Asked by Matt Wasilefsky:

Is there away to update Trello boards and suppress sending the updates to people on the board. Some updates just need to be on the board and do not need to be communicated to everyone on the board. As an example we may add a due date that doesn't need to go out to everyone as the due date will automatically show up at the time due

In my view there are too many notifications by default, so I created BenkoBoard which unsubscribes you from any card you're added to:

<http://www.benkoboard.com/>

This means you only get notified about being added to a card or mentioned in a comment by name. It creates a card for each of those notifications in a central inbox so you can see your notifications across all boards and prioritise them (it also allows you to connect Gmail so you can have all your comms in one spot).

To me, this is the right amount of notifications, and allows you to have audible notifications turned on in the Trello app. If there are specific events for which a notification is required beyond these 2 basic scenarios, then you can always use automations to trigger a card comment or email for those specific cases.
Priority work area
Asked by T?bio:

Hello Trello community, I have several different work areas with different boards in each work area. It is complicated to keep browsing through each work area to see the most urgent ones in each one. I wonder if there are any Power-ups that can mark each priority item and see these selected cards in one place? I tried the Team Table, but it doesn't suit me as I would like.

Thank you all


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@T?bio](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4404974) I created a product called BenkoBoard that helps manage Trello notifications and priorities across multiple boards:

<http://www.benkoboard.com/>

When you're added to a card, or mentioned by name in a comment, you get a linked card in your Inbox. That way you can prioritise not only things you're assigned to but tasks that might arise from comments that require a longer form response.

Also, when you're added to a card it unwatches the card so you only get notified about being added and mentioned. To me this is the right amount of notifications so you don't get swamped with "card moved, checklist item checked, due date added, due date removed, member added" etc. etc. This means you can have your Trello notifications enabled in the app and disable email notifications altogether.

In addition you can connect Gmail and bring your Primary tab into the same inbox, so all your import notifications, priorities and communications are in one spot.

Keyboard shortcuts on Mac Dvorak layout
Asked by Caleb Turner:

A couple basic keyboard shortcuts stopped working for me recently when editing text on Trello; I use the Dvorak layout on Chrome on macOS.

Before, when I pressed Cmd + the I key (mapped to the letter C in Dvorak), it would copy, as it should. Now it inserts _ on the selected text (italic), as if I'm using a Qwerty keyboard. Same with Cmd + the B key (should be X, cut); now it inserts \*\* to bold.

Unfortunately, Cmd + the C key does nothing, while Cmd + the X key (which is mapped to Q in Dvorak) quits Chrome. So I have no way to cut or copy without changing keyboard layouts or using the menu. This behaviour has only changed over the last 1-2 weeks.

This thread seems like a similar issue? [Shortcuts with Mac Korean Keyboard](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-questions/Shortcuts-with-Mac-Korean-Keyboard/qaq-p/1382740)

body: Hi [@Romain TEF](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2000258) ,

you Confluence is connected to some external user directory, is that correct? When you have this, it can be in read only mode, which means user data are read from this directory, but you cannot write from Jira to it. Probably your users need to be deactivated in this directory and after sync they will be also deactivated in Confluence.


author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Romain TEF](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2000258) ,

it means that user is coming from an external source (Active Directory) that is configured to be read only.

You need to deactive it on AD side.

Separate TOCs in Localtab Macro
Asked by Namita Gupta:

Hi, I have a bi-lingual article (English \& French) Created using the Localtab macro. However, when I insert the ToC macro within each localtab(Eng \& FR) the ToC gets merged - that is, it contains both the English and the French text in the ToC.

Can we have separate ToC in each localtab?


Answers:
author: Mattia _bitvoodoo ag_
body: Hello Namita, welcom to the community.

Based on your mention of Localtab, I assume you have our app [Navitabs](https://bitvoodoo-apps.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BVNAVITABS/overview) in use in your Confluence.

The table of content macro creates a table of contents from the page it is on. Even if it is inside a tab.

For your use case, I would recommend you proceed as follows. On the page where you want to add the tab navigation with the 2 language versions, create two subpages (child pages).

* A child page with the content and the ToC macro for the English version.
* A child page with the content and ToC macro of the French version.

On the original page (parent page) you can now set the "[Childtabs](https://bitvoodoo-apps.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BVNAVITABS/pages/5269062100/Childtabs+Macro)" macro instead of the "Localtab-Group" and "Localtab" macros. This macro will automatically generate the tab navigation based on the child pages. And on each tab's content, the ToC will only list the contents of its own page.

I hope this information helps you. If you have any further questions about our apps, you can always contact our [support.](https://jira.bitvoodoo.ch/servicedesk/customer/portal/2)

Confluence License Issues
Asked by Cory Timm:

Hello, I am trying to reinstall my local (non-cloud) Confluence server however I keep getting errors about my license being invalid. My support license expired in early 2021 but I was still under the impression that I could use the software. I've tried installing the most recent version (7.19.1) as well as the version that was the most current when I purchased my license in April of 2020 but neither have worked. Is there something I'm missing or am I out of luck using the non-cloud version now that it is no longer supported?


Answers:
author: Rilwan Ahmed
body: Hi [@Cory Timm](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5023812) ,

Welcome to the community !!

1. If you are upgrading your old confluence instance with a expired license, then it will **not** work. You need a renewed license to upgrade confluence.
2. If its a fresh install, make sure you deleted all the previous contents from your local machine including DB and do a new install. You can make use of evaluation license.

**Good to know:**

* If you have not yet purchased a Confluence license you'll be able to create an evaluation license during setup.
* If you already have a license key you'll be prompted to log in to [my.atlassian.com](http://my.atlassian.com/) to retrieve it, or you can enter the key manually during setup. This works only if you have a valid license.
* Self-managed Data Center products can be trialed for **30 days** before purchase
* Atlassian has ended sales for **new server licenses** and will end support for server on February 2, 2024. Atlassian is continuing our investment in Data Center

limit anonymous access
Asked by Pascal:

Is there a way to limit anonymous access to a limited number of people, e.g. by sharing one and the same secret password with them, not by issuing personal userids and passwords.

The use case would be to temporarily give a group op people (anonymous) a preview of the space, before it is opened up for everyone.

thanks

pascal


Answers:
author: Matt Reiner [K15t]
body: Hey [@Pascal](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1154050)

Yeah, unfortunately that's not how anonymous access works. It's all or nothing, it seems.

If you want to share one or more spaces with a limited group, you could try my team's app Scroll Viewport. With it, you can publish your spaces to a customizable help center and you can connect it to a SAML authentication provider so people have to log in. Another option is you can give select people access tokens.

Could you elaborate on what you mean precisely by "give select pepole access tokens"?

thx

pascal


author: Matt Reiner [K15t]
body: Of course! When you enable access tokens in Scroll Viewport, the entire site is put behind a login page.

You can generate up to 20 unique access codes that users can user to log into the site. You might share a code with a single person, a team, or an entire organization.

You can also append any generated token as a query parameter to the URL of any of your site's pages to provide instant access to the pages. This is great in situations where you only want people with a specific URL to have access to your help center.


author: Alex Koxaras _Relational_
body: Hi [@Pascal](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1154050)

Unfortunately, and to quote [Atlassian](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/set-up-public-access/):
> When you make your content available to anonymous users, this means anyone on the internet. The anonymous access feature can't accommodate sharing with some anonymous people and not others. **It's all or nothing**.

You can always use the "Share" action for a page, but not for a space. And I know that this could possibly means a lot of "share links". :/

But if it's for preview only to a handful of people, if you have some licenses to spare, you can always create a group for them with application access and grant them viewing permissions for that specific space (having in mind not to grant them access to other spaces).

A third way would be to export all space pages to a pdf and share them with all the people you need.

Hope any of the above helps.

However, when I try to report an issue, bug or submitting a report ticket, the Atlassian Support Centre only allows offers me two options:

- Review and endless list of bugs and vote them

- Post a community question (like this one)

I understand that community questions are tools for learning or sharing improvement ideas, but not for directly reporting bugs.

If so, this only happens if you are on a ++free++ plan **or** if you are not listed as a technical contact on your subscription.

To make sure not every person in a company starts raising support requests the people that can actually do this is limited to the known technical contact(s).

If you are that person you might need to get your admin to add you.

Community itself has been set up to either learn from others by experience and also to avoid support spending all their time on specific use-case that are not specific to support but more use-case/how to related.

Is it possible to create custom page elements?
Asked by Tim Fields:

I have created a custom template for adding case studies. Any one case study will have one or more components that contribute to the solution being documented --- a form, JavaScript, CSS, SQL, etc. For each component, I have built a table to capture the attributes of the component --- name, filename, link, dependencies, etc., and below that will be additional elements to describe the component --- code snippets, screenshots, diagrams, etc. Let's call this collective group of page elements a page "block."  

In my page template I'd like to avoid having 6 empty page blocks, where the user would have to delete the blocks not needed. Instead, I'd like a way to abstract the page block as its own page element that can be inserted, just as we insert page elements delivered with Confluence.  

Is it possible to create my own custom page elements that show up in the menu or the / shortcut?
