Checklists - "Copy items from.." simplification?
Asked by Chuck Rogers:

I use checklists alot. Is there a way set a few specific lists and eliminate the rest from drop-down? I have 3 I use regularly and when I have to choose them from the "Copy Items From..." button I have to scroll through every one I've ever made to try and find it. Would love to have just a few preset lists show up instead of every single one (if theres a way hopefully). Thanks


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Chuck Rogers](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2740435) prepend the name of the card/list in which your template checkilsts reside with a "." so they appear at the top of the list

Checklist Sync on Work in progress board throguh API
Asked by Bhavik Shah:

Hi all,

Thanks for spending time for reading my issue.

I have create one work in progress board and in that board I sync all my card.

I copy the cards from different boards into the work in progress board. For checklist if anybody check the checklist item in project board then it should also reflect to work in progress board for the user. And same if user check the checklist item from the work in progress board it should reflect to the project board. In card there may be many members. While copying the cards how can I get the list of the checklist item?

I am wondering how can I achieved this through the API.

is there a way to retrieve work previouisly saved?
Asked by Rachael Speight:

yesterday i started a new board with 7 lists and cards under each. within each card was detailed descriptions from a full day's work.

later that night I tried to open this on my phone and didn't see any of the descriptions within the cards... but figured it was a phone ap thing that I don't know how to use yet.

then today I opened the board to discover only ONE card contained the descript content I wrote (which happened to be the first card on the first list) and that is ALL!

I definitely saved and then reopened cards to double check for safety before moving on to the next card content. so I believe it was saving as I went along.

Please help or any advice will be great,ky aoorecueated

including other suggestions of how to use Trello and the content boxes within.

thank you

is:open showing completed cards
Asked by anesthesi:

Hello,

In the main screen I wish to see a list of all my non-completed cards.

Selecting "@name is:open" seems like a reasonable choice.

Yet, it shows all cards that are assigned to me, even though these cards were moved to "Done", and their Due Date had passed and was marked as completed.

So how can I see a list of all my open cards?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@anesthesi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2736835) the "is:open" won't show archived cards. If you want to exclude cards that are in the list Done and that have a completed due date you can use:

@me -list:"Done" -due:complete

Note the "-" sign to negate the conditions. You can see more about Trello's search parameters here:

<https://help.trello.com/article/808-searching-for-cards-all-boards>

body: The "-" sign is indeed what I was missing.


author: Jodi LeBlanc
body: Hi [@anesthesi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2736835) you may find this article useful, and if you sort by date your done cards should not appear.

Is there a limit to how many boards you can make?
Asked by katie chase:

Is there a limit to how many Trello boards you can make? I keep clicking to make a new board and it will not let me. But I can adjust the ones I have...


Answers:
author: marc -Collabello--Phase Locked-
body: [@katie chase](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2719515)You can have up to 4500 boards per member (and up to 1600 members per board).


author: Marty
body: Hi Katie,

I am not on the Trello team but will try and help.

How many boards do you have currently?

comments: author: katie chase
body: 32


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@katie chase](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2719515) you can certainly have more than 32, I have like 500 ;)

There's no published limit although eventually you may find certain elements of the interface load very slowly if you had thousands. There might also be some unpublished limit past which Trello won't allow you to create new boards but it wouldn't be 32.

Where are you clicking to make a new board and in what way is it not letting you? Are you seeing an error message for example?
"Edit Macro" options for drawio
Asked by Andrew Townsend:

With drawio diagrams there used to be an Edit Macro option to change the layout, the positioning of the toolbar etc...

In the cloud instance there's now a little config icon to click on in the tool bar, but if you hide the toolbar, how then to you then get to the edit macro options? (and even reshow the toolbar??)


Answers:
author: marc -Collabello--Phase Locked-
body: When you edit the page, you can click on the macro and see an edit button. Is that what you want to achieve?

comments: author: Andrew Townsend
body: No that is not at all what I want to achieve.

When you edit the page and click on the macro you get two options "Edit" and "Remove", and "Edit" starts up Drawio on the diagram.

I don't wang to edit the diagram, I want to edit the confluence macro. On the on-prem version there was "Edit Macro" as well.

Is there some secret incantation in the cloud version?

If not just how is it supposed to work?

Lock page with pincode
Asked by Jana J?ger:

Hello,

we are working with different confluence spaces. At one Space I would like to add a pincode to a page so it can just be accessed with that code.

As this is an open space I cannot just work with permissions here.

I don't think that it's possible but maybe one of you has a solution for this case or a similar request ;)

Thanks a lot

How I can choose a @user in a template variable?
Asked by Guy Hutchison:

I am trying to create a project template where it has a number of tasks that are assigned by default to a specific user. I'd like to have the template creator put the task owner in a template variable and then have it replicated.

When I use a template text variable, I can put in the [@User Name](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4247083) but it simply takes it as text rather than converting it to a user mention.

Any way to get a text input to convert to a mention?


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Guy Hutchison](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4304964) You can only add the @mentions into the template. For instance if you had an agenda template and you want to have 5 people as mentions on the agenda template then you could add them.

Not finding Jira issue
Asked by Nicolas Vannieuwenhuyse:

Hi

I have written down documentation on an atlassian cloud page. For this documentation, I would like to refer to an existing ticket on Jira.  
But when searching for the ticket using the add jira ticket popup, it always gives an error message saying it cannot find the ticket. So I can't link to documentation and vice versa.

Does this also happen to you or how did you solve this?

Hi Nicolas

welcome to the Atlassian community.

Just did a quick check, works fine on my instance.

Just to be on the safe side, you do have access to the corresponding Jira project and issues?

If yes, did you try simple copy the url of the jira issue into your confluence page like

<https://YOURDOMAIN.atlassian.net/browse/ISSUEID-1>. Does that work?

How do I reuse the name of a closed draw.io diagram, the diagram that doesn't appear in my page
Asked by quangth2:

I inserted a new draw.io diagram into my confluence page, named it, and then accidently closed it (not have any input content yet, just stop at created step). That diagram also does not appear in my page.

After that, I insert a new diagram, and naming it as the same old one, but it said that I cannot do that because the diagram already exists.

So my question is, is it possible to delete the old one completely (even though I don't see its existence in my page), or reopen it and continue to edit? I don't want to change the name, because I have a strict naming convention. Breaking it really makes my skin itch


Answers:
author: Marija Radovic
body: Hi,

Did you click "Create" after you named it? How did you close it? (clicked Canceled/closed whole tab or other)

Was the Confluence page previously published or not?

What browser version are you using? What draw.io version? (can be seen under Help)

Thanks,

Marija

draw.io support

comments: author: Andrew Townsend
body: Hi

Have a look at the page attachments. That's where drawio stores it, and by default the macro just uses the filename to find the correct attachment.

If it has stored it already there'll be two files, one for the drawio and a PNG used to render the page, with the name you used which could stop you reusing it.

If you're sure you're not using them (no other drawio on the page) you can delete the attachments - then drawio should let you reuse that name.

(if you're unsure you can always download the attachments first)

body: indeed, thank you Andrew!

How does the selection of a release track influence the updates for products that dont have a track
Asked by Admin Account:

Greetings,

im currently trying out the rather new "Release Track" option for the standard and premium licenses, and have a question pertaining to impact of the choice of said release track for a product.

In my example, im testing the release track function for Confluence (Cloud), having set the track to "Bundled". Meanwhile, my Jira is still set to "Continuous", Jira being on a "Free" license currently. See also attached screenshot:

![1.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/147021iFE3836968E1A2A5E/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "1.png")

My question now is: How are the changes that relate to the general "Atlassian Cloud" rolled out under this context?

* Will they be bundled together with the changes that will be rolled out to my Confluence Cloud?
* Or will Atlassian Cloud changes be rolled out continuously, just as they always have?

The importance of this question lies within the fact that we need to write a potential validation concept, and while the release track function helps creating a more practical cadence of re-validations of the Confluence Cloud, we still might need to always check for updates that are being rolled out to the Atlassian Cloud, that could affect the validated status of our Confluence Cloud.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Admin Account](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4424931)

I believe that the actual general cloud updates will be applied continuously. The changes should not impact your applications.
