is it possible to crate a PDF icon or button on a entry to download or print a entry?
Asked by Jan Volkenandt:

Hello together,

Can I make all entries in a Confluence entry or in a whole area available with a PDF icon/button? So that the description can be downloaded or printed immediately?

Welcome to Atlassian community.

I think you are trying to create a form and want to create button. I have never created forms myself so pardon my basic knowledge on the same. I am not sure if below will answer your question , just sharing whatever Info i got.

* [Creating a form](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/creating-a-form/#retrieve-and-display-the-content-properties)

The above URL has many examples. Hope it helps you. Have a good day.!

Thanks,

Leider ist das nicht was ich meine.

Ich brauche ein Icon mit die Funktion jede Seite in PDF zu exportieren.

Gibt es sowas? Wenn ja, auch kostenfrei?

Wo stelle ich dies ein?![31-03-2022_15-29-53.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/190880i97E695EE86BD7604/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "31-03-2022_15-29-53.png")

confluence tables
Asked by Amna Shahbaz:

Hello Someone Help me please i was stuck one point. Why my table show in the confleune like this i attach the pic what happnd with it

body: If you have [Confluence Source Editor](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1210722/confluence-source-editor?tab=overview&hosting=server), which will appear in a page's **Edit view** as \<\> in the upper right corner of the screen, you can fix the HTML itself. Most likely something got copy/pasted into the table and caused it to become off.

Other than experimenting with deleting columns/rows, Source Editor is really going to be your best bet for fixing this.

If you don't have/see the \<\>, [Confluence Source Editor](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1210722/confluence-source-editor?tab=overview&hosting=server) is absolutely worth getting. It's free. If you're not the Confluence administrator, it's possible that Source Editor is installed but just not showing since it can be made visible for certain groups of users.

The \<\> will not appear on new, unpublished pages, though, only on existing pages to be updated.


author: Andy Gladstone
body: [@Amna Shahbaz](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4761630) it's hard to tell what the issue is since the snippet cuts off the top and sides of the table. Is the issue perhaps that you merged cells by mistake?

How to create an anonymous Feedback board in Confluence?
Asked by Gohil Jay:

Is there any possibility in confluence,

+ to create an anonymous feedback page?

I hope you are well.

Although Confluence doesn't have these as native features, you may find Apps from the [Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=dataCenter&product=confluence) that fit your requirements.

At least two of these requirements might be possible with [ConfiForms](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211860/confiforms-data-forms-workflows?tab=overview&hosting=datacenter).

I will definitely look for that, and would it be possible to make a simple small feedback form on Conf. by any chance?

author: Thiago Masutti
body: Hi [@Gohil Jay](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4680452)

I don't recall any native feature on Confluence that would allow quick creation of a feedback form.

We often refer to a feature in Jira that allows embedding forms on other systems, such as Confluence.

If you have Jira on your company you can take a look at the [Issue Collector](https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/using-the-issue-collector-938847338.html) feature.

User without permission can access other page?

We have extranet Confluence space which is restricted to Group A, however user from Group B can access this page- any idea why?

and how do i enforce the restriction?

Thanks.


Answers:
author: Babs Adewole
body: Try to confirm the user does not belong in both groups. Else he/she shouldn't have access. You could also take a look at your space permissions more closely

If the space does not have access to the Group-B then none of the users of Group B can access the Space.

Page Restriction inherit not work as expected
Asked by me:

Hi

I create "parent page" then set edit restriction on it. and set only "user1" able to edit this page. everyone can view.

then create "child page" as expected it should inherit restriction from "parent page" but NOT!

---parent page (edit restriction apply on this page, ONLY "user1" able to edit this page)

--------parent page (it show inherit form parent but EVERYONE able to edit this page!)

FYI: I follow [this instruction](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/child-page-does-not-inherit-page-restrictions-from-parent-page-637960213.html) but problem still remain!

Yeah, only the View restrictions are inherited and not the edit restrictions. You have to individually set the edit restrictions on the child page.

And yes, you will need to set the edit permissions on each page individually, as far as I know. [@Ravi Dixit](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4698672) from Atlassian team may know the alternative, but I dont think this is possible without an extra plugin or something

Format Children Display Macro
Asked by David Gfrerer:

Is there any way to format the content displayed by the "Children Display" Macro?  

I want to put the content into a table or something like a box, change background and font colour, etc.   

Maybe any of you have experiences. Thank you!


Answers:
author: Andrii Maliuta
body: Hello [@David Gfrerer](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4844882) ,

You cannot directly change the "Children Display" Macro being part of the Confluence platform (you could try to get it from the source jars , but it should NOT be done, you should not change the source code of the platform).

What you can do\< I suppose:

1. Create your own macro with Atlassian SDK and make the logic you need
2. Change how the "Children Display" Macro displays the information directly in the page UI after content is rendered using HTML/CDD/JS code in HTML macro or in Space/Global custom styles.

comments: author: David Gfrerer
body: Hallo [@Andrii Maliuta](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/484201)

Thanks for your quick response, I basically got you.

What do you mean by source jars? Can I then get the source code of the macro just to copy it and use it in my own macro so I just have to change the formatting part?


author: Andrii Maliuta
body: [@David Gfrerer](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4844882) ,

The bundled plugins are located in {CONFLUENCE_HOME}\\confluence\\WEB-INF\\atlassian-bundled-plugins\\...

e.g. TOC plugin - **toc-plugin-6.1.4.jar**

Please refer to these docs to read about SECURITY and RISKS :

author: Zoriana Bogutska_Adaptavist_
body: Hi [@Andrii Maliuta](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/484201) As an alternative solution, you can try to use [Content formatting macros for Confluence.](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/247/content-formatting-macros-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview&utm_source=referral&utm_medium=Comment_Format-Children-Display-Macro_20220912&utm_campaign=Atlassian-Community&utm_id=Atlassian-Community)

This plugin allows you to customise some things by putting the children display macro inside div macro and then using the CSS stylesheet macro to change colours and etc.

But I don't know if it will match your use case, and it requires some CSS knowledge. So if you need any help, please let me know (this app is developed by my team).

Welcome to the Atlassian Community.

You might be able to circumvent it by working with your Confluence administrators to [disable the clickjacking protection](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-page-does-not-display-in-an-iframe-827335781.html), although this might not be safe.

There might be better options to allow it for targeted systems if you can rewrite headers through proxy or load balancer.

There's an example on this Jira feature request: <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-67896>.

I have a page that I want to save but I get the message: A page with the title x already exists
Asked by poconnor3:

There is a help article that says another user should open the original page and rename it. I did that, but when the edited page was saved ,it has the new, edited name. How can I get back to the old name?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Hi [@poconnor3](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3341857)

Confluence is a wiki, and most wiki systems go for unique page names. Confluence is a little weak on that and goes for "unique page names within a defined space", but it still applies. You cannot have pages with the same name (if it's Confluence, then "in the same space" gets added to the rule)

You will need to look at the two pages you have and compare their names very carefully. "Same name" messages only happen when they are in the same space and 100% identical.

Confluence Page Permissions Tracking
Asked by Matt Sardi:

Good Afternoon, I am new to learning Jira and Confluence and was wondering what is the best way to view the permissions for restricted pages. I am site admin and when I try to open a couple of pages, I get the following error:  

"You've stumbled on restricted content  
This is because it's inheriting restrictions from a parent page. A space admin or the person who shared this page may be able to give you access."  
I'm not looking to grant access to myself to the page, I'm looking to see if:  
A) Does this page exist, was it deleted and thus the reason for the error?  
B) Which page is this inheriting permissions from?  
C) Who owns and can see the page (there is no help on the page and I can't request access)?  
Thank you in advance.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Matt Sardi](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4511238) There is not a great way to do this. There are no delivered reports for specific pages or spaces. If you have a premium license there is a report to inspect a [user's permission](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/inspect-a-users-permissions/). There are several apps that can provide custom reporting and would allow you to build your own reports. If you know what the page is and what space it resides in you can see if it exists in space settings \> manage pages. As a space admin you will be able to [view and change restrictions](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/add-or-remove-page-restrictions/). You will be able to see which page it is inheriting from because you will not be able to change it on the page and it will tell you it is inheriting the permissions. As far as ownership that is tricky. Anyone that has the ability to apply page permissions and has edit access on the page will be able to make the changes which means they could technically own it.

comments: author: Nidhi Raj
body: Thank you Brant, couldn't have said it better myself!

One additional point regarding Question A - for deleted pages there is a different error message. See the screenshot attached. So no, deletion of the page is likely not the cause of the error.![Deleted Content Error.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/196106i478C77E2FF83BED7/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Deleted Content Error.png")

Are you still facing the issue?

1. There's no way to change permissions for multiple spaces at once. However, you could [set default space permissions](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/customize-default-space-content/), which will apply to all new spaces.
2. I wonder why this would be - unless you changed the default space permissions and locked it down and then created your spaces, I am not sure why the new users can't access any content. We may have to help you out on a case-specific basis.
