Landing on the default board on launch no longer works with Trello
Asked by Miklos Philips:

After a recent update to the desktop MacOSX Trello version 2.11.1 landing on the default board on launch no longer works with Trello. I always land on the Home screen. Is this an improvement? Don't think so. Not only that, but "HOME" actually takes me to the "BOARDS" screen (tiled display of boards I'm on) where there is also a "HOME" in the navigation but that takes a user to what seem to be notifications. Thank you for mixing it all up Trello devs ad designers you are awesome and providing great consistency and usability with things that make sense for us, the users. #sarcasm! :)) Overall, this is an F in product design and UX!

Notifications
Asked by alberto geron:

Hello. The problem is, I have 2 dashboards, and right now I'm getting notifications only if someone is adding a comment to a note. I'd like, instead, to receive notifications every time is added, modified or removed a note or table or anything else. is it possible?

body: [@alberto geron](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3573730) yep you can watch a board, list or card as required to get whatever notifications you want:

Am getting an error "invalid return_url" when using the client.js Trello.authorize method
Asked by Tester Gcal:

Am using the client.js by including it in html with the API_KEY.

And calling as below

var authenticationSuccess = function() {  
console.log('Successful authentication' + Trello.token());  
};  

var authenticationFailure = function() {  
console.log('Failed authentication');  
};  
window.Trello.authorize({  
type: 'popup',  
name: 'Getting Started Application',  
scope: {  
read: 'true',  
write: 'true' },  
expiration: 'never',  
success: authenticationSuccess,  
error: authenticationFailure  
});

Then i see a page with invalid return_url.


Answers:
author: Ken Polleck
body: I had the same problem. You have add your ORIGIN (the location of the file that calls the Trello.authorize() to the list of "Allowed Origins" on <https://trello.com/app-key> . After I included my origin, I no longer got the "Invalid return_url" response, and it returned the desired token.  

Source of confusion: The comments under "Allowed Origins" on <https://trello.com/app-key> refer to sites that "your application is allowed to redirect back to following the authorization flow." That was a bit confusing to me. The list should include sites you want to redirect back to IN ADDITION TO the sites you are calling Trello.authorize() from.  

If you are thinking "I don't need a redirect" (and, in fact, I don't believe you can set a return_url when using client.js since you'll want your page to continue to render), then those comments under "Allowed Origins" could lead you to believe you don't need to specify anything there. That would be incorrect.  

Summary: Even if you want NO post-authorization re-direct, you still have to list an ORIGIN.  

A few other comments...  
- Wildcards as Allowed Origins didn't work for me.  
- You cannot specify file:// in Allowed Origins, so you cannot run your javascript off a local file.  
- Specifying a return_url works if you call the URL (like   
[https://trello.com/1/authorize?response_type=token\&key=\<YOUR KEY\>\&return_urli=\<YOUR RETURN_URL\>... ) yourself. If you use client.js to generate the URL, you aren't able to specify a return url.](https://trello.com/1/authorize?response_type=token&key=8863645ca62ba50e5199d4ebd6ec35aa&redirect_uri=https%3A%2F%2Fpolleck.com%2Fservices%2Fswiftaddresses%2Fgetaddresses.php&callback_method=fragment&scope=read%2Cwrite&expiration=never&name=Getting%20Started%20Application)  
- If you want to reset things to experiment more, just revoking access on [https://trello.com/\<YOUR_NAME\>/account](https://trello.com/kenpolleck/account) doesn't clear the cache. You also need to clear stored data for your original site by clearly it on (for Chrome) <chrome://settings/siteData?search=cookies> .

How can I obtain a report of pages that have not been modified recently

Thank you


author: Bob Jubb
body: Hi there,

Following on from the above, is it possible by search by specific areas? For example we have multiple departments that author documents, like 'Computing Services Admin'. We need to pull out all documents created under this that have not been modified for 18 months or longer.

Is it also possible to bulk archive documents?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

User registration issues
Asked by sophia_macrae_tod:

One of our users is experiencing problems trying to sign up through the registration link. I have deleted them as a user, then re-added them and sent a fresh registration invitation link and even after asking them to delete all cookies, when they clicked on the link, the same error message appeared.

Please can anyone advise what the issue might be? Thanks!

Saving of inline comments for some users not possible!
Asked by Perry:

Hello,

we currently have Confluence Version 7.4.4 installed. A User reported problems while using the inline comment functionality, whilst the others don't.

Trying to add an inline comment on strings only containing "name" fails with the following message:
> Ihr Inline-Kommentar kann nicht hinzugef?gt werden. Eventuell enth?lt der markierte Abschnitt ein Makro oder eine Benutzererw?hnung. Markieren Sie Nur-Text.

I've tried reindexing and restart like descried in the Article <https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/exception-when-creating-or-deleting-page-683181903.html> .

It didn't help.

Can you help me?

do you see any errors in the application logs when recreating this issue ?

If it's only for some users, I would think that this is an issue with browser cache or compatibility. Maybe ask them to try again with Incognito mode or with another browser ?

If it's only for some users, I would say that it's an issue client-side and not server-side.

Let me know if this helps,

I couldn't finding anything regarding the affected user in the logs.

The user already tried to replicate the scenario in all available browsers and on the browser of another PC resulting the same error.

I've found a solution to the problem.

The issue was resolved by:

2. Content Indexing \> Rebuilt

Watchers List doesn't update after removing user from Distribution List
Asked by davin:

We manage Confluence Access through Distribution Lists and when an employee moves to another team, we simply remove them from our DL to prevent them from accessing our Confluence space moving forward.

But it has recently come to our notice that they still receive email notifications for the pages they were watching previously even when they cannot access Confluence.

The obvious assumption here would be that the Watchers List should have been updated along with the DL when synced but it doesn't seem like the way its built out.

Is there a way to automatically remove users from the watchers list when they are removed from the DL itself?


Answers:
author: Kishan Sharma
body: Hi Davin,

Just wanted to understand a bit about Distribution List. Have you created a dummy user in confluence and added the Distribution List email address to its profile ? and added that dummy user as watcher to your page/space ? If that is the case, removing member from your Distribution List should work and that member should not receive any email from confluence.

Another case - You might have created a group in confluence and added that user to the group which is also added as a watcher to page/space. In this case you need to remove the user from the group.

comments: author: davin
body: Hi [@Kishan Sharma](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/554991)

We have Distribution Lists within our teams which are added as groups in Confluence.

But removing an user from that DL does not remove them from the Watchers List as apparently, the "Watchers List" is a separate entity that is managed in Confluence and not linked to the Permissions of a space. Hence we have been manually removing users who leave the team but this is almost impossible to get all the pages done.

6.x LTS version .
Asked by feng hong:

cause CVE-2021-26084 .. we want to upgrade the server version from 6.9.1 to a LTS version like 6.13.23 (LTS ?)

but i can't find any 6.13.23version in docker hub?


Answers:
author: Daniel Eads
body: Hi [@feng hong](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4122826) ,

We're checking in on the build for 6.13.23 as we do expect that to be visible for you on Docker Hub. I'll update you as soon as it's available.

In the meantime, I would suggest not waiting for that version to mitigate CVE-2021-26084. My suggestion to you would be:

1. Update now to 6.13.21 using [one of the available images on docker hub](https://hub.docker.com/r/atlassian/confluence-server/tags?page=1&ordering=last_updated&name=6.13.21) (note: this particular version is still vulnerable)
2. Mitigate the issue using the [mitigation script and instructions](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-security-advisory-2021-08-25-1077906215.html#ConfluenceSecurityAdvisory20210825-Mitigation) in the security advisory

And then once 6.13.23 is available on docker hub, upgrade to that version.

Cheers,

I'm waiting for 6.13.23 because of the CVE-2021-26084, but currently I'm using the 6.13.21-adoptopenjdk8 image, so I want to update it to the 6.13.23-adoptopenjdk8. I guess that this version is being built or something similar... I'm correct?

Thank you


author: Daniel Eads
body: Hey [@Oriol Albareda](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4543173) ! Sorry about the confusion here - starting in Confluence 6.13, AdoptOpenJDK is the default JRE. While the image noted doesn't specifically have the -adoptopenjdk8 tag, that is the JRE being used for that image.

Confluence will not start up because the build number in the home directory doesn't match db
Asked by JAMES LIN:

Hi:

We are having this error after 2nd upgrade of Confluence from 7.4.0 to 7.4.11:  

Confluence will not start up because the build number in the home directory \[8401\] doesn't match the build number in the database \[8402\].

After 1st upgrade attempt I thought I encountered error and I upgraded Confluence again with original confluence_data folder

After 2nd upgrade I could make Confluence run but it gave me above error message. I don't have backup of confluence_data. It remains the original one.

How can I fix this build number problem? Fixing bulid number in confluence_data\\confluence.cfg.xml doesn't help though.

Vertical Allign in Table on Cloud Version Confluence

Currently there's no such function available in cloud editor.

Open a page in edit mode
Asked by Nigel Brown:

Is there a way I can open a link straight in edit mode? As tasks progress I edit the action item to confirm where it's at, and being able to click on the link highlight and it taking me straight to the action item is great, but then I have to go into edit mode to make those notes, and scroll back down to the item to edit it, so it would be great if there was a way to open it directly in edit mode at that spot, is it possible?

Thanks

Answers:

body: Hi [@Nigel Brown](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4531201) You can of course open a confluence page directly in edit mode. You just right click on edit button of the page you want to edit? "Copy Link Address" and bookmark that URL or create link of it on another page. Next time you just need to open the bookmark or the link you created and it will open the page directly in edit mode.

You won't be able to jump to specific section of the page but yes you can achieve the edit mode like this.

Hope this helps.

author: Alexis Robert

I don't think this is possible as it's an automatic feature from the "Task Report" macro. Usually people will stay in "Read" mode, and just tick the task box when it's completed.

You could also add notes with the [inline comments](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/comment-on-pages-and-blog-posts/) : this way you don't have to switch to edit mode.

Let me know if this helps,
