Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Linus Schlepp](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4631390) ,

Please clarify which app do you use to filter your Confluence tables?

Is it our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) app and its [Table Filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Filter+macro) macro? If this is the case, then the header row is not supposed to be hidden because filtering/sorting is based on it.

Here you can read more about the Table Filter macro and its [table viewing options](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/Sorting%2C+freezing+and+other+table+viewing+options).

comments: author: Linus Schlepp
body: Hi [@Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1464746) ,

Thanks for your quick response. I am using the "standard" Confluence filter option for tables. ![image.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/169053i8250555A83B77250/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

Is there any tool, which enables me to hide those empty-filtered tables?


author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Yes, it is definitely our app and its Table Filter macro - there is no any option to hide the header row if your filters don't match any results. The filtering/sorting is based on the headers, they are always visible.

Date picker still not adjustable in format?
Asked by ABoerio:

Hi,

I saw some old post on this, but I wonder if there's still no way to adjust the date picker format.

It's really frustrating, we have user interfaces in English (US) and in Italian, and I need to keep it this way.

Regardless of these settings, I'd need to make dates (introduced with //...) to be shown (and exported, when exporting to pdf or word, or Excel) in a specific format.

Example

![image.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/168876iA97E678A58AD69CA/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

Here I really need to see 15/09/17, or 15/09/2017...

I can't have all users with the same language setting, and I need to set the date format I want, not only related to a fix language pack.

How can this be a so frustrating task, in 2021?

Am I missing something?

Ciao, Andrea


Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Ciao [@ABoerio](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2035799) ,

unfortunately Date format is strickly depending from language. It is not expected that modifying the Confluence date format would change this.

There's an open suggestion for that [https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-55188?error=login_required\&error_description=Login+required\&state=ee1d460f-5217-471e-8543-e65e04af3951](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-55188?error=login_required&error_description=Login+required&state=ee1d460f-5217-471e-8543-e65e04af3951)

Hope this helps,

Fabio

comments: author: ABoerio
body: Ciao [@Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781528) thanks for your answer. I'm finding this point hard to accept, and difficult to explain to my users. We need to be able to control the format of our dates, especially when printed/exported.

I might end up fixing language settings as same for all users, Italian or English-US (more likely this would be the chosen language) , but even in this case I'd like to define a fixed format as by company standard (eg. 15/09/2017), to be associated with that unique language, I cannot simply accept the format defined in Confluence for that language.

Ciao, Andrea

Team planner template
Asked by Alex Phipps:

Hi Everyone,

I was just wondering if anyone has a template for a team planner for 2022? to track leave etc. As my planner only runs to the end of the year. I'm struggling to find one on another confluence page.

![Capture.PNG](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/168877i57FD87F4C5AF0302/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Capture.PNG")

Many thanks

Alex


Answers:
author: Gaurav
body: Hello [@Alex Phipps](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4459003)

Could you please confirm if you are using any plugin for the team planner?

From the screenshot, it seems like some has manually created this for your team. If this is the case, then you will have to extend this manually for the next year and similarly every year.

If you are not aware, please check with your space or instance administrator.

Please accept the answer if this helps resolve the query.

Unable to edit any pages in Confluence due to Collaborative Editing (Confluence7.14.1)
Asked by cruise:

    This page is taking longer to load than usual. Give it a few moments, then try refreshing. Still having issues? Contact your Confluence admin.

After confluence is upgraded to 7.14.1, open collaborative editing cannot be edited, after closing it can edit, server.xml is configured with HTTPS, but there is no HTTP, how should I configure HTTP so that synchrony can perform health checks and then work


Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_

How to determine the layout when creating pages via rest api?
Asked by Adharsh Manikandan:

I'm using REST API to create confluence pages.

But the content is occupying full width. When I create pages in confluence it's roughly 800px wide and in the center.

How to correct the page width or layout while posting plain HTML like \<p\>Hello\</p\> via rest API ?


Answers:
author: Darryl Lee
body: There's apparently are some undocumented **metadata.properties** you can use to set this:

```
  'metadata': {    'properties': {      'content-appearance-draft': {        'value': 'full-width'      },      'content-appearance-published': {        'value': 'full-width'      }
```

Answer by Thomas Berger found in the Developer forums [here](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/make-layout-full-width-when-creating-page/40461/4) which is probably a good place to look for API answers. :-}.

How to create an user with read-only permission for Confluence?
Asked by Vincent Lin:

Hi

May I know how to create/invite an user with read-only permission for Confluence? Thanks.

Regards

Vincent


Answers:
author: Suvarna Gaikwad
body: [@Vincent Lin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4534718) You can follow below steps to create read only users in Confluence.

1. Create a group called read-only

author: Vincent Lin
body: Great ! thank you Suvarna


author: Kishan Sharma
body: Hi [@Vincent Lin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4534718) Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

In confluence, the level of permissions granted to a user determines whether the user is limited to read only access. So as mentioned by Suvarna in her answer, you can create a group and assign just the view permissions to that group in the space and add users to that group will do what you are trying to achieve.

Confluence also offers "anonymous access" which means the site visitor does not log in and thus does not need to be licensed which most frequently is associated with 'read-only' access. You can read more about it [here](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/set-up-public-access/). Hope that helps!

Measure volume consumed in a space by a user set
Asked by Samuel Srungarapati:

Hi All,

Is it possible to measure statistically the volume consumption of a space by a specific set of users?


Answers:
author: Darryl Lee
body: So I'd say it depends what type of beer you are drinking, and the alcohol tolerance of the specific set of users. You will probably also want to consider the amount of time for consumption.

:-}

Oh wait. Sorry. Are you talking about Confluence? And disk space?

That's nearly an impossible question to answer because it's hard to know what your users will be doing.

* Will they be publishing a blog post every day?
* Will they write documentation for an electric car?
* Or just take notes from an a meeting every two weeks?

It really truly depends on what your space is used for, and what the expectations are for users.

comments: author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Don't forget unit of measure - I mean, the UK went metric about 55 years ago, but I've continued to drink pints and 1/4 gills, and of course, those are Imperial measures, not US!


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: That's quite a hard calculation to make (assuming by "volume consumption", you mean "disk space")

Imagine the simple case:

Bob creates a page, which has a few paragraphs of text on it, and adds an image (as an attachment).

You now have to count two things - there's a set of lines in your database containing the pages content and metadata, so there's a calculation to be made on how much disk those rows in the database take up (it'll be proportional to the volume of text on the page), and then the disk space the attachment takes up.

So that's a bit complex already.

Now, Alice sees the page and edits it, adding another paragraph of text, an image, and, just to be really difficult, an "include" macro. You now have a whole host of harder calculations:

* There is now a page history to calculate for
* Do you count Bob's original as Bobs, and the whole new version of the page as Alice's? Or is the ownership still all Bob's? Or is the original stuff all Bob's and you only want to count new/changed stuff as Alice's? Same question for attachments
* Does the included part of the page count? Even when the included page belongs to Charlie?

In fact, this all matters whether you're counting disk space or something else.

Rather than talk more about "volume consumption", I think we need to ask what problem you are trying to solve?

Export to PDF doesn't expand Expand Macro?
Asked by Michelle Smith:

My understanding from the documentation is that exporting a page to PDF should result in any included Expand macros being printed to the PDF "expanded". However, I am not seeing this behaviour - the PDF generated by the export has no representation of the Expand macro.

I exported the same page to Word and the content of the expand macro *is*visible, but I'd far prefer to use the PDF export because the output includes many of the other features ("status", "panels") and therefore looks more readable.

I've had a look to see whether this is a bug, but can't find anything.

I created a basic page containing two expand macros and exported it to both PDF and word. The images below show the issue - the first image is the PDF...with no visibility of the expand content. The second image is the Word file, which shows the content of the expand and the expand caption.

![PDFExport.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/168847i45A93E2FBB1D77DF/image-dimensions/239x174?v=v2 "PDFExport.jpg")![WordExport.jpg](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/168845i382D7E7A142F6545/image-dimensions/282x325?v=v2 "WordExport.jpg")

Am I missing something? Or can I report this as a bug (and how do I do that!!!??)

<br />

Cheers,

Michelle

Fillable code snippets
Asked by Alexander Gotfrid:

Is there currently a way for us to format a code block in confluence so that we can have "fill in" areas in the code snippet?

So that we could change the replaceable code and then copy the desired change right away, instead of editing it outside of confluence.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: I cannot work out a way to do this in Confluence (or any other software). If you want variable code-blocks in a system, then you need something that will draw in your raw code as people read it.

The obvious answer in Confluence is to include pages or other data in macros that point to your code snippets.

Are Dynamic Forms available in ScriptRunner for Confluence like in Jira?
Asked by WW:

I really like using Dynamic Forms in script runner for Jira, but I was disappointed when I tried to use them in ScriptRunner for Confluence and couldn't find documentation.

**Does anyone know if Dynamic Forms is available in ScriptRunner for Confluence?**

I'm on Confluence 7.13.2 (Server) and ScriptRunner for Confluence 6.32.0.


Answers:
author: Peter-Dave Sheehan
body: Sometimes... a quick test is worth more than a ton of pre-existing knowledge...

Just like a picture is worth... well you know the rest...

So in short, yet they appear to be available despite not being explicitly called out in the documentation. Much of the core scriptrunner functionality is actually the same code-based regardless of which application it runs into.

comments: author: WW
body: Hmm, I guess the one I was looking at, [User picker](https://docs.adaptavist.com/sr4js/6.31.0/best-practices/write-code/dynamic-forms), had "jira" in the class name:

[com.atlassian.jira.user.ApplicationUser](https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/latest/com/atlassian/jira/user/ApplicationUser.html)

Boolean would work, since that's really generic. I suspect a text box would also probably work.

I wonder if I switched out the Confluence user class for the Jira one if that'd work.

I'll have to experiment.

Thank you for demonstrating that it at least partially works!

Check List Notification
Asked by hassan_karimi:

Hi. Is there anyway so I can get notification who has added an item to checklists?

I used this:

when an item is added to a checklist by anyone, post comment "@board Item added to checklist by [@Member](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1521540)", and post comment "@board Item added to checklist by [@username](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1677494)"

but it only returns my name.

I there anyway to see adding checklist items in activity log?


Answers:

body: Hi [@hassan_karimi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3825454)

I've managed to get the rule to work like this:

Of course, you can add things like the checklist name and things like that, but I've just tried it and it returns my husbands name when he added a checklist item, although it said that I'd commented when we got the notification, but the command shows his name even though the comment was made by me.

comments: author: Esme Crutchley
body: However, he got a notification, I didn't - because the Butler rule was set up by me, so the comment was posted by me.

So it wouldn't give you a notification, but what it would do is post a comment with the person who added the checklist item (as you) and then no one else would be able to remove it (as far as I understand it having looked on Hubster's phone - he just has reply, he can't edit).

So while you wouldn't get a notification, because you can't notify yourself (for some random reason), you would be able to see on the back of the card who added it when you opened it up
