Is there any limit of data entering into a page in confluence datacenter?
Asked by Swetha Reddy:

We are using Confluence Datacenter of version-7.13.4, and we are having a issue with a page in confluence. We are trying to enter data under UI-Expand macro of our day-to-day activities, but I am not understanding it has stopped suddenly and throwing an error (I have attached the error message).

I want to know whether there is any limit of using the macro or any page limit.

Adding Post Rating Functionality
Asked by JadeGuo:

Hello everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help me with a functionality I would like to implement. Essentially, I would like users to be able to rate blog posts that have published by others after they have read them.

Are there any existing methods or plugins that could facilitate this kind of rating system? I would greatly appreciate any assistance or guidance you could provide.

Thank you very much.


Answers:

body: Hi [@JadeGuo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5221076) .

I think most of the plugins designed for polls can be used for such a rating system. ? [https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=server\&product=confluence\&query=polls](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=server&product=confluence&query=polls)

How do I share a table in confluence populated with a JIRA filter to other users?
Asked by Kirsten Bryden:

I have built a table on a confluence page that is populated from a filter created in JIRA. Other people in my team can see the page, but the table is empty. I've tried sharing the filter directly from JIRA, and I've also added them in space permissions from confluence, however they still can't see the table.


Answers:
author: Kirsten Bryden
body: I've worked it out! I just needed to list out the filters and edit the permissions.


author: Marcin Wiktor
body: Hello,

to see filter's result that user needs permission to view issues in this project and also needs access to this filter. Please check if he really can:

1) browse the project

2) view filter's results directly

When I extract multiple confluence pages in a PDF file, there are a few Draw.io diagrams that haven't come across. However, similar pages with same format diagrams have come across in the PDF extract. Is there a size / width limit to the pictures?

Syntaxes instead of menus in Confluence 8.2.3

These code snippets look like Velocity not being rendered.

I know this is going to sound very accusatory, which is absolutely not my intention, but I still have to ask - what have you customised on this server that might be breaking Velocity?

It may well be a bug, but my 8.2.3 system is working fine, so I'm not sure that it's going to be in the core code. When you upgraded, what files did the installer tell you might be different?

comments: author: Geraldo Barros
body: Hi [@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781454)

I've updated the Apps \& restarted the server and then it just fixed.

There is no one customization, luckily that got it working again, but I don't know exactly what might have fixed it.

There have been a couple of changes since version 8 of Confluence and you may need to also update these apps.

If you cannot find anything in the server logs, you may have a look at the browser console for some hints what goes wrong ...

Adding Multiple Users to a Group
Asked by Will Baltazar:

I am using the following method:

POST: /wiki/rest/api/group/user?name="Group Name"

I entered a JSON list with multiple account IDs in the following format:  
{  
"accountId": "AAAAA"  
},  
{  
"accountId": "BBBBB"  
},  
{  
"accountId": "CCCCC"  
}  
I receive an HTTP Status Code of "201 Created". This adds only one user to the group. Can anyone advise what I need to do to have the entire list of users added?


Answers:
author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: That [REST API end-point](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/rest/v1/api-group-group/#api-wiki-rest-api-group-user-post) does not support adding multiple users in one go. If you add multiple "accountId" properties, only one of them will be processed.

Simply, instead of trying to bulk-add 3 users in one call, add one in one call and make 3 calls altogether.

(According to the REST API does, "bulk-add" isn't supported by alternative end-points, either.)

Confluence Search
Asked by Sapir Shemesh:

Hey!

Is there a way to adjust the search behavior to find relevant pages for **partial wording**?

For example, one of my team members was looking for "requests rehandle" and didn't find the relevant article. When I typed in the full term "requests **rehandler**" I did find the relevant article.

So a missing "r" changed the search results. Any ideas?

A wildcard should do the trick. For example: rehandle\*

You can learn more about Confluence search syntax at <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/confluence-search-syntax/>.

comments: author: Das Hufnagl
body: That does not fit to what's written here: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/search-139528.html>

Because there it says: "Results will appear as you type --- you don't need to hit enter."

So the search should not wait for a wildcard but instead suggest search results immediately.

I am new to Confluence but a bit surprised that such basic things do not work as documented. Using wildcards is moreover very technical. Who uses wildcards in Google Search for example?

Best regards, Andreas

Confluence iPad app missing bottom toolbar bug

body: Hi [@greensabath](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4333849) welcome to the Atlassian community.

May I request you to try zooming the page or turning off the full screen mode on iPad. Sometimes, to give the best UI experience, some apps hide toolbars.

If you already considered the above step, then let's wait to hear from other community members.

comments: author: greensabath
body: Hi [@G subramanyam](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3929184)

Out of Memory due to high usage of com/atlassian/confluence/search/lucene/TermsQuery
Asked by ivanchou:

In our Confluence Data Center install (7.17.4), we were seeing Out of Memory errors seemingly out of the blue (we were not upgrading Confluence as other KB articles have suggested OOM errors due to reindexing upon upgrades). The JVM runtimes were very short lived, churning through 4 GB of our normal heap size in a few hours, requiring restarts several times a day.

After reviewing heap dumps and GC graphs, we saw leak suspects like these:  

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| 1,488,688,800 bytes (33.8 %) of Java heap is used by 44,700 instances of com/atlassian/confluence/search/lucene/TermsQuery |

There's not much info about this class. But one interesting thing is it is fairly new, only recently introduced in 7.17 ( <https://docs.atlassian.com/ConfluenceServer/javadoc/7.18.1/index.html?overview-tree.html>  
com.atlassian.confluence.search.lucene )


Answers:
author: Graham Twine
body: Hello [@ivanchou](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1967638)

Can you see if there is an automated process doing something new?

Systems connecting to the REST API and doing very bad CQL searches?


author: ivanchou
body: There is a similar sounding Lucene OOM fix for <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-69488> in 7.19, but it doesn't mention TermsQuery search specifically.

We were able to remediate the problem by reducing the number of Max Simultaneous Searches: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/configuring-search-175210673.html>

I changed the value of Max Simultaneous Queries from 40 to 3. We didn't see the problem come back, even though I don't believe any of the search activity was explicitly user driven.

Literal in Pivot function within Table Transformer Macro?
Asked by Jim Solomon:

I'm familiar with the ability to use the **Literal** *operation* in the *Pivot Table macro* in the Table Toolbox.

Is there any equivalent of that literal operation when using the PIVOT *function* within the SQL section of a Custom *Table Transformer* macro? Or is it required to use a true (numerical) aggregating operator like MAX, or SUM, etc.?


Answers:
author: Katerina Rudkovskaya [Stiltsoft]
body: Hi [@Jim Solomon](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5146122),  

The PIVOT function inside the Table Transformer macro doesn't recognize the LITERAL option but you may use the GROUP BY function instead. Please see an example below:  

![Mon 5-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/258661i5C3DBCD4D5B0347E/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Mon 5-1.png")  

SELECT 'Person',  
FORMATWIKI(SUM('Activity' + "\\n")) AS 'Activity',  
FORMATWIKI(SUM('Value'::string + "\\n")) AS 'Value'  
FROM T1  
GROUP BY 'Person'  

![Mon 5-2.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/258662iEE0C73ABA7EE3B4B/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Mon 5-2.png")  

Hope this workaround helps your case.

Table Transform - results of a subquery as a field of a query
Asked by Richard Moe:

Hi there:

Not even sure how to formulate my question clearly which may be why I can't find any info on it:

I have two tables (Page Properties reports actually); for simplicity's sake:  

Table 1: Projects

* Project Name
* Project Leader

Table 2: Sub-projects

* Name
* Parent Project Name (JOIN on this)
* End Date

What I'm looking for is a table report that concatenates the names of all the Sub Projects as a field of the Projects, e.g.  

"Proj 1", "Jane Smith", "SubProject 1, Subproject 2, Subproject 3"  
"Proj 2", "Joe Brown", "SubProject a, Subproject b"

That last field, I'm not sure how to accomplish. Of course my easy button would be to join the two and get an output like:

<br />

"Proj 1", "Jane Smith", "SubProject 1"

"Proj 1", "Jane Smith", "SubProject 2"

Etc.

But I'd like to aggregate on that 3rd column for my table display such that the example output above is 2 rows instead of the 5 that a simple join would generate (in fact, I'd use that 3rd column as links back to the page the has that page properties report).

Any tips and tricks that could accomplish this? Thanks!


Answers:
author: Stiltsoft support
body: Hi [@Richard Moe](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5223561) ,

The simplest way to group your result table is to use the [Pivot Table](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-pivot-table-macro-42239659.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro.

As you have Cloud, insert the [Table Toolbox](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/tfac/cloud/how-to-use-table-toolbox-macro-42245927.html?utm_source=atl_community&utm_medium=answer&utm_campaign=table-filter-traffic-sources&utm_vendorID=1216111) macro and create the following sequence inside its shell: your Page Properties Report macros \<- the Table Transformer macro (to join your tables and/or perform some calculations) \<- the Pivot Table macro (to aggregate your data without losing any links).

Here is an example how you may set your Pivot Table macro:

![Fri 6-1.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/258382i49855508582564E4/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Fri 6-1.png")![Fri 6-2.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/258383i81ADD8E81D622258/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Fri 6-2.png")

In the Options tab you may select what "Literal value delimiter" you want to use (comma for my example) and hide totals/control panel.

Hope this workaround helps your case.
