Spaces List Macro heading disappeared
Asked by Michael Schlueter:

We just updated our Confluence server from 5.6.5 to 5.7.5.

I noticed a change in the way the "Spaces List" macro gets rendered. It used to have a heading, stating the selected filter (new, favourite, ...). For example, the Spaces List macro with the filter "favourite"

In Confluence 5.6.5:

Spaces List Confluence 5.6.5.png

In Confluence 5.7.5 it looks like this (notice, that the "Favourite Spaces" heading is missing)

Spaces List Confluence 5.7.5.png

Does anyone know if this is a bug or a new feature?

migrate confluence 3.3 to 5.8
Asked by At Lassian:

We are a small 5-person outfit in Amsterdam. We have been stalling a migration to a higher confluence version for soo long, because it is a very complicated process. Now we finally have someone who is brave enough to try, we are running into very practical problems.

* do we have to migrate as follows: 3.3 \> 3.5.1 \> 5.0.1 \> 5.8
* do we really have to install complete confluence installations for each consequtive step
* do we need to request trial keys for those installations to work
* is there no easier solution? (we use nothing fancy, it is like a simple wiki website with some attachments now)

Thanks for all help!

Oscar


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: 1. Possibly not, you might be able to jump from 3.5 to 5.8, but unless your Confluence is only using really basic functions, it's unlikely. The route you have here is the recommended one
2. Yes. But you don't have to actually use them
3. No. The same licence will work all the way though
4. No. You're trying to do something quite complex, and it's a long path. Three steps isn't actually that much!

comments: author: At Lassian
body: Dear NicThank you so much for your answer. I guess that if we do the step-wise approach anyway, we may as well include the 5.01. step. Wish us luck :-)

Table with tick boxes to show rows
Asked by Gzegosch:

Hi,

I'd like to create tick boxes on top of a table. Table would be populated by different data linked to different departments. The tick boxes would be the different department.

If I select marketing and HR (which would be headers), the table should only show me all the rows related to these two departments.

Is this something possible? With a plugin?

Thanks a lot !

How to find the usage of an Confluence add-on
Asked by Dirk Bromberg:

Hi,

we use Confluence with many add-ons and now we want to know if a specific addon is used anymore and where. (for edit / macro providing addons...)

Is there a way to do this? (by database...)

We use Confluence 5.8

Regards,

Dirk


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: There's two parts to this.

First, you simply can't do it for addons. Addons provide functionality and you can't search for that. Think of it this way - if I wrote an addon that adds a button that just says "hello world" on the menu and pops up a picture of a random kitten when pressed - how do you know how that is used? There's nothing in the database for you to search for.

Secondly, you can do it for macros, but...

Reading the database is by far the hardest way to do this. You can use multiple different macros in the body of a page, and those are stored as xml, so SQL isn't going to help you much - you'll be able to find pages where each macro is used quite easily, but you're going to have to query for **every** macro individually, **and** parse the xml for it.

Confluence search does allow you to do it more easily, although you still need to do it for **every** macro - the term macroName:note will find every where you've used the note macro for example.

Your best option is therefore to do it in Confluence where you can use the API. See @Davin Studer 's answer on <https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/155280> for what I'd do.

Atlassian Open Source License

Hi, I've created an Open Source Software and launched it onto GitHub, it's going really well and has a small following of users. I applied for the Atlassian Open Source License and has been approved. I'm not intending to develop any Commercial products with the source code BUT I'm looking into what I can do to fund my Open Source Project while abiding by Atlassians Open Source License. Reading the Wiki on Open Source, some projects do things like offer services, training, merchandise or SAAS (Software as a Service) in where you have a subscription service.

Diagramly plugin for Confluence 5.5 Issue
Asked by Kevin Hargrave:

Hi there!

When attempting to make use of the Diagramly plugin for Confluence 5.5, I create and save a new page with the plugin initialized and then when clicking "Start editing the Diagramly diagram", I am taken to a blank page with no other actions possible.

CSS application on Confluence 4.2.13
Asked by David Tucciarone:

Hello,

I've ran into a huge amount of issues when it comes to CSS on confluence 4.2.13. I am trying to apply CSS in a couple of ways that I have researched recently but so far to no avail. I have tried many ways to apply it via space tools, the PDF stylesheet under space admin, and I have even tried a macro that will apply CSS to it. So far nothing has worked. I have tried specificity by using wiki-content or other ways and so far it hasn't worked either. Is there anything I can do? I beyond need CSS for the type of page I am doing.


Answers:
author: Steffen Heller
body: @David Tucciarone

you mean that you define sizes and colors for your headings and nothing happens in the PDF?

If so, that is still a problem of specifity. Try the following:

```
.wiki-content h1, .wiki-content h2, .wiki-content h3 {  font-size: 60px !important;  color: red !important;  }
```

how to List/Display All used macros/plugins under confluence

Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

Macro usage can be done, sort of. There's nothing built in that will list your addons, but have a look at <https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/155280> - @Davin Studer has a really neat solution (be warned it can be a little slow to render on large confluence instances, but it will get there, so give it a bit of time)

pdf export toc start with heading level 2
Asked by Lina Poliwoda:

Hi there,

my PDF layout has already a table of content.   
I'm now trying to change the toc selector to be able to show only headings with h2 format.

Is it possible to determine minlevel of toc exactly like in the macro?

Cheers,

Lina


Answers:
author: Steffen Heller
body: About your first question:  
If you want to set a minlevel=3, meaning only h3 and less should be displayed in the toc but h1 and h2 not, you just define it in your PDF Export Stylesheet as:

```
div.toclvl0, div.toclvl1, div.toclvl2 {display: none;}
```

<br />

About your second question:

Sorry, I just don't understand it at all. Perhaps you can explain in different words?


author: Lina Poliwoda
body: hmm, thats pitty.

Your hint is not that what I'm searching for.

In our templates we have declared a div selector with a specific class for a specific page title.  
And this specific page title should now be displayed in in the table of content.

Is there a possibility to do this?

Cheers,

Lina


author: Steffen Heller
body: No, it is not possible like that.

But: To hide different levels of headings in the toc you can set div.toclvl0, div.toclvl1, div.toclvl2, a.s.o. to { display: none; }

Customized font for Cyrillic: bold no longer appears in PDF export
Asked by Nicolas Casel:

Hi all,

In order to display Cyrillic characters for PDF export, we upload our own .ttf file to replace the Confluence default one.

However, the PDF export generates a file with no bold character (on the contrary to Word export which works fine).

Any idea to resolve this? How could I find a font (.ttf file) which meets these "requirements"?

Thanks in advance,


Answers:
author: Nicolas Casel
body: Thanks @Steffen Heller and @Benoit Plet , it fits to my need.

I'm going to create my own .ttc file from 2 sources:

1) my customized .ttf

2) the default Confluence .ttf. About it, how can I get it?

comments: author: BenoitP
body: I used the "DejaVu" collection. It did a good job to cover special character. I have no clue about Cyrillic but it would worth trying it.


author: Nicolas Casel
body: Thanks for this suggestion, it works fine (Cyrillic characters and bold are displayed in pdf export).Also, I've created a .ttc thanks to this software:<http://fontforge.github.io/en-US/>


author: BenoitP
body: I had the exact same problem. Actually, what you need is not a single ttf but a ttc (collection of fonts). This ttc will embed all the versions of your font (bold, italic, etc). One could use fontforge to create it if not available.

comments: author: BenoitP
body: and you need to specify in your css:body,p,li,td,table,tr,.bodytext,.stepfield{ font-family: ConfluenceInstalledFont; }
