author: Andrey Khaneev _StiltSoft_
body: Hi [@Poornima Kalichamy](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3902689),

The Page Properties Report table can be oriented vertically by wrapping it with the [Table Transformer](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/How+to+use+Table+Transformer+macro) macro with the Transpose tables option set. The Table Transformer macro is a part of the [Table Filter and Charts](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) app, so if you do not find it then you need to install it into your Confluence instance.=.

Date value in Chart from Table is not showing correctly
Asked by Kelli Ogden:

When creating a simple line graph using the Chart from Table macro I cannot get the date field to display correctly on the x axis. From the research I have done it seems there is supposed to be a Date Format field in the Chart from Table edit page (under Adjustments) but there is no field in my application where I can set that.

As a result, when I enter Month Day Year (example April 16, 2020) it shows 416. Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Are Microsoft Offce 64bit-Files supported by View File Macro?
Asked by Roman Joss:

Dear community  
The View File Macro, as documented in <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/view-file-macro-170494360.html>, supports Office-Files. But what about the 64bit Office-Application?  
Are these files also supported?  

Our company is on the way to change to Microsoft Office 64bit. In some testings, the excel-files are not always diplayed in the confluence-pages. Is there an official documentation?   
I did not found anything. Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks

Here is the requirement -

Case 1: I have one confluence page for each project with description, project status, risks, dependencies, milestones, stakeholders contact etc. I have put all of the above info in a Page Properties Macro

I need to get project title, project status , risks, dependencies from each project page using Page Properties Report macro and display in consolidated page as a report to management. Ex.

author: Dominic Lagger
body: Hi [@gk_b](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2089663)

As you already said correctly, you need the [page properties macro.](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/page-properties-macro-184550024.html)

All your informations should be in a table in "**PAGE A**". And this page needs a label.

![image.png](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/93340iDFCF819BBA3A868F/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "image.png")

On the overview page, you need to use the [page properties report macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/page-properties-report-macro-186089616.html)

And you have to specify the label from "**PAGE A**":

* [Page Properties Report Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/page-properties-report-macro-186089616.html)

Can I share a Confluence Space with an external organization that is not an Atlassian customer?
Asked by Landon Funsten:

Hello everyone! I run the Partnerships team for a SaaS company and was hoping to use Confluence to collaborate with an external organization. That company is not an Atlassian customer. Is it possible for them to view and/or edit an individual Confluence Space? In doing so, I also want to make sure we are not giving them access to the rest of our Confluence database. Thanks for your help!


Answers:
author: Anshuman Dash _K15t_
body: Hey there,

Yes, you can collaborate with an external organization by enabling public access in Confluence-

<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/set-up-public-access/>

Once enabled, you can expose specific spaces to External users. The actions that can be performed by said external users can then be controlled using Space permissions.

I hope that helps!  

Cheers!  
Dash.

comments: author: Landon Funsten
body: Thanks for helping out here Dash!

Should I still be concerned that the space might be accessible to anyone who can find it? The information shared on the Space would need to remain confidential to the two organizations. Is there a way to limit "anonymous access" only to specific email addresses, for example?


author: Anshuman Dash _K15t_
body: Hi Landon,

Yes, in this case, the space will be accessible to anyone who can find it. Unfortunately, this is the limitation of the anonymous access approach in Confluence.

Another workaround that I can think of is to create special users for each of these organizations and then share the credentials with them.

The above workaround has its own set of limitations, but at least it enables you to restrict access to the organizations.

Regards,

Dash.


author: Landon Funsten
body: Got it- thanks for your help! That's a frustrating limitation, but we'll figure it out. Thanks again, Dash!

macro that searches and retrieves data
Asked by HaRsHaS_ V:

Hi All

Background: I have created a sql query for a particular data and it shows as intended in clean tabular form.

Example

|--------------|--------------|
| Custom field | Field value  |
| color        | red, blue    |
| clothes      | jeans, shirt |

Question: I would want to know if there is any macro that searches and retrieves data.

What I mean is when someone types color , the related data should show up. Any possibility of this.

Because we do not want the complete table to shown to users.

Regards

Harsha


Answers:

The [Table Filter](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/27447/table-filter-and-charts-for-confluence?hosting=cloud&tab=overview) macro does exactly what you described. You can [set different filter](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/public/TFAC/Table+filtration#Tablefiltration-Filtertypesavailable) types like dropdown or text filter. Also, it might be useful to set [Show first N rows](https://docs.stiltsoft.com/display/TFAC/Sorting%2C+freezing+and+other+table+viewing+options#Sorting,freezingandothertableviewingoptions-ShowfirstNrows) to **0+** values so that the table will show empty until it is filtered.

Moving things within page sections?
Asked by James Salter:

After creating a page with multiple links, images, and formatted text all within a page section, I need to move items to different sections of the page, or re-order items within a section.

Why all tasks are marked as Done when creating tasks on new Confluence page?
Asked by Filip_Kupsa:

Whenever I create a new page in Confluence and create tasks on that page, Confluence marks all tasks as Done during saving the page.

This is quite annoying, because all task owners receive email notification that they have a new task, but the task is already done. Then I have to go, uncheck all tasks, one by one, and then all task owners receive another notification, that their tasks have changed status. This is not only unnecessary spamming of other users, but it is sometimes confusing for them.

Anyone observing the same behavior? Is there some workspace or global Confluence setting I have to change to stop this behavior?

Thanks for any help.


Answers:
author: Fadoua
body: [@Filip_Kupsa](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3327351)

Sync Fields between Confluence Pages
Asked by Tobias Schade:

Hello,

im looking for a tool oder a function in Confluence to sync different "Attributes" between pages.

My intention:

When we create new servers we document this server using Confluence. We create a "server document" where we collect information like:

* IP address
* server owner
* phyisical Servername
* DNS name
* installation guide
* etc.

But we also have a IP address list where we collect all IP address information with dns names.

What i want to do:

I only want to create the server document with all the information and the ip address list is automatically filled with the necessary information (IP address and DNS name).

Is there a basic function Confluence provides or any apps/tools to sync these information/attributes?

Regards

Tobias

ImageSizeException
Asked by Lucas_E_:

Hello everyone,

I have problems with uploading large images. This Server is used as a test environment for migrating our OneNote documentation to the Confluence Server. I can convert OneNote files to doc, docx, mht and others. Our OneNote files are filled with large images most of time. So I tried to import the converted files and everytime i get the following error message:

Das Dokument konnte nicht importiert werden. Es enth\\u00e4lt ein Bild mit der Gr\\u00f6\\u00dfe 2112 x 996, die die maximale Gr\\u00f6\\u00dfe 900 x 1200 \\u00fcberschreitet. Reduzieren Sie die Gr\\u00f6\\u00dfe des Bildes, oder wenden Sie sich an Ihren Administrator, um die Gr\\u00f6\\u00dfenbeschr\\u00e4nkung erh\\u00f6hen.

I don't know how good your german is, but it means that the image limitation is overwritten. Contact the admin or change the size of the image.  
As admin I don't find any option to change the limit. Except the size(which is 100MB and my files are not even 10MB).  
I hope you can understand my problem and help me fix it.  
Maybe try to convert the OneNotes to html?
