How do I restart the page numbering after the Table of Contents in the PDF export?
Asked by Anna McDonald:

I want the page numbering to begin after the Table of Contents on the PDF export. The Title Page and Table of Contents page(s) should not be counted. For example, I want to export a pair of pages in a small section that total 3 PDF pages. The Title Page and Table of Contents pages add 2 pages, making the PDF itself 5 pages long. The kicker is that the Title Page and Table of Contents pages should not be counted in the page numbering in the footer of the PDF. The layout is as follows:

* Title Page
* Table of Contents Page
* 3 Content Pages

The content pages are where the numbering should begin. I want those pages to begin at page 1 and not page 3. How can I fix this in the stylesheet? I cannot find any answers. I think I should be able to use a counter-reset, but I cannot get it to work. Thoughts?

P.S. It looks like someone asked a little over a year ago and never received an answer: <https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/138335>


Answers:
author: Steffen Heller
body: As already said in the other thread, "counter-reset" seems to be ignored for "counter(page)".

It works for self defined counters, though. For example, if you create your own numbers for headings and want it to start with "42", you can achieve it with this:

```
body {counter-reset: myOwnHeader 41;}h2:before {content: counter(myOwnHeader) ". ";counter-increment: myOwnHeader;}
```

You could somewhat recreate that for your case.

1) Add this to your stylesheet:

```
/* create a counter "myPageNo" and define its initial value 3 */body {counter-reset: myPageNo 3;}/* create a class "MyPageNoText": set its position and what it will display */.MyPageNoText { position: running(PageNo); }.MyPageNoText:before {content: "this is page " counter(myPageNo);counter-increment: myPageNo;}/* position the class on the PDF page */@page {@bottom-right { content: element(PageNo); }}
```

2) Add an empty "span" or "div" macro to your wiki page and set the "Class" to "MyPageNoText".

This will add a "this is page 4/5/6..." to the bottom of your pages, starting at that point where you include the class (include it on page 3 and the first two pages won't have no page numbers at all).

I tested it. It works!  
But nobody would really do it like that :wink:.

Is there an HTML "substitute" in Confluence Cloud?
Asked by Dan Moran:

We're converting from downloaded Confluence 3.5.7 to Confluence Cloud, but our 3.5.7 pages use a lot of HTML code for list alignment and within panels to create unispace font. Is there any acceptable substitute for HTML usage in Confluence Cloud?


Answers:
author: Adrien Ragot 2
body: Not directly, but:

* I've heard [Adaptavist's add-on](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.adaptavist.confluence.contentFormattingMacros) has a system for HTML insertion. I haven't tried it myself. Tell us about your feedback!
* I've created [CYO Create Your Own](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.playsql.createyourown) to insert HTML/javascript content in pages, with the limitation that OnDemand add-ons are embedded using an iframe.

Good luck!

comments: author: Charisma Riley
body: I have a question about your CYO plugin when you have a chance?


author: Davin Studer
body: Nope. The OnDemand offering is quite locked down. You cannot install many of the add-ons in the marketplace and the options that allow you to customize Confluence in the server version are not available in the OnDemand version.


author: Tim
body: Hi @Daniel Moran,

We've created a HTML macro as part of our toolbox of useful Confluence Cloud macros. It lets you securely embed any custom HTML and JS into any Confluence page or blog.

Try it here: <https://marketplace.atlassian.com/1215202>

Keen to know if it helps you out :smile:

comments: author: David Sumich
body: The link above doesn't seem to point to anything useful, unless I am ignorant of what is on that page.


author: Joe McGlynn
body: David, I think what that page is saying is that it's already in Jira Cloud, you don't have to add it. Which is true. But it doesn't actually work with the new Confluence page format that you get when you create s page. It might work in an old style page.


author: Dan Moran
body: Hi Davin,

If I understand correctly, OnDemand Confluence also does not let me use HTML for Layouts or in Custom HTML. Is that right?

Thanks,

Dan

CustomWare Visibility Plugin licence issue
Asked by sukh ram:

Hi,

We have migraded confluence 3.1.1 and now using 5.4.4 version. we are gettting issue on some space. below error is comming when trying to access some space.

The license could not be verified: There is no license certificate installed for CustomWare Visibility Plugin for Confluence.

I downloaded visibility-plugin and also licence for it from marke place. I uploaded visibility-plugin in confluence 5.4.4 version.

**Please let me know how to upload or install licence which I already downloaded for visibility-plugin.**


Answers:
author: Suren Raj
body: Hello Sukh,

The Visibility Plugin is a third-party plugin offered by service rocket. Since you installed the license on Confluence, the product should work as expected, but the license may be causing the verification error you described. I would ask that you contact their support staff to ensure that there are no issues with the license itself. You can contact their support staff using the following link: <https://www.servicerocket.com/contact/>

How to define an input for a template
Asked by winklerrr:

Hello,

When I create a page with the default blueprint template "How-To", confluence opens up a window and wants me to fill in information about the title of the how to and corresponding labels.

So my question is now how I can also do this for my self created templates?

I want the creater of page have to fill out some fields which I then want to use in my template for example as page title, as labels and also as parameter for some macros.

Regards


Answers:
author: Steven F Behnke
body: Pardon me, you asked about that form that pops up when you make a new blueprint page.

See, those popup forms dont have a way to be programmed inside of confluence. You need to custom develop it (little bit of java, some html, css, javascript, etc. webapp stuff ) and install it as an add-on, which you cant do as OnDemand. (You only have pre-installed plugins due to the nature of atlassians cloud setup)

What you can do is add new blueprint templates, this can change some of the prebuilt page that is added when you use a blueprint.


author: Steven F Behnke
body: Hello. Those functions are known as Blueprints. Currently in order to add a new blueprint (not just modify the templates under Global Templates, you can modify templates on Cloud or Server) you would need to develop one and package it as an add-on, and install it on your confluence server. However, since you are on Atlassian On-Demand, you will not be able to install new add-ons so this advice doesn't help you.

A list of restricted functions on AOD are listed here: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/AOD/Restricted+Functions+in+Atlassian+OnDemand>

I want to customize my child pages
Asked by Gunjan Sood:

Hi,

My requirement is as follows:

1) I have created a space. In that space, I have some pages, which I want to organize as follows:

a. Space name -- master filed

b. Story name -- sub-master filed

c. task name ( which includes validations etc .) -- page filed

Please let me know how I can create this hierarchy.


Answers:
author: Adrien Ragot 2
body: This question is a duplicate of "<https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/9378745>".

Pages have child pages. When you click the Create button, the new page is placed as a child of the current page. So:

* Go to the home page of your space,
* Click the create button and choose "Blank page",
* Set the title "Name of a story".

You can see the direct children of a page in the left sidebar. You can also configure the sidebar to display a full tree of the children/subchildren pages.

If you want to rearrange the hierarchy of pages, click the "Pages" link in the left sidebar, then find the "Browse and Reorder all pages" on the right. Then you can drag'n'drop pages to structure them the way you want.

How do I install Confluence after JIRA?
Asked by Jose Cordero:

I have a Server with Win2008R2 and SQLServer and I installed JIRA. Now, I want to install Confluence in the same server but after the installation, the JIRA is OK but the Confluence do not open.


Answers:
author: Adrien Ragot 2
body: First things first:

* Did you complete the Confluence setup? In the setup they ask whether the user directory should be internal or linked with JIRA, did you choose the second option?
* After this setup, Confluence should work standalone. Does it? Which URL are you looking at? Did you check the port and context path ? (such as <http://localhost:8080/confluence,> for example)
* Once Confluence works, you need to [create an Applink with JIRA](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Linking+to+Another+Application). Then you can link issues and pages.

body: HI Masashi,

It seems that Ondemand cannot change the subdomain after the creation. I could find another question of the same subject here: <https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/46188>

As a workaround, you could delete your account and ask the sales team to create the new one using the name you'd like. make sure to have the instance backups before asking your instance to be removed.

Version Control for Templates
Asked by Greg Dungca:

We're in the midst of testing out Confluence and so we're creating templates for our internal documents. I'm surprised that there is no version control feature for templates -- similar to the version control used for pages.

Am I just not seeing it? Are there any extensions (free?) that can achieve this?


Answers:
author: Davin Studer
body: So, templates actually are versioned. It's just not easy to get at them. However you can see the versions if you have database access. They are in the PAGETEMPLATES table.


author: Andrii Tkachenko [BeastieHut]
body: Hello [@Greg Dungca](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/677296).

It can be used to control Confluence page templates history.

After I upgrading Confluence from 5.4.4 to 5.6.3, micro code doesn't work.
Asked by Shih-Liang Lin:

HI :

After I upgrading Confluence from 5.4.4 to 5.6.3, not only micro code can't find in the insert micro, but also all my previous pages that use micro code all show "Unknown macro: 'code'"

what should I do to show all the code.

thank you


Answers:
author: Septa Cahyadiputra
body: Judging from the symptom, it seems that the Code Macro Plugin is currently disabled. Could you please check it under your UPM (Manage Add-On), choose "System Plugin" and see whether Code Macro is enabled or not.

This plugin could be disabled during the upgrade process due to multiple reason such as initialization time out.

Hope it helps.

comments: author: Septa Cahyadiputra
body: Not a problem at all, it is my pleasure :).


author: R Donato
body: Have you tried re-installing the macro? That usually fixes the issue. It's also a good idea to note the macros you have before you do an upgrade and check it against what list after the upgrade. There are always a few macros that need to be installed.

How to improve Confluence page load with many gliffy diagrams?
Asked by JulioV:

We use Gliffy for Confluence extensively and have some pages that have many gliffy diagrams on a single confluence page. Coincidentally those pages that have many gliffy diagrams (5+) are very slow to load?

It appears that pages that are loading slowly are using the gxml instead of png, as we can see the gliffy being rendered as object by object within the gliffy.

How do we ensure the png is used instead of gxml for displaying of page? Or is there a setting that we can change that helps these pages load faster?


Answers:
author: Mike Cialowicz
body: Hi Julio,

You can get faster page loads by disabling the Gliffy HTML5 viewer, which will force diagrams to render as PNG images in Confluence. To do this, click the gear icon in the top-right corner of Confluence, and click "Add-ons". Then on the left side of the page navigate to the "Gliffy Plugin" section, click "Configuration", and then check the "Disable HTML5 Viewer" box. Note that this will disable some of the interactive functions that the HTML5 viewer facilitates.

Let us know if you have any other questions.

Does anyone know a better workaround then disabling the HTML5 viewer globally?


author: JulioV
body: Thanks Mike for the response, I made the changes and noticed maybe a slight improvement. Then we recently upgraded to Gliffy 6.3.2 and noticed a substantial improvement so likely some of the slowness when viewing pages with many or large diagrams was fixed in that release.

Office connector Plugin in 5.6.3?
Asked by IT Support:

I'm intending to upgrade our Confluence 5.4.1 install to 5.6.3. When I run the plugin compatibility check, it says that the Office Connector plugin is not compatible.

IIRC, this is an Atlassian supplied plugin...seems like it should always be compatible with the released version?

Can somebody please confirm? Thanks.


Answers:
author: Chander Inguva
body: Hi @Septa Cahyadiputra \[Atlassian\],

Where can I find the jar files for Office Connector Plugin ?


author: Mallmann
body: Hey there,

Yes, as Septa Cahyadiputra just answered, this plugin is working with the latest version as well, so you do not need to worry.

I have just requested an update on the marketplace for this plugin, so that the information will validate what we're saying here. :smile:

Please, let us know if you have any questions.

Cheers,

Eduardo Mallmann  


author: Septa Cahyadiputra
body: Hi there,

Sorry for the confusion. You are indeed correct, Office Connector plugin is a bundled plugin and will always be compatible when you upgrade your Confluence as it will use the bundled plugin that comes with your new version. The compatibility checker check your current version and see whether it is compatible with the current release based on Marketplace data.

Please not to worry, when you upgrade your instance, it should be loaded with the latest office connector version that comes with the bundled plugins from the new version.

Hope it clarifies.

Cheers,  
Septa Cahyadiputra

One image, Many Pages
Asked by Patrick Leyland:

Hi there,   

I'm newer to Confluence, just recently got the licence. I'm looking for hopefully an easier workaround for my dilemma.   
The layout our team is working on will have a master list of art assets. Each image will be used on multiple pages across the space. Is there any way to have all of the images change if you change the "master" image without having to replace this image with the exact same file name? I was hoping to avoid replacing fully simply for archiving previous design ideas.  

Thanks,  

- Patrick.


Answers:
author: Stephanie Arnaud
body: Hi Patrick,

I would like to make sure I understand your problem correctly. Do you mean that you would like to add a new version of an image on this master page (without having to use the exact same filename) and have it update all Confluence pages where this image appears?

Also, could you please tell me which version of Confluence you are on and if it is an OnDemand instance or Behind The Firewall instance?

Thanks!

Stephanie
