Would disabling personal spaces prevent access to the ones already created?
Asked by Martin Doucet:

G'day all,

We're about to migrate our DC Confluence instance to another. The new instance we migrate to does not permit personal spaces. We have a couple already there, and I already ultimatum-ed the users to get their stuff out, lest it dies with the former instance.

As part of the glorious work of taking out the trash, I want to prevent any inspired individual to create a brand new personal space. I know where to toggle that functionality off (in Global permissions). Unfortunately I don't have a test instance to test and wreck things, and I wasn't successful in finding an answer to my current question:

**If I turn off personal space creation capability, will the existing personal spaces remains accessible and editable by their owners?**

That's it, that's the question. I hope, and assume, yes, but if a gentle soul would like to confirm, that's be great.

Thanks!

Yes, it will be accessible even after you turn off the Create space permission.

They will be able to access the space.

The users who haven't created the spaces will not be able to create the space.

Thanks,

How to list all the page titles along with creators?
Asked by Wojtek Jurewicz:

Hi,

I have a confluence site, and I need to export the list of all the sites titles along with their modification dates and users that have modified it. I can see that REST API can help me achieving this, i.e. this:

```
/rest/api/content?spaceKey=SPACEKEY&limit=100
```

gives me the list of pages, and I can extract titles from there. That's nice, but what REST API call can give me creators, modifiers and modification dates? It doesn't have to be a single REST API call, but even on separate I didn't manage to achieve what I need:

```
/rest/api/content/246645515?expand=body.storage
```

If there are any other (than REST API) better ways to achieve it, I'd be happy to find out. Thank you!

Can we capture the system time while capturing the voting option in confluence?

I am not aware of any native vote function in confluence but you can use the apps to do the same. One such app is polls the link is provided below

PLANTUML Sequence Diagram: Include common group with common sequences
Asked by Wolfgang H?mmer:

Hi  
I have a number of uses cases - these use cases have common system interactions which I defined as sequence groups.  
I tried to have these groups in a common puml file - and include the file in some of the sequence diagrams.  

1. When the file is on the same page as the sequence diagram the instruction  
!include "\^Common.iuml" replaces the whole with the content of Common.iuml  
2. When the file is on a separate page

!include "Additiv-Avaloq: Use Cases\^Common.iuml" -\> Cannot include "Additiv-Avaloq: Use Cases\^Common.iuml"  

I would need to include the content of Common.puml in different places in the sequence diagram. The include instruction does not seem to support this - in addition to the issues above.

Thanks :)

Referencing Confiform data from another page
Asked by Jim Rogers:

I have the need to create a table view of data found in a Confiform form on another page. This will help me to specialize the data view, filtering, sorting to a specific use case without replicating the data via IFTTT.

I have tried creating the table view with the source as formName:pageId in the formName field in the table view definition.   

Also, if I reference correctly, can updates on the sub page update the main form without IFTTT going the other direction?

Thanks,

Jim


Answers:
author: Alex Medved _ConfiForms_
body: Hi

You can have a ConfiForms TableView or just any other "view" macro from ConfiForms on any page you want showing the data from a form that is on a different page.

As long as the user has view access to both pages.

You just need to set the "form name" and the "page name where the form is defined" parameters in your TableView and that's it (both parameters)

Notification
Asked by Marty_hemi:

I have added an image which called 'Announcents', which is linked to page.

I know if you add comments in a page and add watchers a notification is sent and also if you change a page and select 'update and notify' people can be notified.

Is there someway that adds some text or indication advising there is a ++**new**++'announcement' so users know to select the icon to view.

Answers:
author: Curtis
body: I'm not sure if what you want is possible, at least not easily possible. You could instead use the 'include excerpt' macro to include the latest announcement on this page. And then a link to go to the page to view all the latest announcements. And as you do a new announcement, that is placed on the announcement page, in the 'Excerpt' macro, and the previous announcement contents are moved outside, or kept inside, depending on its age.

Another option might be to use the Blog for announcements, and use the 'Blog' macro to display the latest post on the page.

Either of these solutions make it so the users will see the announcement, and aren't required to go to another page to view it.

Best of luck on your Confluence adventures!

Ctrl-home keystroke stopped working inside the page editor?
Asked by elsevier_instance_0042:

I use ctrl-home and ctrl-end CONSTANTLY when hastily editing all kinds of documents in all kinds of environments, to jump to top or bottom of document as needed. Lately the ctrl-home keystroke stopped working inside the Confluence editor (although ctrl-end still works there). Is anyone aware of this bug? It is super-annoying because it's so basic, like it would be if any app suddenly took away any other super-basic platform-agnostic keystrokes, such as ctrl-o, ctrl-s, ctrl-a, ctrl-c, ctrl-v, or ctrl-x.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@elsevier_instance_0042](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1568172) This usually has more to do with the browser than it does the application. It is working for me. Is this happening in multiple browsers? Have you recently added a browser plugin?

comments: author: elsevier_instance_0042
body: Thanks for the tip. Maybe it is Chrome causing it somehow. (I use only Chrome for Confluence.) When viewing the page normally (i.e., not the editor but rather the HTML page itself), the keystrokes work fine.

body: Hi Brant, The problem persisted (I still can't use ctrl-home when inside the Confluence editor), but I accept that the problem is probably specific to my instance in some way that isn't quite worth investigating any deeper (versus higher priorities).

Create Confluence page via API with Jira smart links
Asked by Joshua Mitchell:

We routinely create pages on Confluence by taking data from external sources, building HTML, and POSTing the page to ...++/++ ++api/content++ .  

The pages usually have a bunch of Jira links (e.g. ++https://{instance}.atlassian.net/browse/{ticket}++).

The issue is that the Jira links are created as plain HTML links. If the link is inserted in the page editor, it turns into a [smart link (inline view)](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Smart-Links-a-richer-way-to-hyperlink/ba-p/1412786):

I've been reading about macros but haven't found guidance on what we need to create the pages so that Jira links are already smart links.

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Can-I-insert-the-History-macro-through-REST-API-call/qaq-p/1038703>

Copying card to list on new board, then copying back and moving previous card
Asked by Dhes Pillay:

Hi there,I am attempting to create an automation so that when I move a card into a list on a particular board, it finds another card with the same title in another list and archives it. Each card title will be new so I am not able to enter in a static card title when building the automation. Hoping you can help with this?  

EG:   
Assuming Card XYZ already exists on List A on Board 1  
I have set trello to automatically copy card XYZ onto list A on Board 2  
\*My action\*  
I move card XYZ from list A to list B on board 2  

I would like  
Card XYZ on Board 1 List A to move to List B on Board 1 with the updated description + Comments of card XYZ on Board 2 List B  

<br />

Basically, I have a team member that I want to assign tasks by moving a card into his list. I want to be able to look at my master board and know that the task is with him, so I don't want the card to archive on my list when I assign it to him. The same card will be copied onto his list. When he moved the card onto the "needs revision" list on his board, I want the same card to move into my "needs review" list in trello and to match and move the original card I had for him to the "needs review" column so that I don't have 2 cards with the same title etc.  

Thank you!

Is there a way to find a card with the exact same card name as the card that I moved which is in another list using butler?

I am thinking that I just find the card in the original list and archive it to avoid duplicates.  
The issue is that each card is going to have a different "order number" so I don't think I can make wildcards work.  

Is there a way to just find the exact same card name that exists in a different list to select that card?
