How to publish the space to a live published website for the public?
Asked by Suyeon:

I want to publish a space where we have multiple pages of our guidelines for our users. I did everything that's related to giving the access to the anonymous groups for each page and space, including from the admin setting (global permission) as well. However, when I open the public link, each content/block shows 'open in confluence'. But I thought the merit of public link is to display the contents without using the confluence; for example, if you publish the page from notion for the public, it shows the contents straight up without forcing the user to use the notion. Anyone knows how to do that?![confluence.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/326485iC38D37B15D6A5D98/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "confluence.PNG")cess to open this'.

author: Emily _ DevSamurai
body: Hi [@Suyeon](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5507979) , welcome to the Community,

As far as I understand, to make a page public, you can:

* **Set Up Public Access:** you can refer to **[this document](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/set-up-and-manage-public-links/)** by Atlassian, regarding setting up control over whether spaces can allow public links or not, then share the URL of the Confluence space with the public. The document will guide you on setting up the access for various levels, from global, space, to site. Please also make sure that you have the right permission to set it up.
* **Use Atlassian plugins:** There are many vendors offering plugins that assist you with publishing Confluence page. My organization is currently using **[Scroll Viewport for Confluence by K15t](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1211636/scroll-viewport-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud)** , and it's really useful. You can consider giving it a try. Otherwise, you can browse the **[Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/)** to see which one suits your needs the most.

I hope this will help :)

author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Suyeon](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5507979)

* I second the [@Emily _ DevSamurai](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5239392) 's opinion on **Scroll Viewport,** we're using it too at Emplifi.
* The content that does not display might be restricted (private)
  * a restricted page in a public space
  * content shared via an excerpt from a restricted space
  * a link points to restricted content (restricted page, page in a private space)

Typically, the method for allowing public access to a Confluence space is straightforward. Forget public links, forget playing with individual pages...

Simply allow anonymous access for the space in Space's permissions setup. Use page restriction to exclude individual pages.

The table column size is automatically changed in view mode
Asked by Jess Tran:

I have my table columns in confluence sized properly in edit mode. However, when i saved it, in view mode, the columns size are automatically-changed in a way that it's so hard to read. This is very inconvenient. Hope Confluence developer team can fix


Answers:
author: Rodrigo
body: Good day [@Jess Tran](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5507985) and welcome to the community!

Is your table nested within a macro? I have observed that, when placed within macros, table sizes can automatically adjust to fit the text or content inside.

In case that is your experience, a workaround is to modify the size of the table manually, which will cause it to respect the given size when published.

But naturally, hope this changes in the future.

With friendly regards  
Rodrigo

comments: author: Bj?rn Schill
body: We have a similar problem. Most, but not all of the tables in our confluence documents are suddenly displayed with a very wide first column, compressing the other columns to just a few character width.  

while editing everything looks ok. Manualy resizing the columns by a few pixels doesn't change anything, after saving the tables are still displayed with said wide first column.

The problem affects export to pdf, too

Edit: in our instance the problem appears with tables that are within macros and with tables that are just part of a page.  
Some of the pages haven't been edited in the last few month


author: Bj?rn Schill
body: Update: resizing the whole table (action thingie on the right of the table) does indeed work. After saving the table looks as intended.

We were trying to resize the columns, the resize function for the whole table was new for us.

Still, it will be quite an annoyance to do this all by hand in our rather large confluence instance


author: Rodrigo
body: Hello [@Bj?rn Schill](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3794668)!

Does this happen for your team on Cloud? Does it trigger with other browsers or in incognito mode?

Here, placing a simple table should not cause any resizing and stick to an even distribution. Some other factor (or browser setting) could influence this behavior, and a quick test in other browsers could help.

Best regards  
Rodrigo

author: Bj?rn Schill
body: Hey,  

we use Cloud, yes.  
It happened in safari, firefox, chrome and vivaldi.

I couldn't reproduce the behaviour on a new page yesterday, but it appeared on pages that had existing tables that were a few days old up to pages that were a few years old

Typing into a page view panel
Asked by Brent J Barcus:

I would like to be able to type data into a panel or something similar while still in page view. I've been able to find this type of capability using an excel-like table app but I can't find it anywhere else. I am trying to minimize or eliminate the need to go into edit mode for the page.

Create a child page (created from template macro ) under a different parent page
Asked by priyanka.massey:

Does Confluence allow pages created from buttons (Create from template macro) to automatically become child pages under a designated parent page?

So for example if a create from template button exists on parent page X. Is it possible that the new pages created from the button automatically become child pages under a different parent page 'Y'?

Note we have already tried doing this - [Create from Template and Specify Parent Page (atlassian.com)](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Create-from-Template-and-Specify-Parent-Page/qaq-p/290661)

I don't think there is a way to create the new page under a different parent page.

Display headers based on page restrictions
Asked by laura_herrera:

Hello,

We would like to display a certain wording on the header of the confluence pages in the UI and when exporting the document, depending on the page restrictions.

For example if the page it's restricted we would like the header to be "RESTRICTED" and if the page it's not restricted the header to be "INTERNAL".

Is there any way to do this ?

DURING jql issues

Hello. I am having an issue with a JQL, could I please get your assistance/advice. I am trying to see all project tickets that were unresolved between X and Y dates, using the DURING function. This is the JQL I am using:

project = "GD" AND (createdDate \>= 2024-04-15) AND resolution WAS Unresolved DURING (2024-07-01, 2024-08-01)

It is not returning any results. Can you please tell me if I have written the JQL incorrectly (and if so, how to correct it), or if this is an issue/bug on Atlassian's end that I should be aware of.

author: John Funk
body: Hi Jenny - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

There might be a bug there. However, I used WAS NOT Unresolved and it gave me issues with the value of Unresolved.

You might actually use Status instead of Resolution and WAS NOT IN. Like this:

Status WAS NOT IN (Done, Canceled, Completed)

Whatever the Done category statuses are for that project.

How to Automatically Close GitHub Branches When Jira Story Moves to "Done" Status?
Asked by Lunara Inashova:

Hello Atlassian Community,

I'm looking for guidance on how to automatically close GitHub branches when a Jira story transitions to the "Done" status. We're using Jira Software for project management and GitHub for version control, and we want to ensure that branches associated with completed stories are deleted to keep our repository clean. I'm wondering if this can be accomplished through Jira's automation features or if I need to integrate another tool to achieve this. If anyone has experience with this or can suggest the best approach, I would greatly appreciate your advice.

Thank you!


Answers:
author: Marc - Devoteam
body: Hi [@Lunara Inashova](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5571430)

Is there a way to bind JavaScript (from a fragment) to the finished loading of a Kanban Board view?
Asked by Stefan Stadler:

Hi team,

I am trying to execute some code for Kanban boards. The code is working fine if I click a card and the issue details open up. However, this is not happening when the page is loaded. The best trigger I could find is the following:

AJS.toInit(funtion () {

myCodeGoesHere;

});

However, from the logging, all objects to be accessed are not available, so this seems to be too early.

In the browser logs, I could see a message like this:

callback: Finished callbacks for gh.work.pool.rendered

Is there a way to attach the execution of my code to this event? Or is there any Jira event that marks the completion of a board content?

Thanks!

Stefan


Answers:
author: Stefan Stadler
body: After doing investigation and researching, I have found a set of events specific for boards (Greenhopper), which work like a charme. This has been described in this thread:

[JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED not working correctly on agile board - Jira Development / Jira Server - The Atlassian Developer Community](https://community.developer.atlassian.com/t/jira-events-new-content-added-not-working-correctly-on-agile-board/56811)

In short, looking at the available events did the trick. Now, I can use the following code to trigger the modification whenever a column is updated:

```
(function ($) {
   $(function () {
      AJS.$(GH).bind('pool-column-updated', function (event, data) {
       //my code goes here
      });
   });
})(AJS.$);
```

I hope this can help others as well.

Stefan

Typical startup of javascripts is when the DOM is loaded. You can achieve this using something similar to: stuff mentioned at [stackoverflow.](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12637725/what-is-the-dom-ready-event)

comments: author: Stefan Stadler
body: Hi Dick,

it is not enough to wait for the DOM to be loaded. This is already happening but the DOM in a Kanban board seems to be populated using JavaScript after this event is fired.

I have now tried using $(window).load but even with that, the jQuery selector return no elements, while it returns elements when clicking an issue so that the panelRefreshed Event is triggered.

So the question is more: Is there a way to figure out when the content of the board (i.e. the cards) are displayed?

* A wiki page is linked to a Jira issue.
* In case the Jira issue is updated an e-mail is sent.
* I want to add the URL of the linked wiki page to the e-mail.

I do not know the smart value for the 'wiki page url'.


author: Prachi Bolar
body: Hi Peter,

Thank you for your response :)

So here you would not be able to send the link directly.

Please find the steps on how to do so.

- Create a custom field

* Go to **Jira Settings** \> **Issues** \> **Custom Fields** \> **Add Custom Field**.
* Choose a field type like **"URL Field"** or **"Text Field"** and create it. Name it something relevant, like **"Confluence"**
* Add the custom field in your relevant project, Please make sure to enter the confluence URL into this custom field in the issue
* Get the custom field id

Example

Trigger \> when issue transition \> Issue fields condition \> send email

Please find the Confluence page related to the issue:  
{{issue.customfield_ID}}

The email will contain the confluence page

Can I change the default Kanban board for at particular Jira team
Asked by Louis:

Hi, hope someone can help with Jira defaults?

Some users have made their own kanban board (Board-YYY) that only looks at the issues that are assigned to the members of their particular team (Team-YYY) in a lager scale project (Project-XXX)

Now they experience, that each time they navigate to a UserStory (issue) in the Project-XXX the default Board changes to Board XXX for the project and not their preferred board (Board-YYY)

Any easy way to change the default Kanban board for only the members of Team YYY to always be the Board-YYY?


Answers:
author: John Funk
body: Hi Louis,

I just use a bookmark in my browser. That's the easiest way since there is no "default" board. BTW, boards are listed in alphabetical order, so an enterprising user would name their board accordingly to have it show first. :-)


author: Nikola Perisic
body: Hi,

By default there isn't a way to define a default board. An alternative here would be to create a quick filter that will have this ability.
