Can I stash specific uncommitted files or is it a all or nothing deal
Asked by Greg Davis:

I have a lot of files that I have worked on. Is it possible to stash just specific uncommitted files or is it all or nothing? What would be the best way to only commit certain files and leave the others? Would that be just to stage the specific files and commit them?

I am using Windows 10 and version 3.4.7.

Thanks.

body: Hi [@Greg Davis](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4735303),

Welcome to Atlassian Community!

[Git stash](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-stash) is an all or nothing command, so you cannot stash just a subset. Git commit allows you to select the files you want to commit, you just have to use [git add](https://git-scm.com/docs/git-add) to specify the files that you want to commit.

comments: author: Greg Davis
body: Thanks [@Mikael Sandberg](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/853579) Thanks for the reply. The reason I ask is that I have 12 files but I only want to commit and push two of them.

How do I do the git add in Sourcetree?


author: Greg Davis
body: Can I stash the unstaged files and not affect the staged files?


author: Mikael Sandberg
body: In Sourcetree you have the option to stage specific files, and when you commit it will only include your staged files. This is the equivalent to using git add from the command line. Have a look at [Create a file, add it locally, and push it to Bitbucket](https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/copy-your-repository-and-add-files/) for a simplified example.


author: Greg Davis
body: Then when I commit the staged files, I can then stash the unstaged files?


author: Greg Davis
body: So when I commit the two files, I would push them?


author: Mikael Sandberg
body: If you want your commit to be available on the remote repository, then yes, you need to push it. There should be a checkbox that allow you to push automatically when you make your commit.

Rendering of context menu
Asked by ChuckieAJ:

Here is an example:

I am running the latest version of SourceTree on Windows 11 in Dark Mode.

comments: author: Mirek
body: Can't view this issue (and vote) but this was a good way to move forward since seems like a bug.


author: Mirek
body: Seems that this is a Windows popup, correct? Did you had this problem before? (in older version of SourceTree). Is there a chance to check if this is working fine on same version of SourceTree but different OS? (e.g. Windows 10?)

comments: author: ChuckieAJ
body: I don't have a PC with Window 10. Sorry. And can't comment on earlier versions of SourceTree.

It is a popup context menu.


author: Mirek
body: OK, I was just trying to identify is this a problem in SourceTree or Windows.. If changing the OS or version of SourceTree is not an option maybe you can try to change a theme in Windows 11 to something else and see how it looks then?


author: ChuckieAJ
body: I can definitely tell you that this is a SourceTree popup menu. Later today I will. try running SourceTree with it's light mode. I am confident that this is a SourceTree dark mode issue where the colour properties are not correct.

I will update you.


author: ChuckieAJ
body: I confirm that when I set the SourceTree Theme to Light that the popup menu renders OK. This issue is only when I set the SourceTree theme to Dark.
Wondering if a person can subscribe to any and all questions in the Questions app.
Asked by Colin Roeke:

I see in the Questions app settings\> manage subscriptions, one can subscribe to selected tags and spaces but would be good to be able to subscribe to all questions and not have to select all tags. Sometimes people want to be exposed to all questions. Thanks

Is there a way to embed only part of an external webpage in Confluence?
Asked by Amy Barnett:

Hi there,

We've embedded an external webpage on our Confluence site using an html macro (with iFrame code). But, we want to be able to cut off the top navigation menu of the external site. Is there a way to do this?


Answers:
author: Kristian Klima
body: Hi [@Amy Barnett](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5549499) and welcome to the community.

As [@Yousuf Raza](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5538930) writes, you can restrict that on Confluence.

What you CAN do is to create a version of the website without the stuff you don't want to display. For example, mobile site versions tend to be stripped down and it should not be that difficult to recompile the site.


author: Yousuf Raza
body: Hi Amy,

When embedding an external webpage in Confluence, the entire page, including its navigation and footer, will be displayed. Unfortunately, Confluence does not offer options to control or trim specific parts of the embedded webpage.

If you have administrative access to the external webpage, a viable solution would be to create a duplicate of the page with the header navigation and footer removed. You can then use this modified page to generate a new iFrame code and embed it into Confluence.

Best regards,  
Yousuf

Cant Find Users in Internal Users
Asked by Jordan Isemeyer:

I have a few co-workers that aren't populating in the Internal Users section of our workspace. They've worked on Jira for a few months and are able to sign in no problem into Atlassian. But they arent showing up thus I cant add them to our workspace.


Answers:
author: Hans Polder
body: [@Jordan Isemeyer](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5549447) ,

It sounds like those co-workers don't have access to Confluence and need to request that before you being able to see them and select them.

If you are an organization admin, you can check the configuration of 'user access settings' in admin.atlassian.com (tab 'Products'). If you aren't an admin, please consult with your Jira/Confluence admins to understand how product access is arranged.

Chat not making a notification or sound
Asked by Stephen Saunders:

My company uses the chat system available in Confluence to provide support services to our company's sales agents. The problem I'm facing is that the chat does not make any sounds on the sales agent's side when they get a message. I've tested this myself (see images). Our chat system is integrated with ZenDesk, which is where the chat agents manage the chat tickets.

Is there a setting I'm missing? Where would I look to change it? Or maybe is there an issue with the integration

![enable sound instructions.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/337056i0C1547C2F53528E9/image-dimensions/206x322?v=v2 "enable sound instructions.PNG")![sound settings.PNG](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/337057iD343121CB64109AF/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "sound settings.PNG")

author: Valerie Knapp
body: Hi [@Stephen Saunders](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5547300) , welcome to the Atlassian Community and thanks for your question.

This sounds like a configuration on the Zendesk side. Have you found any other articles like this one - <https://support.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/4408821476378-Changing-your-chat-sounds-and-notification-settings> ? This has a section on the sounds and how to enable or customize them.

I hope this helps but please share your feedback if it doesn't.

Cheers

comments: author: Stephen Saunders
body: It's unlikely to be a ZD problem, as ZD wouldn't be the one making the sound. The sound source is on the Confluence page.

But I did check the article out, though, b/c I'm really wanting this fixed. The settings I have are set to notify me w/sound, etc, like the article says.

REmove restrictions on page where i am not the owner

Answers:
author: Barbara Szczesniak
body: [@corinne goodman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5344658) As the Sace Admin, you can also transfer ownership of the page from the person who left the company to yourself or another user, as described in <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/New-Assign-and-transfer-page-ownership/ba-p/2396313>.

Once you do that, you should be able to change the page restrictions.

comments: author: Kristian Klima

I think it's not exclusive to Premium, rather it's an Org Admin privilege.

(I'm on Standard and log in as another user...)

Org Admins (maybe even site admins) can do that from the User management section. Select the user and you'll see the option.

Exporting a page to PDF when the 'Include page' macro is used
Asked by Kim Walton:

We are trying to figure out a way to export a page to PDF as we see it rendered on the screen. A good majority of the page was created using the Include Page macro so none of that content is making it to the exported PDF when done using the native export feature.

We have already purchased several marketplace apps that we weren't planning on, so I don't think I'd get approval to purchase another if that is the only way to do it.


Answers:
author: Brant Schroeder
body: [@Kim Walton](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/774284) The include page macro should show up in an standard export. Do any of the pages in the include have other macros and if yes what are they?

Mentions in Pages in Confluence
Asked by Maria Sch?ller:

We are using mentions to add names in documents if people have certain responsibilities regarding that page. If someone leaves the company, will their names still be visible in the page? As per my understanding, mentions disappear when the account is deleted. Is this also the case for an account being deactivated. And why would you ever delete an account if it can be deactivated?


Answers:
author: Shawn Doyle - ReleaseTEAM
body: Depending on how the account is added, you may be unable to delete it, just deactivate it.

If they are deactivated it is shown as Username (Deactivated)

comments: author: Maria Sch?ller
body: I would preferable have them not disappear to maintain traceability of people who have had responsibilities regarding documents.

Is there any possibilities of migrating Miro projects to Whiteboard docs?

As Shawn mentioned, we currently don't have any native tools to [migrate Miro boards to Confluence Whiteboards](https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/import-miro-boards-in-confluence-whiteboards/) in other ways.

We're indeed working on migration tools and this is on our roadmap, but we still don't have an ETA.

We also have these feature requests asking for other ways to import Miro into Whiteboards:

* [Import external Whiteboard via JSON/CSV](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-78222)
* [Import boards from other whiteboarding tools](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-77657)

Why am I getting so many warnings about 'product created outside <mydomain>'?
Asked by dave_drexler:

I'm the admin for Jira and Confluence in my company. In the past few months, I've gotten at least a dozen email warnings that someone has created a new instance of Confluence 'outside of our domain.'

In 20 years of dealing with Atlassian products, this has never happened before. Did something change, making it much easier for inexperienced users to inadvertently set up a new instance? Every time this happens I have to contact the user and cancel the subscription - it's a PITA.


Answers:
author: Jeroen Poismans
body: Hi Dave,

I found an community post about this exact issue. [@Nic Brough -Adaptavist-](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/781454) gives a very clear explanation as to the "why and how":

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Atlassian-Account-questions/How-to-Prevent-Atlassian-Products-being-added-by-users-w-company/qaq-p/2401874>

Basically there is nothing you can do about it, but:
> ...  
> if someone uses a company email-based atlassian account, this does not automatically add the system to your corporate account - that has to be done by one of your admins.  
> ...

Further in the article there is a reaction from Atlassian Team, there is a suggestion open:

<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ID-7697>

Atlassian - if you're listening - this is an awful way to treat customers. I can't imagine that the harm to customer relations is worth the tiny amount of added motivation to move to an Enterprise license.

Error loading the extension!
Asked by Chris Danks:

Hello,

We're getting error "Error loading the extension!" on our pages that use the show child pages extension.

author: Aron Gombas _Midori_
body: What is the name of the macro you are seeing when editing the page?

I reckon it isn't a built-in macro!

It is very likely a macro provided by the third party app, and the app was uninstalled in the meanwhile. If you can identify the macro, you can search the web which app provides this, then reinstall the app.

"User Mentioned" trigger in confluence automation
Asked by William Glover _admin_:

Dear community,

I am attempting to set up a confluence automation using the "When a user is mentioned" trigger:

Unfortunately, it seems that the trigger is never actually triggered by a comment or a mention in the page body. Am I misunderstanding something here, or is the trigger just not working correctly at the moment?

Kind regards

William


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

If you are testing it by tagging yourself that might be the problem. Either have someone tag you or you tag someone else to try it out.


author: Tessa Tuteleers
body: Hi [@William Glover _admin_](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/5549030) ,

Welcome to the community!

<br />

The trigger does work, however, it only works for other users. (If you mention yourself, the trigger doesn't seem to go off).  
Can you confirm the same findings?

I could not immediately find an open bug or feature request for the behavior.   
You can create an Atlassian support request to ask and investigate the behaviour, as this does not seem intended.

Some of the old attachments are broken
Asked by Mohammad RahmaniNasab:

Hey there,

Do you have any idea why some of the old attachments are broken? like the picture below:

![attch broken jira.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/336942iE7D69C6FCFA2E2D1/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "attch broken jira.png")

any comment could be useful.


Answers:
author: Ravina
body: Hi [@Mohammad RahmaniNasab](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4895119) Does the attachment preview is not working or whole attachment is broken and not showing the expected results?

Also, is there is any recent migration happen for the attachment directory on the Confluence shared home?

comments: author: Mohammad RahmaniNasab
body: It doesn't exist even on the server folder. and this server has no linked confluence shared

I should mention it's kinda old, attached about 2 years ago


author: Zuri Suwru
body: Hey there Mohammad,

The first question that comes to my mind is whether or not a major Jira upgrade took place recently on your instance. If yes, it might be good idea to take a look at the relevant migration guides as they will inform you on naming-scheme / structural changes that must be catered to in order to have your data behave "normally".

That aside, the most common reason for broken attachments is usually the fact that they no longer exist. Ensure that the files you are looking for are present in the server's corresponding [home directory](https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/jira-application-home-directory-938847746.html). If not, with luck, some of your backups may still have the files in question available.

Best regards,  
Zuri S.

comments: author: Mohammad RahmaniNasab
body: unfortunately the corresponding directory doesn't have missed files, although other files of this issue are present and have no problem opening them.
