typing in a column macro
Asked by Heather Vitas:

*This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: [Page Layouts, Columns and Sections](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=275188613)*

When I click on a column macro on my page, I am unable to type what I want in the column.


Answers:
author: Milo Test
body: When you click in the body of the Column macro, do you get the flashing i-beam?

comments: author: Heather Vitas
body: Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't. I can't figure out the pattern.


author: Milo Test
body: So you have Column macros within a Section macro, is the Section macro in another macro, such as the Label macro?

Is there a difference in adding CSS and Javascript to Confluence pages on Cloud vs. Server?
Asked by Hisamitsu Koga:

I want to know if there a difference in adding CSS and Javascript to Confluence pages on Cloud vs. Server?

Cloud Confliuence: 1000.276.0

Server Confluence: 5.9.7


Answers:

body: I don't think you can add CSS or js to Confluence Cloud, according to <https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/restricted-functions-in-confluence-cloud-734070955.html>

The former I'm not sure why, but the latter would be due to security concerns.

Control Changes on a sei Site by person
Asked by Fluthgraf:

If I have a site, e.g. A word import, an we work together with 5-10 people at this document. I want to see the changes and I want to see who makes it.

to see the changes, I compare the 1st and the last version in the change history.

is there any solution?

Is it possible, or could it be Feature for a further version, to show the changes in different colors, depending who makes it?

a legend shows who is related to the colour.

Scroll Viewport: How to create selective Viewports
Asked by Christian Schlaefcke:

Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to create Viewports for selected pages within a space? I played around a bit and tried to get it from the docs but it seem only be possible to create Viewports from whole spaces. Am I missing something?

Cheers,

Christian


Answers:
author: roman
body: Hi Christian,

Currently, Viewport doesn't support different themes per page. You can only define a theme per space.

Would you like to create a landing page that looks different from the rest of pages, or you would like to have a Viewport only on one page, but not on any others in this space? Would be great if you could share your use case.

Cheers,

Roman.

comments: author: Christian Schlaefcke
body: Hi Roman,

our requirement would be creating a Viewport only for selected pages (one or more) from a single space.

Cheers,

Christian


author: roman
body: Hi Christian,

Unfortunately, this is not supported by Scroll Viewport. Themes are defined on a per space basis.

Cheers,

Roman.


author: Christian Schlaefcke
body: Hi Roman,

what do think? Does my request make any sense or did I miss something related to the core features of Viewport. Could my request maybe achieved in combination with other (scroll) plugins? If you think it makes sense I can open a feature request in your eco-system...

Cheers,

Christian


author: roman
body: Hi Christian,

it would be great to understand why you would like such feature. What is moving you wanting to have a Viewport-styled page, but not the whole space? If you could tell the underlying reason of why you want to achieve this, I could create a feature request for you.

However, Viewport's functionality to have a custom design across the whole space is one of the core feature of transforming a certain Confluence space into a full-blown website ([www.k15t.com,](http://www.k15t.com,) for example), so I wouldn't expect the ability to have a Viewport for selected pages to be implemented anytime soon.

Cheers,

Roman.


author: Christian Schlaefcke
body: Hi Roman,

i will have a call next Friday with Nils regarding my Scroll Versions related [question](https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/41473148/scroll-versions-page-version-overview-available). Maybe we can talk as well for further clarification? I will update this question with relevant information later on...

Cheers,

Christian


author: Tate Forgey
body: I was actually wondering this same thing for the reason that Roman suggested, which is creating a landing page that is different from the other pages. In my case, I think it would be nice to be able to have a splash page that has an emphasis on graphics with links to project pages where a different theme focussed more on content and a sidebar.

Confluence on demand does not load any resources
Asked by vstokarev:

Our company have several offices. Confluence works fine in one of them, but when we try to log in in another office - we see only hyperlinks. Please see attached image.

Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: This usually means the client is not getting all of the data it needs from the server in order to render it.

The fact that one of your offices is ok and the other fails pretty much proves that it's the network in the office where it is failing - they're not able to get all the data.

Scroll versions: Page Version Overview available?
Asked by Christian Schlaefcke:

Hi,

does anyone know if it?s possible to get an overview in a certain space of all pages and the versions that they are assigned/published with?

I already searched google and the [scroll versions docs](https://help.k15t.com/search-110530735.html?query=Overview&s=VSNDOC) but I was not able to find something relevant.

Cheers,

Christian


Answers:
author: Nils Bier _K15t_
body: Hi Christian,

Would the "Content in Version Report" work for you?

The Content in Version Report is available through the Scroll Versions Menu. Using that one you can see all pages in a specific version and can switch between versions.

Would that work for you?

comments: author: Christian Schlaefcke
body: Hi Nils,

I also checked the mentioned report but I think that this kind of report is too version centric. What would be required is a more page or space centric report - e.g. like: show all pages and the assigned/published versions within a page or by filter. I am not sure if this makes sense regarding the scroll versions plugins, but I have a customer were are some users asking for this...

Cheers,

Christian


author: Nils Bier _K15t_
body: Hi Christian,

thanks for the further details. Currently that functionality is not implemented in Scroll Versions.

I'll reach out to you via email to further discuss your customers requirements.

author: Christian Schlaefcke

thank you in advance - good idea. Maybe we can discuss about a customer specific web demo? We are currently evaluating Scroll Versions, Viewport and Translations (2000+ Users) and wonder how to get the best out of this combination. :smile:

Problem importing a space
Asked by Helen Griffith:

Hello,

I'm trying to import a space into Confluence but I've encountered this error:

Import failed. Check your server logs for more information. Error unzipping file: Zip file doesn't exist or Confluence doesn't have read access to it. backupedFile=/data/jirastudio/confluence/j2ee_confluence_a1ad1ddccbd8cc8f2264/home/temp/upload_f0b1a999_e21c_4d1d_b32d_e6840d241fdd_00000006.tmp

Any ideas what this means?!


Answers:

author: Tarun Sapra
body: Please make sure your file is location on the server and the "owner" of the file is the same user which is owner of confluence application.

comments: author: Helen Griffith
body: Thank you for your response, Tarun... I am using the Import Space tool in the admin section. I am using the Cloud version so don't have access to the server. I'll try and find where the file owner is set...


author: Bill Bailey
body: How large is the file? You can get errors trying to upload via the browser if it exceeds the limits.


author: Helen Griffith
body: Hi Bill...

It's just under the limit (100MB). I did actually fix the access problem by using WebDav. Not sure if that's the solution or if it was coincidence.

The second error about JDBC is a different one... I have an answer from Confluence... It's to do with bug:

* <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-31404>

Not really sure what it's about but there's something about orphaned pages causing a problem. They have to take the server down, apply a fix, and restart...

Thanks all. Atlassian is importing my space for me. Fingers crossed!


author: Bill Bailey
body: Usually anything of that size I just upload to the restore area of the website (actually anything over 10MB). I have just had to many problems restoring via a browser upload. Of course, this means you have to have OS-level access to the server.

Public signup confluence - license
Asked by sladha_projects NA:

I use Confluence Cloud for my organization. Let me state my requirement:

* External users: I want to open up my org's confluence site to select external users ((1) public signup - limited by domains or (2) manually added by my site's admin (3) NOT anonymous users)
* I only want read-only access to these external users. I.e. viewing only.

Will each such external user consume a Confluence Cloud license? Is there any other way I can accomplish my goal in Confluence Cloud that does not have me spending a license for each read-only external user?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: The only way to do free access is to use anonymous.   

If a user is not anonymous, then they have to log in, and to log in, you need a licence.

If you were on a server version, there are some tricks you can play, but on Cloud, no. It's anonymous or licenced user.

how to stop versioning on page in confluence?
Asked by Ravi Patel:

*This question is in reference to Atlassian Documentation: [Page History and Page Comparison Views](https://confluence.atlassian.com/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=139379)*

Right now when ever i made any changes any existing page confluence create new version (i.e. V2, v3), i don't want confluence to create multiple version right now, how should i stop to create multiple version .


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: The whole point of the page versions in Confluence is that they record your changes. You can't turn it off, it's an integral part of the system.

I think what you really want to do is implement a publication system - Confluence would version pages as it does now, but you would have another indicator for releases. You'd only release a version of a page when you're happy with it. (e.g. versions would be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 etc, but you'd publish "release 1 (version 2)" and "release 2 (version 5)" and so on)

I've used Comala Workflows to do this a few times, and Scroll Versions and/or Viewport can also do something similar.


author: Steven F Behnke
body: In addition to what Nic said, you need to stop pressing **Save** . If you want a page to remain a 'draft' you should just press ++Close++ to exit the editor. Confluence is auto-saving every 30 seconds by default.

You can find any document you've never saved in your Drafts area. I work on pages for days or weeks at a time and only **Save** it when it's ready to publish.

image2016-9-9 15:18:3.png

Confluence now has the concept of Shared Drafts with the release of Confluence 6 Live Editing, but I'm not super familiar with how they changed drafts yet.
