg:

I know you can use WedDAV clients on other versions, but is there a way, with the Cloud version of Confluence, to link all the documents in a folder to a confluence space? So, when you add/remove things in the folder, it will create/delete pages, attachments, etc? Or if not, is there a relatively simple alternative?


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Tyler Rettberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4311654) You would have to use an app. Google docs connector or SharePoint connector would get you close to what you are explaining.

Get a table from confluence page
Asked by Fl?vio Silva:

Hi,

I?m trying to read a table in a Confluence page to later on process it on Power BI.

So far I was able to get a HTML object thru API request and next step would be parsing it with beautiful soup, for instance.

I wonder if I could use 'Table Exporter for Confluence' app for doing it (via request).

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance


Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Fl?vio Silva](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4311633) ,

It seems that the Table Exporter can provide only manual export.

What concerns your case in general, we suggest storing and processing everything in one place - in Confluence.

You can use, for example, the [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) app to filter your tables, perform calculations, aggregate data and visualize your pivots and reports. The app works not only with manually created tables, but with macro generated tables as well (Jira Issues macro, Page Properties Report, etc.).

So, you'll be able to create fully functioning real-time dashboards based on one or multiple tables right in Confluence. You don't need to switch between different products and keep everything up-to-date.

Here is an [example](https://youtu.be/bETtOUBCDbY) of such case.

What is the best way to import a document so that it doesn't lose formatting?
Asked by Jeff Burrell:

Is there a document format (Word, pdf, other) that holds it's formatting when imported into Confluence?


Answers:
author: Michelle Rau HP
body: Thanks [@Matt Reiner \[K15t\]](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2246048) for the shout-out! Hi [@Jeff Burrell](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4311580)I'd start by asking two questions,

* what is the scale or scope of your import? If it is just one or a few documents, converting to plain text, importing, then redoing the formatting is the safest bet.
* what is the purpose of the formatting you want to preserve? Is it about appearance only, or functionality? Can it be done differently, or better in Confluence? Wiki is a whole new paradigm.

Multiple rounds of editing in MS Word can result in deeply nested (and/or conflicting) formatting instructions that can actually break a wiki page. There are scripts and tools to strip the invisible formatting junk that MS Word puts into a document. "Clear formatting" buttons are available in some software and can help.

Not long ago I had to re-create a wiki page that was broken and showing two places in the page tree. (Not an indexing problem) The text had originated in Word and there was so much garbage in it, it had corrupted the page and the only solution was to remove it and start over.


author: Matt Reiner [K15t]
body: [@Michelle Rau HP](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1142241) wrote a really great article on this topic. She broke down everything that is and isn't imported using the Word importer: <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Michelle-s-quot-Five-Stages-of-Word-Import-quot-Survival-Guide/ba-p/1584915>


author: Krister Broman _Advania_
body: Not really, if you check a word file by for example exporting it to an HTML file, you will see that its extremely formatted and that formatting will not be retained in the import process as when the import takes place it needs to be converted to the Confluence \*wiki\* format, so the result will differ in some way or another.

The best way that i have found to get as close as possible for a 1 to 1 import from a source file, is to have the source data as an HTML file, and then to save a page in confluence then edit and use the HTML source code. This is something that I use primarily when I need to do something with tables. Its not 100% anyway though as Confluence will not display everything even of you use the HTML source.


author: Bastian Stehmann
body: Hi [@Jeff Burrell](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4311580) ,

Welcome to the community.

You can use the document import option with word documents.

This way, most of the formatting will be kept, as far as confluence supports the formatting.

You can do formatting in word that is not supported by confluence, so such things will be lost.

Is there a way to save the selection to "publish without notifying watchers"?
Asked by amcclave:

It's challenging to remember to navigate to "publish without notifying watchers" every time you want to make a page update, especially if the page is being edited by a large group of people all at the same time.

We want to be able to tag team members and stakeholders in our page, so that they know to look at a specific line item, but we don't want them to get spammed every time somebody on the team makes an update.

It would be great if we could set the default page-level publishing status to either be "publish without notifying watchers" or regular publishing etc. Why can't this be changed and saved, so that you don't have to stress about hitting 'publish'?


Answers:
author: Lasse Bencke
body: Hi [@amcclave](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4311524) .  

We have had the same wondering, but since we use the server solution, I ended up adding custom html, disabling the notifying function.   

```
function disableWatchers() {
setTimeout(disableWatchers, 1000);
if ( $('#notifyWatchers').attr( "mz" ) != 1) {
setTimeout(function() {$('#notifyWatchers').removeAttr('checked');}, 1000);
$('#notifyWatchers').attr( "mz", 1);
}
}
disableWatchers();
```

I'm not sure if you can use the same method for cloud, but I bet there is a an app for that.

Welcome to the Community.

Looking back on previous posts it looks like Atlassian responded with some links you can find here: [https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/In-Confluence-Cloud-can-we-put-the-Notify-Watcher-uncheck-by/qaq-p/804872#:\~:text=Unfortunately%2C%20there%20is%20no%20option,Confluence%20will%20save%20their%20preference](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/In-Confluence-Cloud-can-we-put-the-Notify-Watcher-uncheck-by/qaq-p/804872#:~:text=Unfortunately%2C%20there%20is%20no%20option,Confluence%20will%20save%20their%20preference).

From what I see it looks like they chose not to move forward with those requests.

Table of contents hide headers
Asked by Petr AST:

Hi there!  
Who knows, is it a bug? There is a page, several headers. When I add a table of contents, the links lead to the right place in the page, but the headers are hidden, I need to scroll the wheel a little higher to see it.  
Who knows what's the matter? Thanks!

Just realized the cause of the problem, which I have already reported to support. If at the end of the heading there is a question mark, as I had, then the heading disappears. If you remove the question mark, everything rises as it should. I don't know, maybe you had a different problem, but who knows, mb it will helps.

My pages keep moving out of groups
Asked by Emily Ling:

I'm trying to group my pages, so I create a parent page for each group and then add my pages to the parent page. However, whenever I edit a page, a lot of pages keep being removed from their parent page, so I have to keep moving them back to their parent page. This is happening for all pages, not just the ones in the group of a page I have edited. I have no clue why this keeps happening.


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello there [@Emily Ling](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4311219) !

I have seen this behavior in the past. This usually happens when we try to reorders pages which we do not have enough permissions to Edit.

I suggest you to check if all the pages that you are trying to move have the right restrictions that would allow you to edit them.

When we try to move an edit restricted page, Confluence will show the action as "done" in the User Interface but will silently fail the actual page reorder. So when you go back or reload the page, the page tree looks all different.

Let me know if this helps you out!

comments: author: Emily Ling

File list type of page - difference between uploading files from the main page vs from edit page
Asked by Radha D:

I notice some differences when we try the following in Confluence server:

* On a file list type of page, I am allowed to upload files using the **browse for files** option below the page
* However, I also see an edit option on top of the same page. If I click on that and try to upload files using the Insert more content \>Files and images, the view is completely different. Further when I click update, the changes made as part of point 1 listed above are completely lost. I do not get to see the **browse for files** option anymore.
* Please suggest if these 2 things are meant for different purpose.
* Also, yesterday I noticed that if I upload a file on top of a current one, the changes are not reflected. This was true even when I deleted an old file and uploaded a new one. Why this happens only sometimes?


Answers:
author: Brandon Viertel
body: They are similar in the sense that they both attach to the page. When in the editor and uploading, it attaches to the page and allows you to insert it as part of the content. When uploading from the Browse for Files, it only attaches to the page and not show as part of the content.

How to create a Monthly incident report page
Asked by serge calderara:

Dear all,

I have different incident ctaegory which have been raised by product in Jira.

I would like to get a confluence report template which collect a summary of those incident with information like Jira Key, status, owner,... groups by component

That confluence report page should be dynamiquely generated.

1- genrate the proper filter in Jira with necesary fields  
2- Call that filter in a conflluence table

Then use the Jira macro in the page

But by doing so is tehre a way to split the result by product from a given filter or should I used a unique filter per component ?

regards

serge


Answers:
author: Mike Bowen
body: Hi [@serge calderara](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3385932)

What do you mean by dynamically generated?

1. Create the filter in Jira for the incidents. I used the following JQL script: "project = SESD AND issuetype = Incident AND status in (Closed, "In Progress", Resolved) AND created \>= "-4w 2d" AND created \<= "4w 2d" ORDER BY created DESC"  
   ![filter for incident.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/143808iD0E2686C7F40799A/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "filter for incident.jpg")
2. Save the filter as something (Monthly incident filter).
3. Copy the **filter code** in the URL.
4. Create a confluence page and use a JIRA filter macro and load the filter saved in step 2 \& 3 or type in the **filter code**.
5. Update the columns one would like to see.   
   ![jira filter showing incidents filtered by past month.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/143809iBF353ABD1527DD67/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "jira filter showing incidents filtered by past month.jpg")
6. Done.

Kind regards,
