Means to dynamically "parametrize" pages?
Asked by Henning M?ller:

I've got a generic confluence page, e.g. an invitation to work on a Jira issue. The text is kind of a template, but it should be "personalized" by a specific Jira issue, e.g. by adding the Jira macro with a link to this specific issue or by using a specific field value of the Jira issue inside the invitation.

I'm looking for a way to do this by just adding the Jira issue id as a parameter to the link to the confluence page, but without having to create a specific instance of the page for each Jira issue and to change the parameters of the macros inside that page.

Is this possible with on-board tools? Are there addons around which might allow this?

Actually, I could even fetch the Jira issue id from the referrer to the template page, if there is a means to dynamically use the referrer content, maybe by some sort of script?


Answers:
author: Davin Studer
body: You could create a user macro that wraps the built-in Jira macro and dynamically edits the JQL for the Jira macro based on the URL query string. Something like this would work. You would need to find out a couple things about your system before creating the user macro. You can do that by putting a Jira macro on your page. with a JQL query like this. Put in a real issue key.

```
key="{Some Issue Key}"
```

Once you've saved the page look at the storage format that was created. You can get to that through the Page Menu -\>"View Storage Format". Get the server and serverId parameters that were created for the Jira macro. You'll need to put those into the user macro code below. You can create user macros in Confluence Administration -\> User Macros. Once you create the user macro you can then put it on a page and access the page like this. The jira macro will change to reflect the query string parameter.

```
http(s)://{your server}/display/{spacekey}{page name}?issuekey={your issue key}
```

Macro Name:  
dynamic_jira

Macro Title:  
Dynamic Jira

Cannot adjust filter results in Macro on Confluence page
Asked by Roy Hofmann:

In a Confluence page I can add the macro "Filter Results". When I try to adjust the filter, I can't do that well. I can no longer delete added fields. I can no longer delete existing fields. Fields cannot be moved.

Welcome to the community. Can you share a screenshot of your issue as I am not sure what filter you are using. I do not have a filter results macro, I do have several macros that allow you to filter results.

Create new space?
Asked by Mark Zenner:

Not sure i'm in the right place, but we've got a main "Space" set up for our organization with multiple pages and documents. We want to create a new "Space" and restrict this to one single user and upload documents to it. We dont want this user to be able to see anything else in our space, just this one singe space. Is this possible? How do I create a new space myself?


Answers:
author: Thomas Deiler
body: Dear [@Mark Zenner](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4198387) ,

first, yes you can!

* As an Administrator you can create as many spaces as you want.
* You can grant access to users for SPACE1 that cannot work in SPACE2

Have a look at : <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/space-permissions-overview-139521.html>

So long

How to bring in Salesforce dashboards
Asked by Lim Vo:

Hi,

I would like to be able to have Salesforce dashboards presented within our confluence page.

I was told I could use iFrame Macro, however, I am not able to get it to work.

If this is supported and can provide instructions to get this to work would be great.

If that's the case we don't have native support to embed into Confluence pages Salesforce Dashboard, the closest we support at the moment is to bring into Confluence pages SOQL results in table format as explained in this link from our documentation:

body: I don't have a Cloud instance on my hands to confirm, but on a Server I'd do it in the following way:

- add a 'html' macro anywhere on the page

- insert the following to it

```
<style type="text/css">
div.refresh-issues-bottom {
  display: none;
}
</style>
```

You might need to add !important to it and the element class could be different on cloud. Maybe somebody can provide more accurate steps, this is just my train of thought how you *might* be able to do it.

How can I change the information that is contained in my Confluence Dashboard?
Asked by kateryna.bodnarchuk:

Currently, I have some info with the links in my dashboard. How can I change it?

Answers:
author: Mykenna Cepek
body: I've realized that your original post includes three documentation links for Confluence Server. Can you confirm if you're using the Server or Cloud version of Confluence?  

You had tagged your question with the "Cloud" deployment type for Confluence, when I suspect you meant "Server". The community will be able to help you better with correct tags on your questions.  

I don't currently have access to a Server version of Confluence, so I don't think I can help much here. But I will make two observations:

* Your screenshot appears to show links to Atlassian documentation. I'm not sure where those two DIV/UL areas, but they might be standard and "official Atlassian" at the bottom of the dashboard - and not modifiable. That's a guess.
* The first link in your original post includes a section call "Advanced Customization", with additional links that suggest that getting deep into SiteMesh and Velocity code can allow you to do some serious customization. I also saw this notice: "While we don't recommend you do this unless you know exactly what you're doing, it does give you complete control over the look of every aspect of Confluence."

If you figure it out, let us know here. Maybe someone else will chime in?

Best wishes.

Do you have "Confluence admin" privileges in your Confluence instance?

If you have those permissions, then what happens whey you try to go to:

*YOUR-INSTANCE*.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/templates2/listglobaltemplates.action

Any help would be great, thanks!


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: If you are in the context of a page when you hit "create", Confluence assumes the new page should be a child of the current one. If you do it when there is no page context, it has to assume something, and that is the "home" page for the space.

You'll need to create the page and then move it up a level in the tree, so it lives alongside the home page as another root for the space.

Confluence doc using draw.io
Asked by francesco:

I had a previous issue where I was posting several images into draw.io which resulted in a very large file that was causing saving and publishing issues.

I was told to insert a link of the image instead of the actual image. I tested this with a simple image from the internet and it work fine.

However, my images are located on a SharePoint site. We used a link that is available to anyone. To validate this, I copied the link and posted in a private browser and was able to see the image.

However, when I try to use this SharePoint link in draw.io it says 'File not found'.

Can anyone shed some light on this?


Answers:
author: francesco
body: Realized I was using a link in SharePoint that was a viewer showing images that I could scroll through. So it was not the original image link in SharePoint. All is well now.

Get URL from page with special chars in page-title within a user macro
Asked by Michael Rosenberger:

Hi,

we use the following code to get the url auf a page an create a link to it:

```
## @param Page:title=Page Name|type=confluence-content|required=true|desc=Select a target page


#set ($page = $pageManager.getPage($spaceKey, $paramPage))
#set ($pageUrl = $req.contextPath + "/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=" + $page.id)
```

This works as expected in most cases. But if the title of the page contains any special character (\&,+, ...) no page is found and no pageId gets returned.

I have found an issue, that can be related:  
<https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-11285>

Is there a way to get the url of a page with special-chars in title?

I want to leave a board, but I created it. Can I transfer ownership of the board to another person?
Asked by Elise Kik:

Hi!

I created several boards that I now no longer want to be a member of, I tried to leave these boards but because I set them up I can only close the board.

Is there a way to transfer ownership of the board to another person? E.g. similar how you can transfer ownership of events on google calendar.

Thanks so much!


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hey Elise

If you're no longer needing the board, you can close it, or close/delete it. If you want the board to still exist, you need to have a member added as an admin. Once there's another admin, you'll be able to leave the board. Trello requires an admin of a board, which is why you're not able to leave it without another admin.

Adding another admin of the board will basically transfer the ownership of that board.

Hope that helps!

comments: author: Elise Kik
body: Hi Matthew,

Amazing - thanks for the swift response. That has worked indeed!

Many thanks!
How does business class work when non business class users are invited to a board?
Asked by christianmagill:

Are there limitations when you invite non-business class users to join a board which you have integrated power ups on?

Does this limit the content they see?

When I work with contractors and clients I'd like to invite them to my boards, but don't want the requirement that they purchase an account for the engagement.

Thanks,


Answers:
author: Matthew N
body: Hi Christian

When you have a team, and everyone is on that team, you get a lot of benefits in regards to board creation. I can make a new "Support: whatever" board for any new thing I want, and don't have to add 6 email addresses as outsiders just to save some money. I can add the whole team in a matter of seconds. Team members get automatic visibility to all team boards, not only the ones they're invited to. Also, for Business Class, it's to companies' best interest to use a team, for better admin control, like the ability to deactivate members when they leave the company, things like that.

That being said, a non team member will show on the board as such, but they will still have the same capabilites as a team member. So if you're okay with the manual work of inviting those individual non team members, and removing them manually when the time comes, then it's a fine workaround than having to add them to your team at a cost. Their content will not be limited, and they will be able to work as normal.

If you're wanting them to just be able to view the board, you can add them as an observer and they won't have any edit capabilities except commenting and voting (if you turn those on).

Hope that helps!
Trello Chrome extension no longer attaches link to URL?
