Universal Wiki Converter
Asked by Carl Nagin:

In the Universal Wiki Converter FAQ it states it writes your files out to uwc\\output\\output. However I notice in the log it states the write to disk option is turned off. There is no documentation detailing the setting to turn it on or off. How do you get the program to write the files out to disk after conversion?

How to make Confluence public by editing database?
Asked by Ali:

Hello,

How can I make confluence public (in other words, allow anonymous access to all pages) **by editing database?**

I haven't been able to find related tables and I am not that good with postgres. I can't use administrator panel because authentication messed up.

This is an urget issue for us so, any help would be useful.

Thank you.


Answers:
author: Nick Muldoon
body: Hi @Ali,

We had a similar need - we wanted to use Confluence for collaborating on content yet point customers to a publicly accessible and branded website for documentation.

Last week we released [Instant Websites for Confluence](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/instant-websites) to improve the experience when our customers browse product documentation. Traditionally, customers would browse our documentation direct on Confluence ([arijea.atlassian.net](http://arijea.atlassian.net/)). We found the page load time problematic and the mobile style less than ideal.

With Instant Websites [our documentation](http://docs.arijea.com/documentation/redaction/redaction-for-confluence-user-guide/) is automatically converted from a Confluence space to a static, mobile responsive website. That is then deployed to Amazon Web Services.

In short, with Instant Websites for Confluence Cloud every time a customer wants to read the documentation they get it immediately, regardless of the device they are on.

I thought it may be of use. If so, I would love any and all feedback on how we can improve the product.

Thanks Ali, have a great day,  
Nick


author: Alejandro Conde Carrillo
body: Even if it is possible, I do not recommend you to do it that way. If you have problems with authentication you can try [Restoring Passwords To Recover Admin User Rights](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Restoring+Passwords+To+Recover+Admin+User+Rights) and enable anonymous access from the admin console afterwards.

localized themes & global settings
Asked by Jackson Sweet:

can a theme be changed for a localized set of pages or do global settings HAVE to be modified to alter themes?


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: It depends on the Theme. You can choose different themes for different spaces (e.g. space1 has default and space2 has documentation). But Themes have global settings that affect all spaces using that Theme, and some of them have local settings that you can amend in space admin.

How to use the table Enhancer
Asked by prajakta kulkarni:

1. I am trying to insert the Table Enhancer, but I get the following error

com.tngtech.confluence.plugins.tableenhancer.warning.noTableFound

2. Basically I want to add the Table enhancer to have auto numbering for my requirements.


Answers:
author: Jean Nugent
body: I ran into the same thing, Dorothee. What I did that worked:

\* create a small table in my page using the table tool

\* select that table and then add the table enhancer macro (ignore the error)

\* replace the table inside the macro area with my desired table

Hope this helps.


author: Steven F Behnke
body: Hello Praj,

You must place a Confluence table inside the Table Enhancer macro, like so:

author: Evgeny Victorov

1. Select an existing table (yes, you need to creta one first).
2. Add a macro via the toolset panel (above the content editing window, located to the right).

Asked by Monica:


Answers:

body: Hi Monica,

This is a place for questions about the Atlassian toolstack, prestashop is not part of that stack so you should probably ask that question somewhere else.

The license could not be verified: This license supports 500 users but the Atlassian license allows 10000
Asked by Dan Hellings:

Our users cannot view any data within the Scaffolding macros as an error is displayed. The error advises "The license could not be verified: This license supports 500 users but the Atlassian license allows 10000".

I have checked the Scaffolding settings but in the license screen it advises "The following error(s) occurred: This license supports 500 users but the Atlassian license allows 10000.".

Other plugins are fine, it just seems the scaffolding macro is affected.

We have Confluence Server (500 users). We have the scaffolding plugin (500 users). We have recently installed JIRA which currently has an evaluation license (up to 10,000). However i dont believe this should have an impact on Confluence Plugins.

This issue means our users are unable to see key confluence data.

Please could someone help as this is causing us a huge amount of issues.


Answers:
author: Dan Hellings
body: This issue was caused by an incorrect license file being provided by ServiceRocket.

comments: author: Emmanuel Bar
body: Hi there,

I meet the same issue when working with scaffolding and reporting plugins. I was migrating an instance from one server to another, and since then, the licence message came to me on the new server though it worked fine on the old one.

I tried to uninstall/reinstall, import backup file. But unsuccessfull.

Did you get any answer from Atlassian ? can you send me the issue link you raised ?

Thanks

Regards,

Manu


author: Steve Gerstner [bridgingIT]
body: Hi Dan,

you can test it, by disabling this plugin, or go to plugin save mode and only enable scaffolding. If it's working with only scaffolding enabled, it's a plugin. Than you can enable your plugins one by one and after each plugin do a check if everything works.

Regards

Steve

comments: author: Dan Hellings
body: Thanks Steve.The plugin in question works as expected, it seems that it's only had a knock on affect to the Scaffolding plugin.There is Atlassian Page detailing this issue and a fix and temporary workaround.I will generate an evaluation license for this other plugin and see if this then resolves the Scaffolding display issue.I will let you know how i get on.Thanks again


author: Davin Studer
body: You have a license mismatch. All you plugins need to have the same licensing as you base Confluence install.

comments: author: Dan Hellings
body: I have looked around and it might be due to another plugin. Although we have purchased the correct license for each plugin, when we view one of them in the Manage Add Ons section of Confluence the license details show up differently. I have contacted Atlassian to see if the license key they provided was incorrect. I am waiting on a response

how to access the cloud app outside the server
Asked by Rinku Saha:

Hi,  
We are on evaluation process for confluence Cloud app. We install the app on server and it is working fine in server ( using base URL), but outside the Server I am not able to access the App.   
Can you please help this, by providing any suggestion how to access the app outside from server.

Thanks'  
Rinku


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: This is usually down to networking. Your network is not allowing external access to Confluence

You need to check that the server name resolves correctly, your other machines can get to it over the network, and that if it is running a firewall, that it is configured to allow access.

It's difficult to say where the problem is without a description of the base url and the errors the client is reporting.

How do I build in some JavaScript into my Confluence page?
Asked by e:

Hello, I'd like to know if it's possible to build in a JS script into my confluence page.

I have a 'Run macro' script and it's got a field "Date", it expects a date in this format: DD/mm/YYYY

I wonder how do I embed a JS script so that I don't have to type that date. I'd like to see a small calendar and pick a date by a mouse click.

Any ideas? my_form.png

Answers:
author: Davin Studer
body: You can insert javascript on the page using the html macro.

comments: author: Davin Studer
body: By the way it is not enabled by default. You have to enable it manually.


author: Steve Gerstner [bridgingIT]
body: Hi,

you said you hava a macro, so what you need is to add a web resource to your plugin -\> <https://developer.atlassian.com/confdev/confluence-plugin-guide/confluence-plugin-module-types/web-resource-module>

There you can use the context-mechanism to load the js file dedicated to your macro.

If it's a user macro and you maintain it via the admin console (which I would not recommend), you can just add a script tag to your markup or if you need a library, try a cdn.

Search for words in a different order
Asked by Ioana Curta:

Hi,

Is there a way in which you can search for words in a different order than they are in the title of the Confluence article and get a match result?

For example, if I look for test case but the title of the Confluence article is 'case test' then it won't find me this article.

Thank you in advance!

Ioana


Answers:
author: Ioana Curta
body: Thank you so much, Stephen! This is really helpful when I try to search for Confluence's search bar. I haven't explained it fully: I have an article in which I included 100 names and a Live search option (this is the name of the key included in the article body). If I use this key, the option suggested by you doesn't work.

So is there any way i can search within an article, for the titles included in there, with that Live search key so that i can find all the articles that include some key words even if they are not in the exact order as in the actual name?

I hope this makes sense.

Thank you so much again for your help!


author: Stephen Deutsch
body: Hi Ioana,

try doing a search like "title:test AND title:case".

That should find both "test case" and "case test".

"Not an unresolved user" on confluence after migration of Space
Asked by arpit doshi:

We migrated our confluence space from one instance to other and also integrated it with CROWD. But for few users which are referenced in different pages, we are seeing an error "Broken Link - Not an unresolved User".

It may be due to Incorrect User Key but I am not sure. Please can anyone provide some expert opinion to solve this issue.

author: Peter Van de Voorde
body: Hi Arpit,

Go back to your original Confluence (before the export) and take a look at the usernames that were mentioned there. Do they exist in your CROWD directory? Are they written exactly the same? (Uppercase, Lowercase...)

Do they have the same permissions?

It might be one of those things that's causing the problem.

What is the best way to upload handwritten notes to Confluence? Are there scanners with a compatible interface?
Asked by Diane Towner:

We're looking for an easy way to take handwritten notes in meetings, etc. and be able to scan and upload them directly (easily) into JIRA/Confluence and create pages with the OCR'd information/text.


Answers:
author: Steven F Behnke
body: Confluence can import HTML files, so if you can find an OCR program that outputs Text or HTML files you should be pretty good to go.


author: Daniel Wester
body: I don't think anything like that exists out of the box. You could probably script an ocr package to scan things and then you upload it.

the better thing might be to use Gliffy to do the diagrams on a projector.

Failure to import space to Confluence Cloud
Asked by Tim Buntel:

Hi,

I exported a space from an on-prem Confluence(per <https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/Cloud/Importing+a+Confluence+Space>) . That produced a zip file.

To import it, I go to the import page and under "Import Options -\> File to import" I browse to the ZIP file and it opens the Zip file. I select exportDescriptor.properties and click "choose".

I then get the error message:

"The zip file did not contain an entry 'exportDescriptor.properties'. It did not contain any files, or was not a valid zip file."

That file is clearly in the ZIP.

Any ideas?

Thanks!


Answers:
author: chucktalk
body: Hi Tim,

Is your on-premises instance of Confluence the same version as the Confluence On-Demand instance? If not, you will need to upgrade the on-premises space to the same version in order to import the space without issues.

If you do need assistance with this, please consider raising a support ticket as described here: <https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Troubleshooting+Problems+and+Requesting+Technical+Support> and we will be glad to assist you.
