Contribution Macro
Asked by Raphael Fellipe do Amaral:

I would like to know if there is any Macro that I can report the total contribution that a person made on a confluence page.

For example I have a table where the person will put the @\[deleted\] and a word file (training content)

I would like to use a macro that I can inform that on page "X" the person "Y" uploaded "10" files.


Answers:
author: repi
body: This macro may be suitable for you:

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/contributors-macro-183468956.html>

Can be found in the Macro Editor / Manager.

comments: author: Raphael Fellipe do Amaral
body: Hi Repi,  
Thanks for the answer.  
I tried to use this macro "Contributors"  
But it is bringing me the value of giving editions on the page.  
Below is a print of the page I'm creating.

- In column 1 "I have the name of the analyst" and in column 7 the file he placed.

My goal is for his name to appear in the Macro and the total number of files he put on this page.

As I made the edits my name appears.

How does one reopen a Draw.io diagram?
Asked by nealr:

I have Draw.io installed and I am stuck - how do I get it to go back to a previously added diagram so I can continue working on it?


Answers:
author: Marija Radovic
body: Hi,

so this is for draw.io on Confluence Server.

If you remember a Confluence page title/name where you created a diagram, you can find a page when typed into Search field (top right) and then you will find your diagram and continue editing it.

If you don't remember this, you can click a profile icon (top right) and you will find "Recently worked on" section.

If nothing helps, when you add a new draw.io macro, you will see "Recent" diagrams you created so you will be able to make a copy and continue working on it.

Kind regards,

Marija

comments: author: nealr
body: We have Confluence and Jira Software. We have a reproducible problem - the edit stuff for Draw.io is missing on the first system we ever set up. We have another, also running Jira Software, and Draw.io works fine there.

It's a mystery, but seems to be just our one system that is affected.


author: Marija Radovic
body: Hi,

\* What Jira server version and draw.io version are you using (the one you have edit issue with)? What is your SEN please?

\* Could you be more specific please? When you say "the edit stuff for Draw.io is missing" what does it mean exactly? If you could send a print screen, a video or anything so I could be sure I understand the issue completely.

Thanks,


author: nealr
body: Marija - I have a couple licenses on my account, we have about a dozen on someone else's. One of our other people talked to a developer here and they advised a reboot, which cleared the problem.

This is all there is to it - some times draw.io will show up like this, but if you hover over the diagram link, the tools popup does not appear.

So go ahead and close this, and I'll try to do better on screen shots next time I have trouble.

How to get Google to not index your Confluence Cloud space

Hey there - I've done a bunch of searching; but all the answers appear to be dated... wondering if there's a straightforward way to insert the 'noindex' code into each page of my Confluence space. I've tried adding HTML, Java, etc. via code snippet... no dice.

Content-Security-Policy on Cloud
Asked by Hugo Ingelmo:

Recently a client was asking us to implement Content-Security-Policy and/or X-Frame-Options in our addon.

After some discussion we still don't have a clear idea on the matter. Does it make sense to implement CSP in Confluence Cloud apps?

Our guess is that our frames won't work out of context unless you have a valid signed jwt. So we should be safe there.

Does Atlassian have any suggestion or answer on this matter?

Regards,

Hugo


Answers:
author: JimmyVanAU
body: May also be worth posting the question here <https://community.developer.atlassian.com/> :)


author: Jack [AppFox]
body: You should definitely configure the Content Security Policy (CSP) for your Apps in the Cloud.

CSP reduces the attack vector of [all kinds of vulnerabilities](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/CSP), e.g.

* Prevent inline scripts from running
* Restricting the domains that images, scripts, styles can come from

Sometimes, just by answering these questions, you can find things that are out of place.

Confluence taking forever to Save/Publish
Asked by Chloe_Naumowicz:

I keep having issues trying to save longer pages in Confluence. I tried removing images, copying text into plain text and removing links and still having issues. I was able to save more text when I copied the string from Jira to Notepad and then into Confluence, and I thought that would do the trick (despite being painfully time consuming) however, It doesn't seem to have helped as I'm trying to publish a page of 885 characters and the save is still in process after several minutes.

Are there page limit constrictions? I'm trying to move over user stories into Confluence for requirements gathering and this will be a nightmare if a page can only hold a paragraph of text.


Answers:

I am having the same issue. I already tried other browsers but same issue. Do you have other ideas to fix?

Best,  
cLaudia


author: Hazwan Ariffin
body: Try running it in incognito mode and see if that works. If that works, most likely there's a plugin or browser's extension on your browser that causes the issue. Try turning off one plugin at a time and then try again to see which plugin is causing the issue

Or you can simply try on a different browser.

If JIRA macro result is empty, can I replace it with a message?
Asked by Nancy Bonanno:

I'm trying to give help to some overwhelmed editors who need to fill in a lot of fields. It's a long story but the question is just...in Confluence (Server) can I use a JIRA macro to display tickets BUT if the filter is empty, it displays a message like "All good! Well done!" I'm thinking maybe wrap something in an HTML macro that displays the filter if results but a message if no results? (Clearly, I'm reaching here to encourage these people...) Thanks.


Answers:
author: Fabian Lim
body: Hi [@Nancy Bonanno](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3537740)

Unfortunately, I don't think this is possible out of the box. You may want to request a feature request here: <https://jira.atlassian.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa> and see if it gains enough interest for Atlassian to build it.

How to insert a table using text only ?
Asked by jeremy.nancel:

Hello,

I found a lot of documentation about how to create tables using text in markup and/or markdown but none of those solutions seems to work with me, it just displays the text I put in the editor as-is. I do not have a Insert \> Markup ( or markdown ) option.

I want to put a lot of elements into a table without having to put them one by one in each cell.

Can someone tell me how to do that ?

Thanks


Answers:
author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: Hi [@jeremy.nancel](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1458881) !

I'm not sure if this is your case, but we have an [app](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) which creates tables from CSV and TSV.

Here is an example: <https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+from+CSV+macro>

Maybe it will help.

comments: author: jeremy.nancel
body: Hello Katerina,

Thanks for the answer, that's definitely in the right direction but the page you linked only describes how to do it using user interface. I'd like to do it through an API call, meaning no macros, only pushing text through command-line without any user-friendly interface.

Any idea how to do that ?

Thanks


author: Katerina Kovriga {Stiltsoft}
body: As far as I know, the markup option was disabled in the new Cloud editor (not that we've used it before, cause our users prefer simple UI, but I still came across several complaints).

But you should be able to copy/paste your tables. For example, try this code:

\| \| mpg\| cyl\| disp\|  
\|:-----------------\|----:\|---:\|----:\|  
\|Mazda RX4 \| 21.0\| 6\| 160\|  
\|Mazda RX4 Wag \| 21.0\| 6\| 160\|  
\|Datsun 710 \| 22.8\| 4\| 108\|  
\|Hornet 4 Drive \| 21.4\| 6\| 258\|  
\|Hornet Sportabout \| 18.7\| 8\| 360\|  
\|Valiant \| 18.1\| 6\| 225\|

And you can't copy/paste it directly to your page from your browser - copy the code to your Notepad at first and only than re-copy it to your Confluence page. Kinda annoying, but it works.

Can logged in (but unlicensed) Service Desk users comment on Confluence articles?
Asked by Anna Alabau:

Hi all

Sorry if this is already solved somewhere but can't find it. The issue I have is the following:

We have Jira Service Desk set up (one per client with multiple users per "customer") so clients can report bugs etc. We also have spaces associated to those Service Desks so they can consult documents related to their websites (how-to, guides, etc.).

Some of those documents require either:

* general comments for the article and/or
* inline comments

I'm aware that licensed users can add comments generally and inline, but can't find a way to see if logged in users can comment on the articles they can see in their service desk workspaces.

I've tried to find the **service-desk-users** group in permissions, but it doesn't find a match.

I've tried to find a customer with access via their email in Individual users but no match either.

And I can't make the articles view for unauthorised users as it's not our intent.

Can somebody cast any light on this?

Many thanks

Anna

author: Jack Brickey

I realize that this is an old post and very likely you have moved on. However I wanted to try to answer this for future searchers. In order to be able to comment on pages in Confluence one needs to be licensed.

Can you please let me know how to overcome this error on GUI pls.![Jira Health.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/92314i69C2CF4D509F6954/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Jira Health.PNG")


Answers:
author: Daniel Ebers
body: Hi Roja,

there are [some workarounds which you could try out](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-45506).

From my opinion the information message was designed in such a prominent way that the user is reminded to upgrade any time soon.

Of course, as time of writing Confluence 7.3 is not yet EOL so I'd recommend to either fix the underlying cause for the error message - or - in case the server is behind a proxy or similar to check the workaround linked above.

Cheers,  
Daniel

How do i publish a new page without Spamming others?
Asked by Swathy Murthy:

Every time I create a new page in confluence it is spamming all the watchers. Is there any ways by which I don't have to bother others?


Answers:
author: Florian
body: Try "No email storm" from the marketplace. It's a plugin that allows you to save with or without notification. It works at least for updates. For newly created pages I am not sure.

In my oppinion confluence is a spam machine and the fact that new useres are forced to watch at least one space in the welcome wizzard is a nightmare. I personally teach all new users to visit their user profile as soon as possible an unsubscribe.

Is there any NATIVE way to pull in milestones and issues from gitlab?
Asked by Jake:

I see a couple solutions in marketplace to connect with gitlab and/or pull in information from it (I'm not real keen on the details). But I don't have a budget for that.

Is there any existing way to pull in gitlab milestones (ie: <https://gitlab.com/dashboard/milestones>) and also gitlab issues (ie: <https://gitlab.com/dashboard/issues?assignee_username=me>) each one into a section of its own in a Confluence page? I don't think I'm willing to go as far as writing my own plugin but if there were some way to fanangle it with an existing macro or even a simple dedicated script or if there a way to make your own macro - that would be great. I'd really appreciate any help I can get. Thanks.
