E-mail reminders in Trello
Asked by Jo Romaniello:

How do I get Trello to send e -mail reminders of upcoming due dates?


Answers:
author: Joel Morgan
body: I too am looking for a solution to this.

In the meantime, we use calendar power-up. On each card, we use a tremendous number of tasks per card and the due dates are great with the calendar powerup. Each day we review what is scheduled for that day. So now we are not missing tasks like we use to.  

But I would love to have reminders for some tasks!
Space Specific Email Notifications
Asked by Zach Carrizales:

Hello,

I am curious if anyone has found a way to add a missing level of notification resolution in the notification side of Confluence. As it stands right now, I can only get email notifications on edited pages using the "Show Changed Content" setting button in the email notification settings. However, one thing that is slightly annoying is the lack of configuration within this setup. It would be really nice if your parent "Show Changed Content' setting is activated, each individual 'Spaces' settings had this hierarchical child setting so that you can have some level of hierarchy and resolution in the configuration of the email notification settings.

I am sure this would provide a reasonable solution to a lot of the other questions and functional suggestions to improving Confluences suite of features.

Thanks,

-Zach

It isn't as though the features are lacking as much as it would seem that the feature functionality is misapplied and lacking the resolution to be truly useful.

I will submit a feature request through the link.

[Space copy] How to keep the same link format of the source ?
Asked by Donia:

Hi everyone,

When I create a sapce S2 as a copy of a space S1, I get some trouble with anchor links. Here is an explanation :

* In the space S1, I have a link to a given anchor written in this format : *<https://atlassian-link/wiki/spaces/>**S1** /pages/431464664/**Title+of+my+page**#anchor_name1*
* In the sapce S2, the copied link to the copied anchor is written in this format : *<https://atlassian-link/wiki/spaces/>**S2** /pages/**457834155**#anchor_name1*

As you can see, the page title in the second link is replaced by the page code. The problem is when the link in S2 appears in the same page as the anchor. When I click on this link, instead of going directly to the anchor, the page is ++reloaded++ before displaying the anchor.

If it's because of the link format, how can I keep the page title in the links of S2 (from the beginning) ? or is there another solution to automatically "correct" all the links in S2 ?

Thanks

Welcome to Confluence ?

While placing the anchor of page 1 in page 2

Follow the below format in the doc to place the anchor and that's the way of now

The redirect should happens quickly affecting only the page view to anchor placed in page 1 from page 2!!

comments: author: Donia
body: Thank you [@Pramodh M](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3691224)

But I'm talking about a completely different issue :)

- in the space S1 : I have a link1 in the page1 redirecting to an anchor1 in the same page (page1).

When I copy a space S2 from the space S1, the whole page1 is copied to a page2. In the page2, I have a link2 (copy of link1) redirecting to an anchor2 (copy of anchor1) in the same page2.

++The problem (in S2) is as follows++ :

- In S1 : when I click on the link1, I am redirected directly to the anchor1 in the same page1.

- In S2: when I click on the link2, the page2 is reloaded before redirecting me to the anchor2 which is also in the page2.

Is Open API Document Viewer for Confluence compatible with data center hosting?


Answers:
author: Scott
body: Hi James, welcome to the Atlassian Community!

There are a number of alternatives available in the Atlassian Marketplace for displaying Open API documentation in Confluence.

One of these is [Open API Documentation for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1215176/open-api-documentation-for-confluence?hosting=datacenter&tab=overview). (Full disclosure: I am the founder of O'Hara Group).

Open API Documentation for Confluence is available for all Confluence platforms (Server, Cloud \& Data Center), and is the most popular Open API app of its type (by install count).

Colouring by project when using filter
Asked by Anitha Jeyanthan:

I have filtered epics of quite a few different projects into an advanced roadmap view to create a portfolio overview. When I tried to colour by project, I am not getting different colours but the same for most of the project, which is not very useful. Is there are limit on how many projects can be filtered into one view or why would colouring by project not work?

If you use our [Table Filter and Charts for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?tab=overview&hosting=cloud) app and its [Chart from Table](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Chart+from+Table+macro) macro in your company, we can suggest trying the [Gantt Chart](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/Gantt+chart+type) instead of the Advanced Roadmap plan.

Our chart is a customized one and allows you to use a standard color panel and define your own HEX code colors using the **Colors in the table columns** option. Please [check here](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/Gantt+chart+type#ChartParameters-Setcolors) for more info.

How to built a chart using the Jira Issues macro - please [look here](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/Building+a+Gantt+Chart).

The only difference for you as a Cloud user will be that you'll need to nest macros via the [Table Toolbox](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Toolbox+macro), other steps will be the same.

This new macro allows you to work with fully functional Excel spreadsheets right in Confluence.

Thanks for your reply. Using the anchor would require me to set the links manually for every page.

I'm looking for an "automated" concept where the link on each page pointing to the next page in the hierarchy would be generated automatically by confluence everytime the page is beeing displayed.

Is there anything (makro or html code snippet) within Confluence supporting this?

Thanks

body: Hi Michael

Unfortunately not. We had to remove our idea and the buttons (Previous / Next) from the bottom of the pages. The effort to maintain the link to the next page for the whole page collection on the site would have been to much work.

Thanks for asking

Martin


author: Patrick Geering
body: I'm actually looking for the same solution: a dynamic link for previous or next page in order or to jump back to the top page

It's a must to have a dynamic links, because the order of the subsites may change as new sites will be added. And maintaining that with static links, that would be to much effort and also error prone.

I actually can't believe there's no simple solution to this .... :-(

Thanks in advance for your support, Pat.

How to restrict access to confluence

Answers:
author: Andy Gladstone
body: [@yolanda kelley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4735256) Welcome to Confluence.

Besides for answering your immediate inquiry, you will need to transfer ownership of the Confluence instance. To do that, follow the steps on this page:

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloudkb/cannot-access-site-admin-account-770802088.html>

It is not a painstaking process, but you will have to prove ownership of the space to transfer admin privileges to a new user.

Linking epics and adjusting timlines
Asked by Anitha Jeyanthan:

Welcome to the Community!!

It's basically the start date and due date that is associated with the timeline.

It depends on how your issues are managed with dependencies!!

Advanced Roadmaps only allows us to change the dates

Even Automation for Jira does not have a feature yet to check the dependencies!!

Please raise a support ticket to check with Atlassian on Automation feature

Thanks

comments: author: Anitha Jeyanthan
body: I think this doesn't really answer my question. Let me rephrase my question:

If Epic 1 is going from 1.1.22-1.3.22 and Epic 2 which is dependent on Epic 1 finishing goes from 2.3.22-30.4.22. How can I make sure that once I delay epic 1 by 3 months, epic 2 will be delayed as well without dragging the time bars manually?

Create a space with having first page only visible to a group
Asked by Michael Schnabel:

Hi,

we are running an onpremise Confluence server and do have multiple spaces running. We do have some spaces where we would like to have the entry page visible to a group of people but no pages on subtrees. This could be a subtree beside the entry page of a space as well.

This seems not possible with the permission system used within Confluence since you cannot remove permissions but need at least read permissions for the page tree at top of the page you want to restrict. But this read permissions are always inherited to subtrees. My idea was to create a user with space permissions set to zero. Then allow this user to access the page tree within the space with read only permission. But a user without global space permssion is not possible.

I guess this is simply not possible but I would be happy if someone has a hint how this could be done.

Thanks a lot.

Michael

License management server and multiple instances, or one instance only?

DataCenter license allows you to have multiple nodes without limit. If you have multiple instances that should remain different you need to have one DC license for each instance.

If you merge all those instances in one DC, you need just one DC license.

Hope this helps,
