Open Source Licensing
Asked by Kendrah Baker:

I applied for an Open Source License for my project's Jira \& Confluence instance. Shortly after applying, I received an email indicating that the License was approved and that I could expect to see that an Open Source License would be applied. Since that date, I have not seen that the license has been applied. I would like to make my confluence space public (as required by the license) but I am unable to.

What should I do as a next step? I know that my request was approved, but the instance has still not updated. It has been a few weeks since the acceptance so I would think it would have been applied by this date.

Should my version of Confluence be sending emails when tagged?
Asked by Travis Alexander [Admin]:

It's come to my attention that Confluence isn't sending emails when users are tagged on a particular page. I've checked the outgoing mail settings and everything seems to be configured properly. The version is Data Center 7.3.5 -- am I missing something somewhere? I thought this was just defaulted on.


Answers:
author: Patrick Vanhoof
body: Do the users that are tagged have access to the page? If not, they will not get notified.


author: Pramodh M
body: Hi [@Travis Alexander \[Admin\]](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4765055)

Welcome to the Community!!

May I know when you refer as tag, are you specifying the user being added as watcher or page being saved and watcher is not getting any notification?

Let me know

It depends on user profile settings as well whether the user gets notification for page updates

Please check with all the users in your space/page

Thanks,  
Pramodh

comments: author: Travis Alexander [Admin]
body: HI Pramodh.

I am referring to when the user is tagged with an "@" on the page. Not necessarily being added as a watcher.

None of the user settings seem to apply. See screenshot. Any ideas? ![Capture.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/185259iC212D274DCCB7D14/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Capture.PNG")

If Task A duration changed, how task B/C automatic change by dependency
Asked by Jitendra Kumar Maurya:

Task A schedule 6/1-6/10

Task B will start from A finished, its schedule is 6/11-6/20

Task C will start from B finished, its schedule is 6/21-6/30

If Task A postponed 6/1-6/15

Task B could auto changed 6/15-6/25

Task C could auto change 6/26-7/5

How to make the "auto change" happen?

you might want to check out my company's app [Orderly Databases](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Marketplace-Apps-Integrations/Announcing-Orderly-Replace-Confluence-Page-Properties-with/ba-p/1915196).

Although it won't solve your actual request for automatic date changes by dependancy, with Orderly you will be able to:

1. Change Date-fields in Database tables on the fly without having to open the editor;
2. Reference a Database table on other confluence pages. So even if you need to change dates manually, you would only need to do it once.

How to prevent word and pdf exports adding question marks "?" around some macros
Asked by Shaun Smith:

Hi!

I have a confluence page that pulls in excerpts from other pages. when I export this page to word or PDF, I've noticed that questions marks get added to dates (both inside and outside the excerpts) and on some page links.

How can I stop this from happening?

Example attached:

![Confluence exports dates with question marks.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/185212i53B0BD7B874845E4/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Confluence exports dates with question marks.png")

Welcome to Atlassian community.

As mentioned in [Configuring Database Character Encoding](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/configuring-database-character-encoding-177698.html), Confluence and your database must be configured to use the same character encoding. Issues with exports could be caused by a mismatch.

If you have admin privileges on the instance, please try the encoding test from [Troubleshooting Character Encodings](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/troubleshooting-character-encodings-167194.html):

I hope the above information helps. Have a nice day.

creating folders under folders (tree structure) in confluence
Asked by Sudhir Bhatia:

we create folders under folders (tree structure) in which we keep documents, ppts, videos and everything, how do we do the same thing in confluence


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

You don't. Confluence is not an artefact storage system, it is a structured wiki.

It does have simple storage for blobs, you can attach things to pages, but it is a simple flat list of (versioned) attachments per page, there's no use for "folders".

The "tree structure" applies to confluence spaces - pages live in a tree structure within a space.

The best thing you can do is start thinking of Confluence as a wiki - create pages (documents) that are ready for immediate use, and in a useful tree structure. Then attach static dumps of the files your people might associate with the page they are reading, in that page.

Audit Records Automatically Loaded
Asked by Naresh Sirsavada (Contractor):

Hi All,   
We need your assistance to understand and if possible disable the following option in Confluence. We had a issue with Confluence crashing with a heap memory error and when I restarted the application which started loading the Database table with the following information

Probably to get this fixed a formal support request with Atlassian would be a good idea.

author: Radek Dost?l
body: That's definitely not normal - Confluence should normally start back up "as usual" and not tarry with any upgrade tasks like this. At best, it would do things like this once it has booted up.

This makes me think that your Confluence instance was upgraded and this is part of the upgrade process?

You can browse the Atlassian Marketplace and search for apps that recreate tables from CSV attachments (it seems to me that there may be free add-ons).

Our own [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=server&utm_source=atl_community) app is a paid one because its main functions are filtration, aggregation, calculations in tables, etc. But it also provides the [Table from CSV](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+from+CSV+macro?utm_source=atl_community) macro that will suit your case.

Currently you cannot choose the columns displayed with the [Change History Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/change-history-macro-154632795.html), what includes the profile picture of page contributors.

This might be possible on a page by page basis by using some JavaScript code, but it would require the [HTML Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/html-macro-38273085.html) to be enabled on your instance, which isn't by default.

Let us know if that's enabled and we can try to create something to help you on that.

For the time being, I was able to create it without any errors even if I used this ID.

Variables in macros in templates?
Asked by Faros65:

Hello!  

We want to create a Confluence template for a page with various reporting info from one single Jira "initiative" item. The only thing that shall change betweeen the different to be created pages is the ID of the initiative in the JQLs within the macros.

Can you please point me to the respective info?

Thanks in advance!

I hope above info help. Have a nice day.

Thanks,

Srinath T

comments: author: Faros65
body: Hi Srinatha,

thanks for your answer. Unfortunately, neither of the two links above shows me how to put a variable into the macro. Only that I cannot add a variable to the "Create from template" button.

To be more precise with my requirement:

* The page template has multiple "Jira issue" and "Jira chart" macros.
* Each of these macros contains a JQL that retrieves the specific info related to the _same_ Jira item (plus some settings).

Example JQLs:

* key = INI-123
* project = "Milestone Management" and "Initiative of Milestone" = INI-123 order by "End Date"

This "INI-123" appears in all used macros on the page. What I now want for my template is to replace "INI-123" with a variable. When someone then creates a page from this template, he or she must provide the variable's value and all JQLs are automatically completed and call the correct info.

Any idea how I can achieve this?

Thanks  
Faros
