Image Choices on Cards
Asked by Diane Dean-Epps:

Hello Trello Community,

I have a "double question.

1. When using templates there are often images attached that may be utilized for the cover on the cards, but I don't want to use them for that particular card. How can I save these images to my choices, so that I may use them at a later time?

2. Where do I find images that aren't photographs, but rather in the style I've attached?![Reasoning_by_Ranganath.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/124231i7C8892092287BD70/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Reasoning_by_Ranganath.png")

body: Hello! I very much appreciate your response, along with the links, but I still don't see an answer to how I 1) Find/search for the style of image I attached to my original message; and 2) How do I save an image that's already an attachment in a template, e.g., this isn't my image, but rather one provided by Trello.

Thank you!

body: Hi [@Diane Dean-Epps](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4211682) ,

1. When you change the cover image you get the option to search, so search for illustration or find the image from different websites or google images!

2. Just click on the image after that you will get a link at the bottom of the screen open in a new tab, just click that and it will download automatically and if it doesn't start downloading and shows the image in the new tab then right-click on the image and click save as!

How do I link a board as a card within another board?
Asked by Grace Jensen:

We are a real estate company and we have a 2021 transaction board with the lists: Coming Soon, Active, Pending, Closed.

Then I have a separate board for each transaction.

I want each transaction board to show as a card within the main 2021 transaction board so I can see an overview of which phase each transaction is in with the ability to click each transaction card to then open up that transaction's board.

Confluence failed to restore .xml backup
Asked by Cormant Systems Administrator:

Hi All,

This is my third time posting about this topic. I will give a little background story of what happened.

So we have Confluence Software Server installed on one of our physical servers and unfortunately, all the disks in the said server got corrupt including the installation and home path of our confluence.

Our only backup is the XML file and I tried to restore it but during restoration, we encountered a problem with exportDescriptor. Then I checked our XML backup files and noticed that it only have the attachment and plugin folder. So I check on Atlassian documents about healthy backup and found out that entities.xml and exportDescriptor is missing on our XML backup.

My question is: Can we still restore our Confluence without this 2 missing file? or can we make or recreate our own entities and exportDescriptor file?   

Note: We cannot re generate backup from our Confluence server because it was corrupted and already reformatted. Our only hope now is the incomplete XML backup.

***We are willing to pay for a third party to troubleshoot and restore our Confluence. Thank you!***


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: I'm afraid it's the same answer as you got three months ago - you can't restore a system from data that isn't there.

You could, in theory, mock up the two missing ifiles, but your data was partially contained in the entities.xml, so if you restored from such a "repaired" backup, you''d end up with a Confluence with no spaces or pages.

comments: author: Cormant Systems Administrator
body: Hi Sir Nic,

That sounds bad on our Confluence instance, is there any way to convert or bring back the file in the "attachments" folder in .xml backup to its original file type? we just want to recover the files on our Confluence. Thank you.

CVE-2022-26134 and confluence server version 5.1.5
Asked by Danijel Pavlovic:

Hi ,

So given that the jar/class file workaround is compiled on Java 8 is it possible to get the files compiled for at least java 7 so that we can implement the workaround on earlier versions that aren't able to upgrade to java8?

Files that would require to be recompiled-

* [xwork-1.0.3-atlassian-10.jar](https://packages.atlassian.com/maven-internal/opensymphony/xwork/1.0.3-atlassian-10/xwork-1.0.3-atlassian-10.jar)

* [webwork-2.1.5-atlassian-4.jar](https://packages.atlassian.com/maven-internal/opensymphony/webwork/2.1.5-atlassian-4/webwork-2.1.5-atlassian-4.jar)

* [CachedConfigurationProvider.class](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/files/1130377146/1137639562/3/1654274890463/CachedConfigurationProvider.class)

Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: I'm afraid not, you are way out of support, by many years, and your only option to become secure is to upgrade to a supported version of Confluence, on a secure and supported version of Jave, not try to mess around with bits of old libraries.

Confluence server redirecting to setup page. how do i restore access without deleting from database?
Asked by derek_sorenson:

Recently.. our confluence server was returning an 502 Bad Gateway error from our reverse proxy. [self hosted confluence server](https://kb.ifctrl.net) . I restarted our reverse proxy server and the confluence hosted server. After that... it started redirecting me to the setup page... asking for our license ... etc. I then logged into my atlassian account and realized our license were expired... I renewed our license and input that information on the setup page.... The setup page continued to ask questions about the database.. I input the connection details to the database... however.. now I'm stuck on this page...."/setup/setupdata-start.action"... if you go to link you will see the page. I am not the original person who setup this self-hosted confluence.

I would like to restore our confluence server back to working condition without deleting any data from the mysql database. the xml backup on the server seems to be from months ago...   

Is the data saved in the mysql database and is there a way to restore the server with the data in there?  

<br />


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: This sounds like your Confluence crashed (502 means "proxy is not getting a response from the server"), but also that the database connection has gone wrong. The reversion to setup means that Confluence does not think it is connected to a (working) database.

The usual way to do this is someone edited the application properties file - it wouldn't be asking for connection settings if it had them.

Three things to look at

* The configuration file in Confluence's home directory - are the database settings correct?
* Is there data in the Confluence database?
* What do the logs say at startup?

Is there a backup for Confluence (Cloud) files ?
Asked by Dave Nemes:

I was working in a document in Confluence. The menu bar kept flashing about every 25 seconds. It would NOT let me Publish the document, and it would NOT let me save the document. Is there a backup somewhere I can access with respect to my account ? Dave


Answers:
author: Andy Gladstone
body: [@Dave Nemes](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4684078) Welcome to Confluence Cloud!

In general, there is no backup of Confluence Cloud as all of the files and data are stored on your cloud instance and should be accessible unless you permanently delete the files/pages.

Your scenario sounds like there should be a draft saved for the work you were doing - even if your publish request timed out. **Confluence autosaves as you go** , so this creates a draft -- an unpublished page that you can get back to at any time by heading to your Home page and select Drafts from panel on the left under your profile picture/avatar.

Can you see this draft there?

comments: author: Dave Nemes
body: Hi Andy...

Yes I can see the untitled draft in DRAFTS. There are a few edits missing, but 10 mins work compared to 3 hours work to re-create it! Thank you so much for responding and suggesting to look in DRAFT, very much appreciated.

Square bracket for undefined link not working
Asked by Jessvin Thomas:

I'm running confluence cloud and trying to create "undefined links" by typing \[Link Name\].

This is not working for me, its rendering just as I typed it instead of creating a link for me. This used to work on previous versions of confluence and especially server. According to this documentation it should still work:

<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-links-and-anchors/#Internal-links>

\[Link\]

\[ Link \]

\[ Link \] ([www.link.com](http://www.link.com))

How can I create placeholder links for future confluence pages?

Upload a Articulate Storyline 360 File
Asked by Cherie Risoldi-Hubbell:

How do I go about uploading an Articulate Storyline 360 file to a Confluence page so it can still be interactive? The instructions from the Articulate site say to publish as a Web Version and add it that way but that is not working. Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

I'm not aware of any app that supports rendering those files in Confluence.

I'm not sure what a "web version" of the file might be, but I would guess that it is plain html, which is not something Confluence renders, it's intended to be put on a web server.

Page properties report not populating results
Asked by Cassie McCullough:

I am setting up a page properties report on a confluence site almost identically to one I have set up on another team site except it will not populate on the new site. I have checked that the labels match between the page with the page properties macro and the settings for the page properties report macro. I tried it both without an ID and with an ID for the chart. The chart has a left header row. Are there site level administrative settings that could be different?

How to remove Outlook events from a Confluence Team Calendar after calDav profile is deleted?
Asked by Kumari Ponnambalam:

Hello,

I followed the set of instruction on this page (<https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/subscribe-to-team-calendars-from-microsoft-outlook/>) to setup a 2-way sync using calDav for our team's Calendar on Confluence.

However as soon as I created an event on Confluence Calendar, the sync brought ALL my Outlook events ( unrelated to team in question) to the Confluence Calendar.

I deleted the calDAV synchronization profile in Outlook. How do I remove the events in Confluence that are unrelated to the team?

Is the only option now to delete this calendar?

Appreciate any pointers.


Answers:
author: Jessica
body: Hi Kumari,

Hope you are doing well and Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

<br />

I understand you got some issues when integrating the events from the Outlook Calendar and Team Calendars there, and you are hoping to remove the additional and unwanted events.

Although I'm not sure how this happened, are you able to click on the event in the Team Calendar page and delete it? There should be a trash icon in the event.

Since the sync profile in Outlook was deleted, it may not be the best option to re-do the integration again, but if you are unable to delete the events in the Team Calendars side as well, it might be an option to delete the Calendar, although not optimal.

We highly recommend doing a "backup" of the Calendar before proceeding with any steps though.

To do that, go to the Calendar in the Space it is located, click on the three dots button next to the **Calendar name \> Export to iCalendar**.

Unfortunately, we don't have an easier way to undo it, but we have this [Feature Request](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-72763) suggesting a revision history, so unwanted changes can be reverted, just like in this case, Kumari.

If we missed anything, please let us know!   

Kindest Regards,  
Jessica

CPU and memory are being fully consumed after 7.18.1 patch
Asked by Whipcord NOC:

Hello Atlassian Community,

I'm running into issues with the new 7.18.1 patch. After I upgrade, my CPU and RAM become fully consumed which causes confluence to crash. I checked the logs and I saw that there was a Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError. I thought that it could be possible that the new version needs additional resources so I gave my VM 6 CPU / 16 GB ram and it still grinds to a halt.

Is anyone else having this issue? I would like to get confluence working on 7.18.1 so that I can be protected against the most recent CVE threat.

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Daniel Ebers

author: Maurice Lawles
body: I'm not sure what your specific configuration was, but we had the same issue because the /bin/setenv.sh file was overwritten with the default during the upgrade and we lost our Java heap size modifications in the CATALINA_OPTS variable. Default was 1024m, we use 4GB.
