How can I change the column width in Page Properties Report?
Asked by Gamze:

My page properties report looks horrible. I already googled this problem and realised that there is apparently no solution for this?

I am wondering, why exactly is this one column so squeezed?

Application Disk Space for Confluence is full
Asked by Martin James:

The application disk space for our Confluence site is always full even when we continue to give it more storage. What could be causing this?

Between 2:00am and 3:00am it drops, then drops again between 5:00am and 6:00am.

Sometimes the application disk space improves but overall it decreases.

I understand why the database disk space drops, but I can't quite figure this other problem out.


Answers:
author: Minh Tran
body: you can go to both Confluence and Home folder and try this command to find out the top 5 items that took most of your space?

```
du -sh * | sort -n -r | head -n 5
```


author: O
body: It might be performing a backup around that time.

Checking the "logs" and "backups" folders might be a good place to start. Both can be found under the Confluence home/data directory.


author: JP _AC Bielefeld Leader_
body: Hi,

attachments / files are stored in disk \& not in the database. I assume the "application disk space" is the space used by the Confluence server installation \& the data directory. Correct?

How do I add an existing page and it's children in a 'page properties report' macro
Asked by Varun:

So there is a product requirement page with a 'page properties report' macro.

New requirement pages are being generated using this macro and that is fine.

Under a hygiene/cleanup activity, I need to move the older requirement pages under this one.

I was able to move the pages with the 'move' option but they won't appear under the macro table.

How may I do that ?


Answers:
author: Max Foerster - K15t
body: Hi [@Varun](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3567968)

the page properties report macro is relying on several filters to display the right content. One of them is at least a single label. Could you please check the configuration of the report macro and make sure the moved pages are matching the criteria?

Best, Max

comments: author: Varun
body: Hi [@Max Foerster - K15t](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/693014)

The macro has defined only 2 filters. label: 'requirements' and space: 'my-space'.

The parents of the new pages that I moved under this one has those labels, but it still won't pick them up.

If I search by that label, I am able to see all pages. Also, if I remove the label from a page which is already displayed in that macro, it stops showing that page.

But it won't pick up the moved ones

Hyperlink file: onenote: callto:
Asked by S?bastien Oggier:

Confluence won't use link do filer / apps like:

* file:///\\\\Filer\\xyz\\abc\\

How can I do that?


Answers:
author: JP _AC Bielefeld Leader_
body: Hi,

are you sure this is a Confluence issue or a browser issue? Direct linking to files is browser/user dependent \& a security risk. Make sure that the used protocols (onenote:) is supported by all your client devices (PC browsers, mobile devices etc...) otherwise users using these clients cannot open the links.

I'm pretty sure the link in Confluence is displayed, but when you copy \& paste the link in a new browser tab, you'll get the same error w/o Confluence involved.

Answers:
author: Max Foerster - K15t
body: Hi [@Malin B?ckebo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3676516) ,

this is very simple as you're using the cloud product. If you have no other site admin around, please open a support ticket with Atlassian. This is also recommended in the documentation:

[Cannot Access Site Admin Account](https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloudkb/cannot-access-site-admin-account-770802088.html)

After that, the admin is able to recover the space permissions, make himself a space admin and edit the space permissions. And that's how it's done:

[Manage and recover space admin permissions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/assign-space-permissions-724764762.html#AssignSpacePermissions-managepermManageandrecoverspaceadminpermissions)

Include Page Macro, not able to use sub pages in space
Asked by Rob DeVries:

Hello, I would like to use information on some pages and have that information be repeated in other space pages. It seems that the Include Page macro would do this for me and it seems to work when I did a small test. The information to be repeated is on a sub page in the space and when I try to enter the address its not listed.

How do sub pages get entered?

Thank you,


Answers:
author: Davin Studer
body: The way the page include macro works is you put the macro on a page where you where you want to include the content from another page. You don't need to put the page hierarchy information into the macro. You just put in the page name. Since page names must be unique within a space there is no need to specify anything other than the page name in the macro.

Can't change page layout to display ictures
Asked by Anthony Lam:

I create Confluence pages to show screenshots to the team. In the past, I could show the images side by side. I captured a sreenshot for how I want to display the image.

Screenshot of what I mean below.

Answers:
author: David Benson _draw_io_
body: Saving of a page failing is very unlikely to relate to the draw.io macro. Unable to communicate with server means Atlassian's servers, since we don't have any backend servers.

It might be a temp outage, what's the http return code in the browser debugger?


author: Diego
body: Hello there!

As I understand, the issue that is currently affecting your instance is that saving pages with the Draw.io macro does not work. There is a list of things we can check. Here we go:
> 1. *Try the same procedure with another browser*
> 2. *Try the same procedure with a clear browser cache/incognito mode*
> 3. *Try to publish pages without the Draw.io macro*
> 4. *Try to create a new page with nothing except the Draw.io macro and then publish it*

If this happens to be directly connected with the existence of a Draw.io macro in your pages, you can reach Seibert Media via support:
> * **[\[Atlassian Marketplace\] draw.io Diagrams for Confluence - Support](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1210933/draw-io-diagrams-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=support)**

Why can I not add a column macro to my section macro?
Asked by Alex Pickard:

The instructions for the column macro state "Must be used within a Section Macro." But when I add the column macro (with my cursor inside the section macro) the column macro appears outside of the section macro. I publish and nothing seems to happen.

Also, I cannot create a panel macro within a section macro. When I add it, it appears below the section macro, and I cannot drag and drop into the section macro.

Anyone know what is going on?

Thanks.


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello there, [@Alex Pickard](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3631173) ! Nice to see new faces around.

So, looking at your issue description I understand that you are facing issues with Macro Nesting. ++*This is not limited to the Section + Column macro combo. This stems from the fact that we are not able to nest bodied macros in the New Editor (Fabric)*++. Here is the report on this:
> * ++**[\[Confluence Cloud\]\[CONFCLOUD-68323\] Nest Expand or other Bodied Macros in another Macro](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-68323)**++

The term "Bodied Macros" encapsulates all the ++*macros that have the ability to display content from within the macro itself*++. Hence the incompatibility between Section and Column macro.

The documentation that we currently have, ++*points towards the Old Editor (tinyMCE)*++, which is why it points out to the usage of both of these macros together.

The documentation for the Column Macro can be found here:
> * ++**[\[Confluence Cloud\]Column Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/column-macro-724765176.html)**++

The first line in our document says the following:
> *Used with the Section macro to define columns on a page.*

This usage can be replaced with the fact that ++*Fabric (our new editor) is based on columns. By default, the editor will display a Single Narrow Column.*++ We do have the ++*possibility of expanding it by clicking the \<- -\> symbol at the top right corner*++ of our text field in the editor.

Beyond the one column, we can add more columns with the Layouts. Inside layouts, we can surely add the Column Macro and work from there.

For more context on the Fabric editor, we can check the following links:
> * **++[\[Confluence Cloud\] Add formatting to your page](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/add-formatting-to-your-page-724764836.html)++**

You need to use copy (ctrl+c) and paste (ctrl+v) the same as we use for the document to paste the content.
