How can i add the page name to the title page?
Asked by Michael Forisch:

I created a title page for PDF exports and added some Text, logos etc.

However i didnt manage to export the name of the page that i am currently exporting.

I have the need to add a title page to specific PDF export with content that i dont need in confluence itself, hence why i cant use the export/print to pdf option. I am therefor using the space tool for exporting spaces to PDF and limit the export to one page at a time.

In the CSS/HTML, i added company logo, address and a signature box. Above the signature box, i need the page name of the space sub site that i am currently exporting. Copy pasting is not an option, because i will reuse this title page for about 50 pages that i export, so i need a variable that i can access in the CSS/HTML. How i do that?


Answers:
author: Milo Test
body: I think you refer to the title with:

```
.pagetitle h1 {              display:[inline|block|none];}
```

(Choose one of the three methods to display it.)

I haven't tried it, so don't flame me. 8-)

Confluence PDF exporter freezes
Asked by Tommy Wood:

Hey guys,

I'm trying to export a space to PDF, but every time I try it freezes at exactly 52% complete, while it says it's converting the first page. I've tried disabling my layout and stylesheet, but that didn't help. The HTML and XML exporters work perfectly, so I think the problem is with the PDF funtionality specifically.

Does anyone have an idea of what's wrong, or what might be done about it?

Thanks!

How to insert the confluence pages into the jira ticket
Asked by Sajjad Sarwar:

Hi,

I am able to mention the tickets and can insert the tickets into the confluence, However i wants to insert the confluence requirements directly into the ticket but don't want to write those requirements in the ticket again.

How to create 'related articles' from a custom template?
Asked by Nick Ng:

I created a custom template but i couldn't find a macro that would show 'Related articles' (similar to what's done in the Troubleshooting template).


Answers:
author: Luiz Maia
body: Hi Nick,

The Related Articles is actually not a macro, but is consists on two macros that will perform searches based on labels. These macros are the "Content by Label" and the "Page Properties". You should insert these two macros into your new template and insert the related labels you want to search for.

Thanks!

Change the css style of a word every time it occurs
Asked by AlexandreA:

Guys,

I have a Confluence page and I would like to change the css style of a word every time it occurs, e.g. every time that "status:error" occurs, I wanna change it to just "Error" and make it red color. Is that possible?

Cheers


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: No. HTML/css doesn't do that, let alone Confluence. If you want to highlight a particular chunk of text, you need to tell the browser that you want to do that every time, which means you have to tag it somehow. Try the "status" macro in Confluence, that's the closest you're going to get.

Change default padding on snapshot image effect
Asked by Helen Gosper:

Is there a simple way to alter the default padding that is applied when you apply the 'snapshot' effect to an image? I want to use the snapshot effect but I would like to remove, or significantly reduce, the default padding that it adds around an image (not sure how many pixel it is - at a guess, probably around 10px?)

To illustrate, image A below is the image with no effects. Image B has the 'snapshot' effect applied.

Image A

image2015-8-18 11:2:35.png

Image B

image2015-8-18 11:3:11.png

I am pretty much a WYSIWZG user, but can probably borrow someone who can apply styling if that is the solution.

many thanks, Helen

Answers:
author: Steffen Heller
body: When you apply the snapshot effect it adds some parameters to different parts of the image tag (effects=border-simple,blur-border). No idea what that does, where and how!

I doubt you can easily change the padding without digging deeper.
I want to produce a register in Confluence where the pages that are entered appear on the register.
Asked by Debbie Zer:

Hi can you direct me to a tutorial so I can document the step by step process


Answers:
author: Debbie Zer
body: Thanks Milo I will give it a go.


author: Milo Test
body: Not sure if this is what you're after, but you could put the Pagetree macro on the parent page, followed by the Create Page Macro set to create pages under that parent.  
Then when a user clicks that link to create a page, a link to the new page will get automatically listed on the parent.

You could also use the List by Label macro and set the Create Page Macro to create the new page wherever, and apply a label that the List by Label macro is set to list.


author: Debbie Zer
body: Hi, I want to produce a page that acts as a register, and on that page I want to put a button for them to create the info and this will then populate the register. Hope that is a little clearer.

Can you search an embedded word document?
Asked by Juliette Smith:

I embedded a word document and then tried to search for a few phrases from that document, but nothing came back from my search. Are you not able to search within an embedded document? This seems strange to me since you can search within attached PDFs.


Answers:
author: Thiago Zandona
body: Hi Juliette,

Yes, you should be able to find the phrases if you attached the document. Confluence will index and search the full-content of following type of attachments:

* Word (.doc)
* Text
* Powerpoint (.ppt)
* Excel (.xls)
* PDF
* HTML

You can confirm this also at this page:

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Search>

If you are having issues please open a case at [support.atlassian.com](http://support.atlassian.com) and we can analyse it further.

Cheers

comments: author: Juliette Smith
body: Thank you for your quick reply. Yes, I see that you can search within attached documents, but my question is if you can search an embedded document. I imported a Word Doc and then used the Office Word macro to embedded the document. Since it is embedded, it is not just an attachment that has to be opened. Instead, it almost like an image of the document. It seems as if I cannot search the embedded document.


author: Davin Studer
body: If you are using the Word macro then you are displaying an attached word file. That is what the word macro does. Importing is actually a different process that created a native wiki page from a Word document. In either case you should be able to search for the data. One thing to note is if you attach a document to a page depending upon your system it could take a little while for it to show up in search results as the document must be indexed first.

Can we setup confluence as our help system (documentation and how-tos) for our software without requiring users to login?
Asked by owen c:

Currently we are directing users to a linked PDF within our software for those who require further help in navigating our system. We would like to move towards a more robust system that allows users to search for topics by keyword, phrases etc and read documentation via a wiki like environment.

Is it possible to use confluence to fill this need? Can we disable the need to log-in?

We are currently utilizing the entire Atlassian suite of software - Jira, Confluence and Stash for our dev environment. Would it require any additional purchases?

Customize email notifications
Asked by Nicolas Chenevert:

I'm working on two spaces in Confluence:

1. In the first one I get email notifications that only show the updated sections (very useful)
2. In the second one I get an email with the full page (very long to parse)

So it seems possible to have only the updated sections, how is this configurable?

thank for the help!


Answers:
author: Nicolas Chenevert
body: thank @Luiz Maia \[Atlassian\] for your answer, I already have that option enable but still have different behaviour depending on the space I'm getting notifications from. So I guess it's a space specific setting rather than a general user setting. Any other ideas where I can configure this? I'm running Confluence V 5.7.1


author: Luiz Maia
body: Hi Nicolas,

This can be configured on your user profile.

1. Choose**your **profile picture**** at top right of the screen, then choose **Settings**

2. Click **Email** in the left-hand panel
3. Click **Edit**
4. Make sure you enable the**Show Changed Content**option

This should send you e-mail notifications with changed content only.

Let us know should you have any questions. Thanks.

Default parent for SubSpaces
Asked by Areg Vrtanesyan _Work_:

Hi

I would like to check if there is a possibility to set up a Default Parent SubSpace so if someone is creating new space it will not end up in SubSpace top menu list.

Regards,

Areg


Answers:
author: Almuth Boehme [Communardo]
body: Hello Areg,

The "createspace-start.action" Method is Confluence standard and that's why it is not in the scope of the Subspace plugin. The only way to avoid the creation of spaces from the Dashboard is to hide the creation link with the follwing CSS definition via: "Administration" -\> "Look and Feel" -\> "Stylesheet":

#dashboard-get-started .create-space {

display: none;

}

<br />

Hint: The "createspace-start.action" Method is still available via URL and this CSS will probably only work in Confluence 5.5, thus it may have to be adapted to your Confluence version.

Please talk to your users and advice them to create the spaces only in the corresponding parent spaces. Unfortunately, that is the only possibility that we have.

I have also raised an improvement request on your behalf. You can find it here: <https://jira.communardo.de/browse/CSSP-223>

I have voted for the request on your behalf. Please feel free to comment on it to increase its popularity and add yourself as a watcher in order to receive all the latest updates from the developer and feedback from other users that are facing the same issue.

Printing Team Calendars via Browser
Asked by Paula Quint:

Hi TEam,

In our company it is very common to print the schedules made in Team Calendars. Because there is no direct way to do this we use the print option in the browser (Mozilla Firefox). The idea is to print a complete month, but this seems not possible. In the example (screenshots below) you see the month september as a screenshot in Confluence. As you can see the month is completely filled with all kinds of events. But when we try to print the month only the first 2 weeks are filled and the second half is shown but empty. ![sad](/html/@C495B4504065515364EB1894F812B34C/images/emoticons/sad.png "sad")  
How can I make it possible to print the complete month? We use Confluence 5.6.6 and Team Calendars 5.1.21.  
Hope to hear from you!  
Best regards,  
Paula Quint
