Nested Groups in Confluence
Asked by Peter Munsch:

Question: does Confluence have support for nested groups in their roadmap?


Answers:
author: AnnWorley
body: Hi Peter,

Confluence server has supported nested groups for external directories such as LDAP since version 3.5: [Support nested groups](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-17150). We have this guide with more details: [Managing Nested Groups](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/managing-nested-groups-229838455.html)

For the Confluence internal directory, we have this suggestion ticket open: [Ability to create Nested Groups on Confluence Internal Directory](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-37451) Based on the status of the issue I do not think it is scheduled to be worked on but you may communicate directly with the development team by commenting/voting on the issue. Doing so will add you as a watcher on the ticket so you will know if the status is updated.

Thanks,

Ann

Monitor changes in confluence page hierarchy
Asked by Julian Prentl:

Hi all,

we want to move all our interface contracts to confluence now, but some colleagues have some points they?re complaining about.

One of them is, that they can?t monitor the changes in the whole hierarchy now, but only the changes of a single page.

Is there some functionality which gives you a hint when somebody created a new version of a page within a hierarchy ?

Thanks in advance and greetings,

Julian


Answers:
author: Patrick Cartier [Candylio]
body: Hi [@Julian Prentl](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1501066),

Just to clarify, you'd like to know when someone moves a page within the hierarchy or when they add a page to a hierarchy?

You are correct that they can monitor the changes of a single page in the version history.

To see when a new page is added you could use the [Recently Updated Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/conf59/recently-updated-macro-792499187.html).

Unfortunately you can't see when a page was moved but there is a ticket still in consideration here:

<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-5231>

If I'm understanding your question correctly this should help.

comments: author: Julian Prentl
body: Hi, almost ... :-) (many thanks for your reply nonetheless! :-) ),

what I want to know is, when somebody added, deleted or edited a page within the hirarchy.

The comparission to word is the best way to explain it.

In Word you have a big document with many many chaptors, but when you activate the monitor changes option you see all changes when you scroll through and can even move through the different changes with a next-previous system.

In confluence you have many sub pages and you don?t at a glance, if someone did any changes in a sub-page of your "document"

That?s one point my users have problems with when they have to move from word to confluence .....

Confluence PDF Stylesheet

Hello,

I am trying to add a code to customize my pdf page export.

below is the code, but the problem is there is no space after content to start actual page Title.

I have attached an attachment please refer the same.

font-size: 8pt;  
}  
}


Answers:
author: R. Fuerst
body: Hi Shruthi,

The PDF generator creates 3 different rules for the top of the [@Bonifacp](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1543366): @top-left, @top-center, @top-right. If you just want the text to go to the right of the logo, you can use the @top-right rule instead of the @top-center rule. I believe this would move the "Ensemble Requirements Document" text up.

You could then add some bottom padding and change the top padding to allow for more space. An example of what I'm thinking as applied to the code you shared looks like this:

```
@top-right

{?

background-image:url(/download/attachments/255066264/enphase.jpg?api=v2);

page-break-after:always;

background-repeat:no-repeat;

background-position:left;

?

padding-top: 20px;

padding-bottom:40px;

display: inline-block;

content: "Ensemble Requirements Document";

white-space: pre;

font-family: ConfluenceInstalledFont, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;

font-size: 15pt;
```

If this wasn't what you're trying to do, it would be great if you could share a mockup or screenshot of how you want the text to look with the image. :)

Additionally, if you haven't seen our advanced documentation on PDF export customization, please see it below:

* <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/advanced-pdf-export-customizations-198806890.html>

comments: author: shruthi sj
body: Hello [@R. Fuerst](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/524126),

I tried your code, where image and heading itself doesn't appear. :(

Thanks \& Regards,

Shruthi


author: R. Fuerst
body: Hi Shruthi,

I'm sorry to hear that didn't work! To be honest, I am still unclear on what exactly you're trying to achieve. If you could provide some mockups of how you'd like the top should look or describe in a bit more detail what you're looking for, I can try to provide an alternative.

As I understand it, currently "Ensemble Requirements Document" is encroaching on the space where the title of the page should be ("Ensemble SRD" in the screenshot). Please let me know if I misunderstood.

Best,  
Rachel

Questions for Confluence - Rich Edit Box does not render in Firefox
Asked by Joe McCall:

We're an Atlassian Cloud customer and we've just enabled the "Questions for Confluence" plugin. When I load the "Ask Question" page the description text box is empty. When I load an existing question the reply section just spins indefinitely. I've tried to restart with a fresh profile in Firefox and no add-ons enabled, but the issue still persists. See attached screenshots.

The console in the developer tools reports:

```
Unhandled promise rejection DOMException: The operation is insecure. https://confluence-questions.prod.atl-paas.net/js/vendor.f5092b58effb3310c81b.js

Any ideas?


Answers:
author: Joe McCall
body: Turns out it is because the domain \`confluence-questions.prod.atl.paas.net\` requires access to third-party cookies, which I had turned off as a general policy. I had to add this domain to the exception list in Firefox:

![Screenshot_20180627_091418.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/25577i006EC588A6FA9A24/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot_20180627_091418.png")

Now it appears to work, but now I have another browser customization to maintain between workstations.

If anyone at Atlassian reads this, please host your js on your own domain so I don't have to make special exceptions to work with your product. Thank you!

Some users cannot post comments to specific parts of the page
Asked by Maxim Ivanov:

We have an issue with comments - users from a group, which is allowed to add and delete comments in a workspace cannot always do it. The interesting part is that they can post anywhere on the page except the table with product specifications - the only place where it is actually needed.

Where should I dig?

Thanks!

Max


Answers:
author: Jens Iwanenko
body: Hi Max.

There are a couple of situations where inline comments don't work. It's not an exact science and includes a lot of guesswork. This is what I can recall out of experience and on short notice:

* Inside Macros  
  Inline Comments don't work in the majority of my user macros (maybe all?). They do sometimes work in macros added with plugins, but not always.
* Inside Tables (yeah, you figured, huh?)  
  Same as with macros. Tables are a bit tricky. Usually if I can't comment in a table, I have marked a word by double-clicking it in a cell that only contains exactly that word. What helps about 30% of the time is to only highlight a portion of the word. But most of the time I have to look for a cell with more text that's adjacent and comment there.
* In Headlines  
  I haven't quite figured out yet, when commenting headlines doesn't work. But it happens.

So if your users can comment textblocks on the very same page but have difficulties only with posting comments in tables, the trick is to get creative. If all else fails, they can still add a page comment and include a row number (if you have automatic numbering turned on) or similar so that the context is clear.

Of course, in your special case, there may be other reasons why commenting doesn't work. But that'd be out of my league. ;-)

-- Jens

comments: author: Jens Iwanenko
body: Oh, there's another situation that I assume to be the reason for inline comments sometimes not working where they should:

If you have solved a previous inline comment, it is not deleted completely. The editor always tries to retain the position of solved comments. Sometimes the highlighting for a new comment starts after the \*opening\* tag of a former comment and ends after the \*closing\* tag. If that happens, I assume (guesswork) that creating the comment fails.

If all comments are resolved in a page, you could try to remove all the inline comment tags with the source editor. I can not guarantee that to work and I am not 100% certain that it will be without follow-up issues. The comments will still be available from the Resolved Comments menu but they will have lost context.


author: Maxim Ivanov
body: Hi Jens!

Thanks for very detailed response, I will definitely look into those options.

Funny thing is that nobody experiences any troubles with comments anywhere in any document except this one group of users. So I am thinking there might be some maybe hidden dependancies on other permissions, which I am not seing


author: Maxim Ivanov
body: Okay, so what I did was create a new group with absolutely similar permissions and move the users there. This solved my problem

* Does it only work from your IP address and not the URL?
* Are you behind any firewall?
* Does the same occur with all tested browsers?

author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: That usually means either the network is not letting you get there, or the service is down.

Check on the server first - is Confluence running, and if it is, can you reach that url from the server?

If you can, then you know the problem is your network.

If you can not, then you need to look at the firewall settings on the server, and then check the confluence logs to see why Confluence is not serving (confluence-home/logs/atlassian-confluence.log and confluence-install/log/catalina.out)

I haven't used the cloud, but it looks like the following is possible

You can alternatively just disable Download All on a space by space basis by adding the above CSS to individual Space Stylesheets instead:

1. Go to the space and choose **Space Tools** \> **Look and Feel** from the bottom of the sidebar
2. Choose **Stylesheet** then **Edit**.
3. Paste the above CSS into the text field.
4. Save

Hiding Comments and viewing page hits on a confluence page?
Asked by Kuber Mansotra:

Hi Guys,

I am trying for the below two things without any luck and was wondering if you guys can help.

1. Hiding/restricting comments from a particular page if I am the admin(**in Confluence**) without a macro
2. Somehow getting to see the number of users who have accessed the page (page hits)(**in confluence**) without a macro

Would be really helpful if any assistance can be provided on the above.

Just to let you guys know that **html (html-xhtml)** " is not enabled on purpose in the Enterprise instance of confluence in my org and I am aware about hiding comments using this macro.

Thanks,

Kuber


Answers:
author: Neha Lokhande
body: Hi Kuber,

<br />

For the 1st question:

This functionality is not available out-of-the-box in Confluence. We had a feature request open for this functionality, but it got closed as we concluded to not implement this feature. For your reference, this is the ticket: [CONFSERVER-7742](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-7742)

There's a plugin that could serve as a workaround for you, if not the HTML macro -- [HideElements for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211757/hideelements-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview)

<br />

For the 2nd question:

If you do not want to use a macro and are using a reverse proxy, you could use the [apache logs viewer](https://www.apacheviewer.com/features/) to see the hits.

There's also a plugin available in our Marketplace that allows you to track page views, please take a look if it helps -- [Page view analytics for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1218023/page-view-analytics-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview)

Sql server parameterized query to match exact word
Asked by ilakkuvaselvi manoharan:

Answers:

body: I am using the following sql to replace all occurrences of one string with another.

Example: I want to update all occurrences of 'test' with 'prod'.

I want to avoid matching strings like 'test123', '123test', 'testiest'......

This is just an example. These search and replace strings are configurable.

This is the sql that I am using:

String sql = "UPDATE BODYCONTENT SET BODY = CAST(REPLACE(CAST(BODY as nvarchar(max)), ? , ?) as ntext) WHERE BODY like '%\[\^a-z0-9\]' + ? + '\[\^a-z0-9\]%' OR" +

" BODY like '%\[\^a-z0-9\]' + ? OR" +

" BODY like ?";

But here, it is matching 123test, test123, testest and updating it as 123prod, prod123 and prodprod. How can I avoid this behavior?

I am trying something similar with another database

select \* from dbo.persons where LastName like '%\[\^a-z\]\[\^0-9\]Dan\[\^a-z\]\[\^0-9\]%' OR

LastName like 'Dan\[\^a-z\]\[\^0-9\]%' OR
