Stopped receiving email notification for edited pages
Asked by Mary Palancianu:

Hi,

In our space, we don't receive notification emails from pages we're watching. It only works when someone has been mentioned or when a new page has been published. But when a page is edited, we don't get notified.

We've checked our settings configuration in Confluence as described [in confluence](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/subscribe-to-email-notifications/) and it seems to be alright.

This is strange as it used to work until few months ago. We didn't have any changes to the space settings or any other change.

I went in the global configuration and I checked that email notifications are enabled.

I went to personal settings and also the email notifications are enabled.

We are team of 6 working in this space and none of us are getting email notifications when a page is edited. This is the only space we have as an organisation in Confluence.

The strange thing is that shortly after I posted this, the notification started to work. It worked for 2 days and now, again, we are not receiving any notification when a document is edited.

We use Gmail and Office 365 email server with standard configuration.

I created a page by copying an existing page and now can't edit it, what did I do wrong?
Asked by Jax Blunt:

I created a set of pages by copying an existing page tree. When I go to the root page, it shows that I created it. If I look at the page permissions, it shows that I can edit it (I am also a space admin). There's no edit option though. If I add myself again, the edit option appears. Is this a known bug/ feature? Is there anything I can do to avoid it happening - it's obviously not ideal.


Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Jax Blunt](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4982147) ,

as space admin, please go to Space Tools -\> Permissions -\> Restricted Pages and check page restrictions for the copied pages.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

comments: author: Jax Blunt
body: I see that the page is restricted and I'm not on the list there. So even though I'm on the list of editors that I see first off, the restrictions overrule this. Is this by design or a flaw? (It seems like a flaw quite frankly, if it says I can edit, I ought to be able to edit.)


author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Jax Blunt](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4982147) ,

restrictions are based on parent, if a specific page has not restriction defined otherwise page restrictions win on the parent ones.

I don't know your current configuration for that pages so I can't support you on that.

Fabio


author: Jax Blunt
body: Hm, the restrictions are to a group of people I'm not in, as I joined after the original page was set up. I'll have to have a look at whether page restrictions are a necessary inheritance. Thanks.


author: AAMIR ANSARI
body: Hi [@Jax Blunt](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4982147) ,

The `ancestor` table records the parent and descendant (child) relationship between pages. It is also used when determining whether a page will inherit view restrictions from a parent page.

Occasionally records in the ancestor table can become corrupted. The **Repair the Ancestors Table** scheduled job finds and automatically fixes problems in the ancestor's table in all current spaces. The job runs daily.

I would suggest you to go through the below link and check if its helps:

Can I edit pages through a Macro?
Asked by Chelsea DeWall:

There are two options to make this work I don't know how either are possible.

I have a macro for events that we have attended in the past and need people to comment on them, reflections on how the event was and if we should go again.

1. Can I have a table next to a Macro (on the same line) so that people can add comments?

2. Can you edit a page without opening it when you see it in a macro?


Answers:
author: Andy Gladstone
body: [@Chelsea DeWall](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5011901) welcome to the Atlassian Community.

Regarding your questions:

1. Users cannot comment on a macro.
   1. You can use the layout button to set up your page with columns, embed the macro in one column and then a comment section in the other column. This way users can click on the comments section and leave comments on the macro.
2. The only way to edit a page is to go into edit mode, unless users are commenting.

See screenshots below for how this would work. I hope this helps!

comments: author: Chelsea DeWall
body: Thank you! That's a great idea.

When I do this, the column is too small for all of the information and so people may have to scroll to the right. (not the end of the world) But, is there a way to freeze the first column?

Also, in the comment field on the right, theoretically, I could make it into a table so that the comments would be lined up with the page they are commenting about. When I put the table in, the size is very off.

How do you Copy a space?
Asked by Maria Jo?o Gon?alves:

Hi,

In my company we have Confluence Cloud Standard, and we need to replicate 1 space.

Considering that we only need to perform a single operation, can we do it for free?

What is the best solution for doing this copy, without being page by page and ideally without costs per users?

Thanks


Answers:
author: Rilwan Ahmed
body: Hi [@Maria Jo?o Gon?alves](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4350006)

Confluence Cloud, Server, and Data Center **do not** provide a method for copying a space or changing the space key.

**Workaround** :   
1. Create a new space and copy pages from old Space to new Space  
2. Use any marketplace apps

Support for Mermaid in Draw.io for Confluence
Asked by Alok Bhargava:

Hello,

I would like to know if the draw.io integration for Confluence supports the Mermaid (or any other) markdown capability as described here:

author: Bastian -drawio Diagrams-
body: Hi Alok. The Mermaid syntax is supported by draw.io for Confluence Cloud. So if the syntax that you created is correct, it will generate a Mermaid diagram inside of draw.io. To insert Mermaid syntax, please go Arrange \> Insert \> Advanced \> Mermaid.


author: Francisco Capllonch Alcover
body: Hi Bastian,

I'm using the Confluence API rest <https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/confluence-server-rest-api/> to update some of our Pages and I'm interested in updating some mermaid diagrams created with draw.io. The problem is that those diagrams are inserted into the pages as some external object that can not be updated directly with the API.

Can you suggest some solution to this? maybe using another mermaid pluggin?


author: Bastian -drawio Diagrams-
body: Hi Francisco. It's unfortunately not possible to update the diagrams via API, you have to adapt th existing Mermaid code or insert a new Mermaid diagram.

Quick search - are regional special characters problematic?
Asked by Holmgren, Johanna:

My team uses a quick search panel to find specific words on wiki pages that we want to edit. When searching the English pages for an English word like allerg**y** , the search also finds "allerg**ies** ". However, when searching the Swedish pages for a Swedish word, v?rdkontakt, the search will not find the plural version (v?rdkontakt**er**).

If I search for v?rdkontakt**\*** , I only get two hits (one for v?rdkontakter and one for v?rdkontaktsinformation) although I know for a fact that there are many more. If I search for v**\*** rdkontakt**\***, I get 72 hits (including v?rdkontaktsinformation and v?rdkontaktstyp).

v**?** rdkontakt**\*** will also produce 72 hits.

Would Swedish special characters like ?, ?, ? interfere with the proper behavior of the search?


Answers:
author: Sloan Niklas Becker
body: Hi [@Holmgren, Johanna](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5052985)

Import attachement from a directory backup (not confluence backup)
Asked by Yacine Landolsi:

Hello,

Some users have deleted attachements from a page and purged the trash bin and i wanted to restore them.

We did not use the confluence backup option as we backup our servers regularly.

I managed to restore the correct repository from a server backup where the attachements were stored according to <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/hierarchical-file-system-attachment-storage-704578486.html> .

I have tried to copy paste the deleted files that i have retrived from my backup to the corresponding folder but i can not see them on the attachment list of the page once done.

Am i missing something ?

Best regards,

Yacine LANDOLSI.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the community!

You need to tell the pages that they have attachments.

Attachments are not just files, Confluence needs metadata like the filename, author, upload date, etc, so that it can version and report on them.

You will need to work out what each file was, and re-attach it via the UI.

Allow Google search even restricted articles
Asked by PM TechArchitecture Team:

Is there any way to allow Google search even for restricted articles?

I have two spaces:

* Space A
  * Allow anonymous access
  * Contains articles completely opened \& restricted to some users
* Space B
  * Accessible only for user X

I want to encourage the anonymous users to be curious about the restricted articles in space A.

But It seems Google search can crawl only opened articles.

Is there any idea to allow Google search can crawl the restricted articles? But the articles in space B must not crawled.


Answers:
author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: So, in space A you want to make some content available for certain users and for Google, but not for anonymous and for other users.

For that, Google would need to be able to authenticate itself as one of the users for which you allow the content. That is just not possible.

To me, this whole model doesn't make sense.

Maybe a better way would be to have two variants of the same content in space A:

1. The full one, restricted to certain users.
2. A shorter version, completely open for anyone, including anonymous, Google, etc. This would indexable by Google and could generate interest for the full one.

comments: author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: I agree with this.

You are saying you want your content to be hidden from some of your people, but visible to the rest of the world.

That makes no sense, and there's nothing to stop your people pretending to not be part of your organisation.

It would be better to simply let your people see the pages you've currently hidden from them.


author: PM TechArchitecture Team
body: Hello, Aron and Nic.

Thank you for your reply. I think I missed telling detail.

I just mean that allows the Google search only, and when anonymous people click the search result, people are redirected to the login page. So they are encouraged to login our knowledge base.

Is it impossible?


author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: I understood your desired outcome correctly (probably Nic did, as well), but this is not possible. You cannot show your content for the Google crawler, but hide it for the world.

(I still think that the alternative approach I suggested, using "include" macros and such, would work.)


author: PM TechArchitecture Team
body: I agree with your alternative approach no.2. It is a good idea.

Thank you for your confirmation that my question is not possible.

Pages in Confluence becoming too slow when editing them. This mainly happens when you have large pages (but not too large, e.g 9 minute read).

I do not have this problem when using Google Docs with much larger documents.

* [Break down document into smaller sections](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Slow-Response-while-editing-large-document/qaq-p/1889642)
