Does somebody have experience with using Aura on Confluence Mobile?
Asked by Olena Vojcik:

Hello Community!

Currently I'm testing possibilities with Aura on confluence Cloud. And on web version everything is fine (all macros are working nice and smooth) and I see my content. However, on Confluence Cloud Mobile app (I tried on iOS), it's not loading content within macro automatically. However, there is a button to load and view, and I need to click it each time I'm opening page with Aura macros. Any ideas how automatic load can set up for mobile?

I haven't got my hands-on with this market place plugin. I'm sure you might have contacted their **[support team](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1221974/aura-content-formatting-macros-tabs-miro-figma-google-html?hosting=cloud&tab=support)** and checked the **[documentation](https://appanvil.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/AC/overview?homepageId=1636466868)** for references.

author: Yoni Simhi
body: I see it as a showstopper, it really breaks the experience, in my opinion

Is there any chance that it will be fixed?

comments: author: Olena Vojcik
body: Hi [@Yoni Simhi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5004152)

I raised this question with Atlassian and got following answer:

"I understand that the macros in the mobile app do not show up as they do on a webpage, By default, Confluence Mobile does not render macros. Instead, it displays a placeholder that, when tapped, loads the desktop version of the page.

This is why you see the **Tap to load** option for macros and it is the **intended behavior**.

We do have a Feature request raised to allow support for these macros on mobile, the details can be found below:

<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-57844>

Please be sure to watch it, and vote on it, so that you're notified if this is implemented in a future release."

Please reopen CONFSERVER-22874 and make page version history use immutable versions of images
Asked by jason_s:

As of Confluence 7.13.0, you can upload a new and completely different version of an image, and it will not change the page history: if you are working on a page named Foo and it is currently at version 2, and you upload a newer version of an image,

This is a serious bug. **It means that the items in the page history are not immutable**, and they can change image content, without any way to go back and audit and see exactly what the page looked like as of a particular point in time.

Please reopen CONFSERVER-22874, which was identified in 2011 but dismissed as "Not a bug".


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: The Community is not a place to ask for this, it's not where Atlassian looks for getting features or ideas, and it's definitely not anything they look at as a source for "please reopen".

The behaviour you describe is not what Confluence is designed for, hence the "close, not a bug" response. I don't think you're going to get any traction on this one here.

Macro for table with Merged cells
Asked by Eyal Zmora:

I want to create a table similar to the following:

|------|------|------|------|
| Col4 | Col3 | Col2 | Col1 |
| 1_4  | 1_3  | 1_2  | 1    |
| 2_4  | 2_3  | 2_2  | 2    |
| 3_4  | 3_3  | 3_2  | 2    |
| 4_4  | 4_3  | 4_2  | 4    |

One merged cell - which actually references 2 rows.

I dont mind achieving this by merging cells or creating a hierarchical table.

Any idea which Macro I should use, and how to do it?

Eyal


Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@Eyal Zmora](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2480702) ,

If you want to create this table manually (just merge several cells), then you don't need any macros: select your cells and choose to merge them from the menu.

![Mon 4-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/200745i8AFD2955E80FF229/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Mon 4-1.png")

If you mean that you want to group your data, to create an aggregated pivot table like in Excel, then you'll need additional apps from the Atlassian Marketplace.

For example, we can suggest trying our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud&utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) app and its [Pivot Table](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Pivot+Table+macro?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro.

comments: author: Eyal Zmora
body: Hi [@Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1464746) I am writing python code which generates csv/json files of some format. I'd like to use them as the basis for the Confluence table. So to your question - this is not manual.

I looked at the Table Filter and Charts for Confluence, and as its name implies it allows filtering of the data and displaying charts of different types.

The Pivot Table macro allows aggregation of the data.

I am still not sure how to merge specific cells, or create a hierarchical table (A table with data which can be collapsed and expanded).

Thanks,

Eyal


author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Thank you for the clarification - seems that our app is not exactly what you need.

We provide the Table from JSON/Table from CSV macros that can recreate tables in Confluence from json/csv attachments/URLs. These tables can be further filtered/aggregated.

But we don't have the hierarchical tables feature. Hope somebody else will come across this question, read this thread and suggest a solution.

Multiple Spaces migration between two different Confluence instances.
Asked by sanan sanan:

Hi,

There are around 80+ spaces in Confluence A.

I have to migrate all those spaces to Confluence B.

Both the Confluences are on server.

Is there any better way other than exporting all the individual spaces into xml and importing all of them one by one on the target instance? as this will take a long time for us.

as far as I now taking full export and restoring it will overwrite everything at target Confluence.

Versions and other configuration are matched already so no problem at that part.

Regards

sanan


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@sanan sanan](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1152151) You can migrate each space by doing an xml export and import. I know that the Atlassian marketplace has apps like CLI that allow you to move spaces, this might be faster if you have a lot of spaces to move.

comments: author: sanan sanan
body: [@Brant Schroeder](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/769100) ,

thanks for the reply. Actually, we already managed to migrate all the spaces by using traditional methoed of exporting .xml and importing into destination instance. As this seemed to more tested and accepted method.

Gantt chart x-axis label on the top of the graph
Asked by Arica Chan:

Hi,

I am using macro Chart from table, Gantt chart to do a roadmap where X-axis is the date. There are quite a lot of items but the x-axis label is showing at the bottom so I need to keep scrolling and it is hard to refer to the start and end date from the graph. Is there a way to show the dates (x-axis label) on the top?

Or an alternative option is by having a vertical line for each month, I want additionally some thicker line for each quarter.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Allow external users to access content without consuming licenses
Asked by IT support:

Hello,

I'm the Atlassian products admin for my company, and we'd like to set up a new Space so external users can sign in / log in to it without using any licenses and access the content.

I'm kinda new to this, so I'd greatly appreciate your help for any approach you can think of.

Confluence plugins are also an option, if they fulfill our requirements.

The general idea is building 2 spaces: One as a public KB (this one's easy enough), and a restricted space for partners.

Also, is there any way to export/import users from an external DB and import them as unlicensed Confluence users?

Many thanks!

Your system will go into a setup cycle if the database connection has been damaged or has stopped working. You'll need to check what database settings are in the configuration XML file in Confluence's home (data) directory, and that the database is up and serving there.
