I am seeing high CPU usage while edit a Confluence page
Asked by Ankur Jain:

I am seeing high CPU usage while edit a Confluence page. I have observed this behavior on both Chrome and Edge. As soon i enter edit mode CPU usage and power consumption goes up. Just viewing the page doesn't cause any high CPU usage.

This is the first time i have seen this behavior. Has anyone else observed this behavior?

body: Hi [@Ankur Jain](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1711998) I just checked in my personal Confluence Cloud and no CPU usage went up :(

comments: author: Ankur Jain
body: Thanks, [@Martin Bayer _MoroSystems_ s_r_o__](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/527698) I will monitor the situation today and see if it happens once again.


author: Ankur Jain
body: I am still seeing the same issue. I have four large tables in that confluence page and a lot of text information. Issue was related to the large amount of data and bad memory management of Chromium browser(s).


author: Martin Bayer _MoroSystems_ s_r_o__
body: Hi [@Ankur Jain](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1711998) and how did you solve it? Did you split the page to have only one table per page?


author: Ankur Jain
body: [@Martin Bayer _MoroSystems_ s_r_o__](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/527698) I have divided one large table into multiple smaller tables. Also, I used Microsoft Edge (Chromium) browser for the editing. Edge was better than the Google Chrome. Working on Chrome was almost impossible.


author: Jan Jebavy
body: Hi Ankur. That's not really a solution, now is it? Just avoided the problem by splitting the table. Or is there something I am missing? Thanks for any info.


author: Ankur Jain
body: You are right. That's not really a solution but I had to go ahead with a workaround because I needed to publish the page.


author: Jan Jebavy
body: Understand, thanks for clarifing this. I have this issue too, there are three tables on my page, each has about 20 rows. Nothing I would consider *large* tables to be honest. Something is not right with the editor.

This happend today, after I switched from my old HP notebook to a Dell Latitude 5420. With the HP there were no issues at all.

I'm working with Confluence 7.13.2 and a Chrome Version 96.0.4664.45 (Offizieller Build) (64-Bit).

Editing causes Chrome to burst in CPU usage and Memory usage.

My Chrome trend is usually Very Low, also, there are about 31 tabs opened and the total CPU consumption is 5.6% whilst Confluence page editor contributes 4.8% to.

How do I add the current date to a template?
Asked by Bret Wisecarver:

I am able to add a date from the content by using

[https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf71/configuring-time-and-date-formats-979423992.html](https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf71/configuring-time-and-date-formats-979423992.html?)

Answers:

welcome to this wonderful community.

As your link is showing server link my solution may work out for you - I created a simple costumer macro which shows last date modified.

```
##Macro title: AUI Button
## Macro has body: N

## @noparams

$action.dateFormatter.formatDateTime($content.getLastModificationDate())
```

It's working fine for us.

We use it in a table with page properties and it looks like this.

$action.dateFormatter.formatGivenString("dd-MMM-yyyy", $content.currentDate)

It is also not working once i tried your version

Is there some "how to" to be able to fix it on our current Confluence version?

thank you

is true collaborative editing available in the cloud edition like google docs?
Asked by Kieran Donnelly:

This [page](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/collaborative-editing-858771779.html) (server?) indicates one can do google docs style editing i.e. clear indication of other users making changes. This does not appear to be available in the cloud edition.

Yes, I can edit a page and see other users making changes in real-time but not in the manner as described [here](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/collaborative-editing-858771779.html). I must be in edit mode also.

What am i missing?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: What do you mean "not in the manner described"? (That is a server doc, not a cloud one, and the editors in them are now quite different)

You can see other people editing in real time, and when you save the page, you save all of it, what do you think is missing from the collaborative part of that?

comments: author: Kieran Donnelly
body: I worded this awkwardly.

With a google doc, it opens up by default in edit or suggesting mode, i can immediately see changes being made in real-time. A colored cursor indicates who and what is changing.

In my test with confluence, when both users opened a page in edit mode, i don't believe we noticed any colored cursor actions around real-time changes from each user. Would that be the difference between server and cloud editors or did I test this incorrectly?!


author: Kieran Donnelly
body: Retested. It works as described in the service doc I referenced.


author: Sam Lucas
body: Hi there [@Kieran Donnelly](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4067240) ! We have just opened up a [Early Access Program for Live-edit pages in Confluence.

Confiforms field contents in Confluence Search
Asked by its moi:

In my Confiforms form definition I have activated "Allow data export and enable search". But I am not able to find content from a record I have just registered in the form via global search.

So I am wondering, if a new record in a form should go to the search index right away (like newly created pages) and how the result will look like, or where the search result will link to. Is there anything else to do after setting the option in form definition? I am really keen on this :)


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Have you created any "views" over your data? Also, make sure you have unchecked the "show only own data to non-admin users" parameter on the form

comments: author: its moi
body: Yes I do have views, would the search point me to the pages with those views containing that data? And I also have not checked above mentioned parameter, but I do not seem to find anything still.


author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Yes, the search will show the pages that use the form.

How can I create a table macro?
Asked by Stefan Markov:

We love the tables macro that is available when writing pages.

When writing similar pages for different things that should have the same headers with different information things sometimes get missed.

Finally, we came up with a table that has the headers with the information that we feel is appropriate.

An idea was to make that table into a macro so that we can drop it and fill in the information needed. Going into creating macro's I am not able to find how to do that.

Example of what we want the macro to look like.

![image.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/124565iB8C038A5773CBD97/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

How would I go into creating a macro that pastes a table similar to this?

Of course, I just made a quick draft of something similar but the ones we use have a lot more information.

So far I have been copying pasting information and making a new table each time.

Thanks


Answers:
author: Fabienne Gerhard
body: Hi [@Stefan Markov](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4214862)

not sure about the macro but a solution would be using a template where you use the template you created to fill up.

Have a look on how to create templates here:

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/create-a-template-296093779.html>

Feel free to ask for more help!

comments: author: Stefan Markov

Checking who can View a Page
Asked by Jana Rasmussen:

I am a Site Admin for our Confluence account and am learning how to admin specific things. I found a page that explained about Permissions and Restrictions with a link to a page about Checking who can View a Page (<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/check-who-can-view-a-page-992678937.html>). The page indicates that a system admin has access to turn this feature off or on. As a user in the space, I cannot see an option for "People who can view" when I click on the 3 dots within a page. As an admin, the information linked above says to

1. Go to \<base-url\>/admin/plugins/gatekeeper-plugin/global/configuration.action

to disable it (or I assume I can re-enable it if it's been disabled - I don't know why it would have been disabled in the first place or by whom). When I attempt this, it takes me to a page that says it can't find the page I am looking for. I don't see any global configuration options on the site admin page. What access do I need to have in order to do this? Can the Org \& Site Admin person fix this for us?  

How do I gain access to being able to fix this?


Answers:
author: Benjamin
body: Hi Jana, System admin is more for Server and DC platforms. The link you have listed for the server platform but since you are a site admin ...you are definitely on the cloud platform.

-Ben

comments: author: Jana Rasmussen
body: Thank you for your reply, Ben!

Yes, I know we are on the cloud platform, but the Q\&As available here aren't always clear about what platform the information refers to.

So, just so I can understand your response better - are you saying that the Cloud Platform doesn't have access to something like the "Check who can View a Page" aspect of Confluence? I am working on some other issues related to space permissions and parent-child page restrictions, and I hoped that being able to view exactly who of our users could see a specific page would help me understand better how to set space permissions and page restrictions. How do I, on the cloud platform, see the list of users who can view a page?


author: Benjamin
body: You welcome. There's a tool for inspect permission but it's on the premium plan.

<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/inspect-a-users-permissions/>

For the manual way, you will need to check along these steps:

1. Check the space permission. If good, go to 2

2. Check the parent page. If good, go to 3.

3. check the child page. If good, then they have the permission to view the page.

Viewing page permission is inherited. So, it's always good to check the parent first.

Trello coming up in 2 languages at the same time!
Asked by ANDREA LLOYD:

hello there. I just installed Trello a few days ago on my laptop (which is French even though I'm in the UK - long story).

It call came up in French which will slow me down considerably so i went into my profile and changed the language to English.

Now i have some english text on the right hand side of the screen, but the rest is mostly still all in French.

Can anyone help? I contacted Trello themselves, but no reply.

Many thanks,

Andrea

Can you please try loading Trello on another web browser to see if you experience the same issue? If you don't experience the same, then it could be a browser issue that simply needs cache/cookies to be cleared.

body: hi Matthew,

I've tried and it comes up the same. The only section I have in English (which is the language I have now set for my profile) is the first few lines of the menu at the top right hand side of my welcome screen. Everything else is in French.

I'm hope you'll have another suggestion for me :-)

Why does a team board show up under my personal boards?
Asked by M. McPhee:

I was invited to a team by another Trello user. I accepted the invitation, and now that board shows up under my "Personal Boards." Why doesn't it show up as a team I belong to? I'd like to get it out of my "personal boards" area. Any suggestions? Thanks!


Answers:
author: Dan Lew
body: I suspect that the board is not in a team that you belong to. In that case, the board ends up under "personal boards" instead of the actual team it's in. Alternatively, the board you were invited to may not be in any team (with the same result).  

If you want it to end up grouped in one of your teams, you'll have to make sure that board is in it. Here's a help page on how to do that: <http://help.trello.com/article/772-associating-a-board-with-a-team>

Labels  
Card #

body: Hey Jason,

In CSV Exports, the 9 fields you mention are currently the only ones available. You could try using [www.reportsfortrello.com](http://www.reportsfortrello.com) to see if that will give you some more options. There are some other Chrome Extensions that you can possibly use to see as well, just search in Google reporting for Trello.

Is there a way to add a member to a card as just an observer?
Asked by Brian Evans:

I want to be able to assign a single member as the owner, but there are time where I would like to add other members just as observers and allow notification rules based on that (but not confuse them on who owns the card/task). This would be especially helpful as well if the filter would also allow the differentiation.

This is different that adding observers to a list.


Answers:
author: Caity
body: Hi Brian,

Right now, there isn't a way to subscribe other users to a card without adding them as members of that card.

However, if these are members of the board already, you can @ mention them in a comment on the card and suggest that they subscribe to the card. If they subscribe, they'll then receive updates about changes to that card, without having to be a member.

We have some more information about subscribing here: <http://help.trello.com/article/799-subscribing-to-cards-lists-and-boards>

Permissions are board specific, and there's not currently a way to make permissions based on list or card.

Is there a way to merge the information on two cards to one single card.
Asked by Tim McAdams:

Can I take the information on one card and add it to another card? Several times my teams will create another card for an event when what should have happened is they should have added to a card that was already on the board.
