Unable to create new page in Confluence
Asked by Dharani:

Hi Team,

I have integrated Confluence with IIS. After IIS integration, when I try to create a new page it is loading for long time and showing an error as "Something went wrong after loading the editor. Copy your unsaved changes and refresh the page to keep editing." or "This page is taking longer to load than usual. Give it a few moments, then try refreshing. Still having issue? Contact your Confluence admin".

Kindly help me to resolve this.

Thanks

body: Hi Davin,

Thanks for the reply. I have referred the same link you given above and did all configuration as given in that link. But still I'm unable to create or edit pages in my confluence.


author: Davin Studer
body: I remember that we had that issue as well at one time. We also added this java runtime parameter which is not in the article above.

**-Dsynchrony.proxy.enabled=true**

Make sure this one is enabled too ... which is in the articel above.

**-Dorg.apache.tomcat.websocket.DISABLE_BUILTIN_EXTENSIONS=true**


author: Dharani
body: I have added the above given parameter and restarted the service, but still facing the same issue. For your information, we are having confluence installed in one server and IIS running on anther server.

Without the IIS proxy, I'm able to create and edit pages. Kindly help me to resolve this.

Error: Failed to get macro details
Asked by Jose Tristao:

Pages in Confluence that have tables are buggy as hell. I have received this error message several times: Failed to get macro details. And the page won't load. Also it takes forever to load the page and it constantly times out when trying to go into edit mode.

Can someone please tell me what is the issue.

Thank you.

Jos?

body: Hi [@Jose Tristao](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2799570) ,

We've discovered the same issue. What macro do you use on this page?

comments: author: Jose Tristao
body: Sorry, didn't get any notices that there were any replies to my post so didn't come back here.

I was using the "Table Filter" Macro. The problem is that I was attaching PDF documents on one of the Columns on the table. After I removed that column the error stopped. Also this Macro doesn't handle too well tables with too many rows.


author: Andrey Khaneev _StiltSoft_
body: This happens when there is "too much" content inside the macro. There is a 2MB limit for the macro content size in the new editor in Confluence Cloud. If the content is greater, the macro won't even try to render and will show the message.

At the same time, it works fine in the legacy editor that has no limits.


author: Gian Israel Nampi
body: Hi [@Jose Tristao](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2799570)

1. Have you installed any macro apps in your confluence? if yes can you check if it has a new update or the evaluation period has expired?
2. Did you create the page your self or was imported from other source?
3. Macro usage might be helpful. go to Settings -\> Administration -\> Macro Usage.
4. You can also configure the default theme and language. Go to Settings -\> Configuration -\> Configure Code Macro.
5. You can integrate or add Macro apps using the marketplace. go to Settings -\> Atlassian MarketPlace -\> Find new Apps.

Thank you.

I want to switch back to Legacy editor
Asked by V-G:

Hi,

Im setting up a wiki for myself (cloud) and one for my company (server).

I would like to use on both the legacy editor.

How can I set up the server to the legacy editor?

How can I get the legacy editor on the cloud version Im using right now?

My Main issue with the re-formating of any document/image as a link (or position on the page, its really messy).

Any help?

Thanks a lot!

Server doesn't have the new editor, so you should be fine there. :)

comments: author: V-G

However, after some digging, the "Blank page (old) (going away soon)" is not showing on my account. I searched the whole list, but no luck. Do you have any clue as of why?

Thanks a lot for your help.


author: Matt Reiner [K15t]
body: Hmmm, that I don't know. Atlassian can probably help you out though.


author: Davin Studer
body: The server and data center versions do not use the new fabric editor. As for Cloud you would have to talk with Atlassian support to see if that is even possible. I'm not sure that it is.

comments: author: Davin Studer
body: Looks like you may need to contact Atlassian support to get the legacy editor template enabled if you do not have it.

Collect and sync pages in multiple spaces into one space
Asked by Ryota Hashimoto:

Hello,

Are there any handy ways to bring all pages from multiple spaces into one unified space without manual copy operations?

I'm planning just copying all pages by hands for the moment, and sync manually when updates happened on original pages.

Thanks,


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Ryota,

Thank you for raising this with us. Happy to help.

I understand that you're not looking to merge spaces, but rather, display information from multiple spaces into one space. Is that right?

You can use the [Include Page macro](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-include-page-macro/), which will include the content of a referenced page on a new page. When you update the original page, the content will be updated in all referenced pages.

Otherwise, there might be an add-on on [Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=confluence&query=space) that could help you with this. It would be worth having a look.

I hope this helps, but do let me know if you have any questions about it.

Take care,

Shannon

comments: author: Ryota Hashimoto
body: Hello Shannon, thank you for your advice.

Actually I'd like to copy pages to a new space and archive old ones, for the ease of manage. After copying, contents replacement should occur. So I'm afraid Include Page macro have slightly different purpose for that.

I will search for add-ons.

Thanks.


author: Shannon S
body: Hi Ryota,

I understand now. Thank you for clarifying that. What would be easier for you is instead of having to [copy one page at a time](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/move-copy-and-hide-pages/), is to bulk copy pages, which isn't possible within Confluence itself.

Something like [one of these add-ons](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=cloud&product=confluence&query=copy%20page) could help with that. It's also possible to script using an add-on like [ScriptRunner for Confluence Cloud](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215215/scriptrunner-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview).

If you have any questions, you can ask in the Marketplace Apps collection here on Community; many of the Marketplace vendors are on-hand to answer your questions.

Take care, and have a pleasant rest of your week.

I create pages, edit pages, but my name does not appear in Insights.

Thank you in advance!

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you!

It sounds like something has gone out-of-sync on your Cloud site, and this can usually be resolved by a reindexing or re-associating of your user.

We'll need to do this for you in Support. You can report this issue to your Cloud Site Admin, and then they can raise the ticket [with Cloud Support](http://support.atlassian.com/contact).

I hope that this resolves the issue for you!

Take care, and have a pleasant rest of your week.

How do I add users to DI2E so they can access a project wiki site I created?
Asked by Allen Couture:

I am a Department of Navy user. I am an admin for a project site. I recently created a wiki for an integrated product team. Not all the team members are on DI2E. How do I add the members to the DI2E so they can have access to the wiki. All members are Department of Navy government.


Answers:
author: Allen Couture
body: Thank you for the guidance. I advised the team to sign up for a DI2E account from the login page and provided them my site key. Thus far, I have received no issues from any of the team with establishing the DI2E account. I do not know how long they need to wait for their account to become activated but once activated they should be able to reach the wiki site I established.

comments: author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: There's no "activation" or delay (unless your organisation has created one). They should be signing up and be straight in.


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: You'll need to ask the space administrators to add people to the spaces, or people/site admins to add them to the right groups.

comments: author: Allen Couture
body: I am listed as a space admin but I do not know how to add people to the site that are not already part of the DI2E community. How does the rest of the team gain access to DI2E? Is access to DI2E something they need to do or something someone else needs to initiate for them?


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: I cannot tell you what your processes for adding new people are. I'm nothing to do with your organisation, I don't know what you have got set up for user provisioning. Same goes for the rest of us - we have software in common, but most of us don't have any access to or knowledge of your systems.
Configuring the space.admin decorator.
Asked by Diana Bianco:

So I've been following the <https://developer.atlassian.com/server/confluence/writing-a-space-admin-screen/#before-you-begin> tutorial and for some reason the plugin I'm trying to implement it will upload but it wont enable. I think I'm having issues understanding how to configure the decorator. What I've done is put a space.admin.html document in my resources\\templates folder. I dont think this is correct. I'm following the first section of the tutorial as I am running confluence 7.5.

Confluence searches returning no results
Asked by Rob Forbes:

Whenever I attempt to search the wiki regardless of the search term I use I get no results found. This happens with both the quick search and the advanced search. I have no filters set on the advanced search. If I click the option to search archived pages I get plenty of results. Teammates using the same search terms get results without issue, even without choosing the include archived pages. Am I missing something? Is there someplace to set permanent filters that I inadvertantly set?

Thanks


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Rob,

Welcome to Atlassian Community! It's nice to meet you.

Sounds like you're running into this bug:

* [CONFCLOUD-69860](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-69860) *Search Results not Complete*

It appears that we nearly have a fix for this bug out, but it's still being reviewed right now. In the meantime, there's a workaround that Support can do that will resolve the issue for your specific user. You'll need to have your administrator [raise a Support Ticket](http://support.atlassian.com/contact) so we can reassociate your user in the system

Let me know if you have any trouble with that, or any questions at all.

How do I rename a confluence page using the api?
Asked by ssbaker:

Try as I might, I can't find this in the docs. I have a series of pages that I would like to rename. There are hundreds, and what needs to be done (remove the last word in the title) is very simple, so I was hoping to automate it.

What is the secret?


Answers:

body: Found it! I kept seeing the process for updating content and glossing it over because I wasn't thinking of the title as content...

comments: author: Dominic Lagger
body: can you share how you did it?   
I'm stuck with the same problem now...

Thanks


author: Nick
body: I use atlassian-python-api to manipulate Confluence pages, here is my example for page moving to another parent with renaming, you can use my idea to understand how it works:

```
# Old page title
old_title = 'Beautiful Page Title'

# Title that you want to change to
new_title = f"Much More {old_title}" 

# Title of parent page where you want to move page to
parent_title = 'New Home'

# Get ID for new parent page
parent_id = confluence.get_page_id(space=space, title=parent_title)

# Get old page contents
old_page_content = confluence.get_page_by_title(space=space, title=old_title, expand='body') # Old page contents

# Rename and move page, get updated content
new_page_content = confluence.update_page(old_page_content['id'], title=new_title, body=old_page_content['body'], parent_id=parent_id, type="page", representation="storage")

How can I suppress notifications of my own edits on Slack?
Asked by Andrew Tergis:

My team is using Confluence Cloud to enable Slack notifications. This is great! I have enabled all Slack Notifications on a Space that I maintain (Edits, Comments, +Child Pages). These notifications are routed directly to my personal channel (@\<my slack username\>). However i've noticed that I will also get a slack notification from my own edits and comments.

I find this to be highly distracting. Every time I make a quick edit I now also need to click over into slack to clear the notification I just generated.

Is there any way to suppress my own edits or comments?


Answers:
author: Daniel Eads
body: Hi Andrew, welcome to the Community!

I understand exactly what you mean - I'm glad you find the Confluence integration helpful but know that getting notified on your own actions can be distracting.

There's currently no option to change the behavior with the integration, but [we do have an open feature request](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/API-249) to add an option toggling the notifications for your own actions. Voting on this feature request will help prioritize it with other features people are asking for.

Thanks!  
Daniel

comments: author: Andrew Tergis
body: Thanks for bringing the feature request to my attention! Voted!

I'm a strong proponent of using Slack for the majority of Confluence notifications, which are often transient, quickly deprecated messages. No use having them fill up an inbox.

Page Properties Access Via API
Asked by charlie_gavins:

I would love to be able to access the page properties macro for an individual page, via REST API. It seems it MAY be possible using masterdetail: I get the following JSON from this GET request:

[https://www.example.org/rest/masterdetail/1.0/detailssummary/lines?cql=id={myID}\&spaceKey={myPUB](https://www.example.org/rest/masterdetail/1.0/detailssummary/lines?cql=id={myID}&spaceKey={myPUB)}

```
{ "currentPage": 0, 
"totalPages": 1, 
"renderedHeadings": 
[ "Audio Code(s)", 
"Event Date", 
"<p xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">Event Location</p>", 
"Event Name", 
"Notes", 
"Proof-read By", 
"Proofed By", 
"Transcribed By", 
"Transcript Status" ], 
"detailLines": [], 
"asyncRenderSafe": false}
```

I have seen someone with same issue here, unanswered in SO:

<https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62327802/get-page-properties-using-confluence-rest-api#>

And some discussion here:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/How-to-retrieve-metadata-from-Page-Properties-using-REST-API/qaq-p/468443>

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Is-there-a-rest-api-to-post-the-page-properties/qaq-p/814823#U1416216>

I would love to update page properties with a new field, and then batch update all pages with this. It's perhaps possible but there is no documentation on the 'masterdetail' section of the API.

Anyone with any thoughts on a workaround would be much appreciated!

Kind regards,

Charlie.

Plueprint with linked/cloned Textblock
Asked by Christian Schimmel:

Hi,

I'm using the meeting blueprint, but we would benefit largly, if a part of the text from a blueprint can be copied from another meeting protocol.

We have a topic "action items" which will be taken over from the last protocol.

1. can we preinsert this part whil editing a new protokol?
2. can this text block be used from "most recent" protocol?


Answers:
author: Carla Ann Rowland
body: Hi Jack,

In confluence your question can be answered using the Excerpt and Excerpt Include macros.

On your original page, go into edit and highlight the section you want copied.

1. Define the excerpt: Go to the macro + menu and search for Excerpt macro. Insert and open this macro--pasting the section you copied.
2. Go to your new page and insert the Excerpt Include macro; at the include field call up your original page that has the Excerpt.

The Excerpt will now include the information from step one will now appear on the new page.

Note: to edit the section in the excerpt will have to go back to original page where the excerpt is defined.

Plugin build error: copy-bundled-dependencies failed

I know this question has been asked elsewhere, but the accepted answer didn't work for me.

I've been given a Confluence plugin to debug, and I haven't been able to build it. It gives the following error on build:
