Welcome to the Atlassian Community!!!

In order to create a new group in confluence, you need confluence Administrator access. Please reach out to your confluence Admin and provide details or you can ask them for access at your convenience.

Cheers,

welcome to the Atlassian community!

Just a Confluence Admin can create groups. If your instance is linked to an Active Directory, that group could be created on that side and it will automaticcaly synched on confluence.

If you want to create a group locally to Confluence, you need Confluence Admin permissions.

Hope this helps,

Error in List of Historical Blogs in Confluence Blog Space
Asked by Tan Chow Tun:

It was noted that the list of historical blogs grouped by month in the Confluence Blog Space is not appearing properly with repeated months with the same historical blogs. This has caused the calender list not able to show the list historical blogs prior to the repeated month.

You faced an error? Whats the error and the issue is with calendar and not arranging the blogs ? I am confused here. Could you please let me know what exactly is the issue. If possible share a screen recording to understand it better.

Difference between LTS vs Normal release
Asked by Ashitha S:

Difference between Long term support release vs normal release


Answers:
author: Pavel Junek
body: Hi Ashitha,

[Normal Release](https://confluence.atlassian.com/support/atlassian-data-center-and-server-bug-fix-policy-201294573.html) is a regular release that Atlassian issues once every 1-2 months. Support for bug fixes and security is only 6 months from the release of a particular version. It is suitable for users who always want to have the latest.

An [LTS Release](https://confluence.atlassian.com/enterprise/long-term-support-releases-948227420.html) is a specific version of an application for which patches and security patches are released for 2 years from the release of that version. It is suitable for users who cannot upgrade to newer versions frequently.

Pavel

comments: author: Ashitha S
body: Is the cost of license same for both LTS release and Normal Release?


author: Pavel Junek
body: Yes, one licence for all Atlassian Releases.


author: Richee Pitchee
body: Hi Pavel, I have a question on updates of the LTS version. For example, I have Confl LTS version 7.19.5. Do I need to manually update to newer versions of 7.19.x? In other words, is it secure to stick any version of LTS, or does Atlassian expect me to upgrade regularly, now to the latest 7.19.11.  

Thank you


author: Pavel Junek
body: Hi Richee,

How often you upgrade is up to you - no one is telling you to do it. LTS version means that Altassian will deliver Security and Bug fix version for 2 years. For the regular non-LTS version, Atlassian only delivers Bug and Security fixes only for 6 months.

Pavel


author: Richee Pitchee
body: Hi Pavel, thank you for your comment.  
My question, howewer, was practical:   
1. Do I need to manually and regularly update to newer versions of 7.19.x?  

2. I use this page to find out, what is new in the LTS <https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-7-19-release-notes-1141976784.htmlH> How do I filter issues, that are security issues? Or, are all issues security-important and it is necessary for me to upgrade every time that new version 7.19.x is released ?

Thank you


author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@Ashitha S](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4981511) ,

a Long Term Release is a stable *release* maintained for a longer period of time. I suggest to use LTS for enterprise customers.

moved pages disappeared
Asked by Ivan Andrieiev:

I moved a set of pages from one section to another. In that set there were pages that the author restricted for all users and made available only to one person (the author was not me). When moving pages, the author does not see these pages in the new and in the old section and sees only the page to which I had access. Did the pages get lost during the move or are they left somewhere?


Answers:
author: Fabio Racobaldo _Herzum_
body: Hi [@???? ???????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4741871) ,

About visibility, probably pages have been moved in a path not visible to user because parent restrictions.

comments: author: Ivan Andrieiev
body: Those pages were inaccessible to me from the very beginning, they were available only to the author and the person to whom access was granted. I have not seen them, and I do not see the problem that the author does not see them now either.


author: Max Foerster - K15t
body: Hey [@???? ???????](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4741871)

I'm pretty sure the pages are still available when searching for them, right? Maybe they ended up outside of the page tree (not underneath the homepage but next to it in the hierarchy). Have a look at the content tools of that space and try to locate them there. They are definitely not gone.

Best, Max ?

If we get the license for 7.13.x confluence version, can we get the 7.19.x with same license(7.13.x)
Asked by Ashitha S:

If we get the license for 7.13.x confluence version, can we use the same license for upgrading from 7.13.x to 7.19.x?


Answers:
author: Sreenivasaraju P
body: Hi [@Ashitha S](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4981511) ,

Confluence license is not per version. If you have active license, then you can upgrade.  
7.18.2 is the latest version released on 21-Jun-2022.  
By the time 7.19.x is released, if your license is active then you can upgrade or you can renew without changing user tier and upgrade

comments: author: Ashitha S
body: Is 7.18.2 a stable version ?


author: Sreenivasaraju P
body: Do you mean Long Term Support release ? No. 7.18.2 is not Long Term Support release.

You refer below link for all release notes and details.

<https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/confluence-release-notes-327.html>


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: All releases of Atlassian software in the main downloads are "stable". It is not a useful concept to discuss when trying to work out what version you would like.

(The closest I would get to seeing it as a useful term is that you could argue the Early Access releases are less stable, because you should never use them for production)

What you need to think through here is if you want a long-term support release, or the latest version.

Your licence entitles you to any version that is released before the end of your licence.

I'm slightly concerned that you may be asking about a new licence (rather than a renewal) - you can't buy new licences any more.

All support for Server stops in February 2024, so you won't be able to licence it past that point.

Risks of not upgrading Sever based Confluence 6.0.5 version
Asked by Priyanka Sharma:

Hello Team,

Currently we have on prem Confluence 6.0.5 version running, what are the risks involved in not upgrading to higher version.

Thanks,

Priyanka


Answers:
author: Mayur Jadhav
body: Hi [@Priyanka Sharma](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/344732) .

Atlassian has released a vulnerability guide and mentioned this vulnerability as critical.  
I don't know the exact risk, but I will tell you our scenario.

One of our client confluence compromised with this vulnerability and there was totally down an entire home directory of confluence was deleted and some files were locked. So we have to create a new infrastructure on new AWS node1 and node2 and we restored the confluence. It;s better if you upgrade on a timely basis so your instance won't be affected by this. Atlassian Team help us to restore our confluence.

You can review the vulnerability.

Please give details on the latest stable version of confluence

Require details on the latest stable version of Confluence


Answers:
author: Ollie Guan
body: Hi [@Ashitha S](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4981511) ,

It's hard for you to define which version is the most stable.

We have more than 30,000 users using Confluence data centers, which generate hundreds of thousands of visits and updates every day.

The version currently in use is **7.13.2**, which I think is very stable.

The case of my team for your reference.

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-articles/Ctrip-s-Confluence-data-center-operation-practice-with-more-than/ba-p/1726224>

Btw, 7.19.x is scheduled to be released in Q3, but the exact date is unknown.

Ugh- why does checking a box on an action item scroll the page up???
Asked by Laura McWilliams:

This seriously drives me BONKERS. I'm not sure if it happens every time. But very often, when I'm editing a page that has "action items" on it (those little checkboxes), when I check one of them, it causes the page to scroll back up to the top, causing me to lose my place. Some of the pages I'm editing can be quite long so it's not that easy to find the place where I was, and very often I will have to check off multiple action items at once in the same area of a page.

WHAT IS THE DEAL WITH THIS?!?! How to fix it??? It literally causes an edit that should take 5 seconds to take minutes instead.

I'm using Firefox on OS X.

In the interests of spouses, and others, everywhere please address this annoyance!


author: Jelle Oostmeijer
body: Hi,

we ran into this issue recently. Also working with checkboxes in edit mode of a confluence page.

What I found was that the editor jumps back to where the cursus is. Normally when editing a page that would be the top of the document.

When you click the text behind the checkbox which you want to edit to give the cursor a new location the editor will jump to the same position of the view you're already in. Now you can click the checkboxes without jumping around on the page. Put the cursor at a new position to continue working on that height in the page.

It's kind of a work-around, but worked for us to be able to edit pages.

Regards,

Jelle


author: Tiffany Ryck
body: Glad I'm not the only one experiencing this and being VERY frustrated by it. When you have a long page of check boxes it's very annoying to have to scroll and find your spot again after you've checked one.

I did find a workaround though! If you click on the row you are checking, so the cursor appears in that row of text, it won't scroll back to the top and stays on that row. Hope that makes sense.

Repeat card and list dates
Asked by Andrew Stuart:

When a repeat card comes due and is opened I can use butler to change the due date of the card and other instructions is clear like un clicking the Check list but I cannot find out where to reset the Check list due date to be moved forwards by the came period ? Do I have to open a special field to do this ?

.


Answers:
author: Cody C.
body: We have a way to do this with Due Dates on *cards* but not with Due Dates in checklist items I'm afraid. The next best option would be to use this rule type to move the due date to a static date. While it wouldn't necessarily move the checklist items the same amount of time as your Due Date, it could be a way to get them to stay somewhat relative.

I have just downloaded troll and accepted a 30 day trial
Asked by Cate Reid:

the issue I have is I don't understand what is included in the basic and what is the difference with the upgrade to business.

I am a wedding celebrant and I would like to create boards for each month and then invite and share individual cards and attachments with bride/grooms.

Can I do this on the basic version or do I need to upgrade to business?

Warmest regards,

Cate


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Cate Reid](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4263905) if you want to create boards for each client, then you'll need Business Class, however so long as you only invite each person to one board (eg. bride + groom to their own wedding board) you won't pay for them. So for example if it was you and your assistant with access to all boards, then you'd be 2 paid team members, but each bride/groom would only be a single board guest and would not be billable.

comments: author: Cate Reid
body: Thanks, so just to confirm my understanding of boards/cards!

I have a board called wedding ceremonies 2021 with approx 30 individual cards made up for all the weddings booked. Am I right in thinking that I can add an email address (bride) to every card within this board on the basic account and no occur any costs?

Warmest regards,

Cate


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Cate Reid](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4263905) yes that's right if it's all one board you can have as many cards as you like and you can put email addresses on the cards, that won't cost anything. You can have up to 10 boards in your free team.

Incidentally, if you'd like to be able to email the brides directly from the Trello cards you might like my product BenkoDesk:

Can't move card using butler from one board to another

comments: author: reception_dancemantra
body: Hello Iain, yes I have tried. Command is not working. If I use butler to keep the card in same board then it works but if I apply an action to move it in a different board then it doesn't.

Is there anything I need to enable in the board I want to see my card move ?


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@reception_dancemantra](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4263819) hmmm no all that should matter is that the member running the command is on both boards.

I think perhaps you need to go back to trello.com/contact and get in touch with Trello Support directly instead of asking here in the community.

body: Alright, I have also reached out to them as well.

Thank you for your time.
Overdue cards
Asked by Cat:

On the Trello app I used to be able to see all cards from all boards assigned to me including those that are overdue in order. Now I can only do this on the website rather than the app, please can you confirm if there is any way to revert this back to how it was before?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Cat](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4263814) as far as I'm aware this has never been a feature of the mobile app. The closest you can get on the mobile app is to search (not filter) using:

```
@me due:overdue is:open?
```

Or you can tap on the "Home" screen in the mobile app which kind of does this.

comments: author: Cat
body: Thanks Iain that's a useful way around it. I could definitely see it before on the app on the Home Screen but now the home page is empty and only shows any recent activity rather than overdue cards. I will use the way you have suggested in the search tool as a work around it just seems strange that it has changed. Thanks!
Dumb question: creating a personal, not team board
