Personal Space Template?
Asked by Pahniti Tosuksri:

Hi all,

I'm setting up our user roll-out and would love to utilize Personal Spaces as a template to get folks started.

We are utilizing Confluence Cloud.

Personal spaces appear to be locked on the "Old" editor

We attempted to edit the Global template - Default Personal Space Content

* Upon edit, new Personal Spaces Overview pages are blank
* When I revert back to default, it takes it back the old version, but default template is applied

What's the best way for us to roll out the Default Personal Space Content? Any function I need to turn on?


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Pahniti,

Thank you for contacting us about this.

I'm attempting to replicate your issue. This is what I have done thus far:

1. Navigated to **Confluence Admin Setting** s \> **Global Templates and Blueprints**
2. Edit **Default Personal Space Content**. Make changes in this template. Save.
3. Create a new personal space.

I can confirm that the overview page for me is **not** blank, and is on the old editor.

Can you confirm if these were the steps you were taking, or if you were making some other modification?

Regards,

Shannon

comments: author: Pahniti Tosuksri
body: I did fiddle around with it some more and noticed that if I did not include certain macros (I think I had added another 'note' macro), it saved fine and rendered OK when creating the new personal page.

Thanks!


author: Shannon S
body: Pahniti,

Thank you for confirming that you were able to determine the cause and you're able to create a new personal page.

Take care, and have a pleasant weekend.

Regards,

Shannon

An unexpected error occurred during step: Migrating users and groups. Error: We couldn't migra
Asked by Sean Dowd:

71% - An unexpected error occurred during step: Migrating users and groups. Error: We couldn't migrate your users because you will exceed your user limit for Confluence Cloud. Upgrade your cloud plan and try again.

I'm trying to migrate into my existing server license (50 user) and have about 150 current users, 100 of which are disabled. When I did a test migration, **all** of the users migrated along with the spaces I selected. I then ensured that the disabled users were disabled in cloud. No problems. But when I tried the ++exact same thing on my existing server license cloud trial++ , I got the error above. (The percentage is useless and has nothing to do with the number of users migrated.) Since I have **no way to select which users are migrated**, I had to try deleting users from my current server version. This means I now have anonymous references in data going back 8 or more years.

Why does trial migration on an existing license work differently than a regular trial one?


Answers:
author: Daniel Brito _Atlassian_
body: Hello Sean,

The trial for Cloud products don't have users limit, so you can have unlimited active users if you have an annual subscription, then it's limited to a certain number of users per application.

We do have a feature request to improve that behavior:

[Improve import validation to check for licensed users instead of active users when target Cloud instance is on Annual Plan](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/MIG-67 "Improve import validation to check for licensed users instead of active users when target Cloud instance is on Annual Plan")

The way the import works, it will look for active users currently on your site, and for those active users coming with your backup, if it exceeds the license number then it will throw this error.

Of course, we understand your frustration and we are working to improve our products especially our migration tools.

If you need any further clarification, please, let us know.

Thank you for posting this it will help other customers with the same problem you had.

How do I add an automatic page Title in a Template?
Asked by May Nguyen:

I notice when adding a template, the page title doesn't propogate when actually using the template as a new page. How can I have an automated Title format appear?


Answers:
author: Diego
body: Hello there, [@May Nguyen](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2644559) !

As I understand, you need to *++automatically create page titles++*. This also needs to be applied using a specific template. Is that correct?

To make a long story short, I can tell you that this is possible in our Self-hosted (server/datacenter) versions of Confluence, but not in Cloud

The solution relies on *++User Macros,++* which are *++not available in Confluence Cloud++*. Here is a list of differences between Cloud and Self-hosted:

Load child pages in Iframe
Asked by Edward Luke Magrin:

Hi all,

I am looking to do the following:

I have a page called Application, and several child pages called Case #1, #2.. #N.

So far I have managed to display these in a table using a children display macro.

What im looking for is a way that, when i click on one of these links, it loads in an iframe that is placed next to it. is this possible? or do i have to load the child in a completely new window?

thanks in advance.


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello [@Edward Luke Magrin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3553942),

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you.

This sort of requirement would need to be done using script, but this isn't possible in Confluence Cloud.

See [CONFCLOUD-28464](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-28464) (*Option to make links target iFrame macro*) which was raised in the past for this request, but closed, as we do not have plans to implement this in the near future.

You can try to load your pages using the [iFrame Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/iframe-macro-950276528.html), but you wouldn't be able to target a link from outside of the frame into the iFrame. It would need to be loading from there from the start.

Let me know if you have any questions about this.

Regards,

Shannon

Populating a confluence table with Jira issues
Asked by Techmavin:

I am able to view a list of Jiras in confluence using the Jira macro.

I want to display the Jiras in a Confluence Table.

I can create an empty table but need help getting the Jira list to display in the confluence table.


Answers:

body: [@Techmavin](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3553906)Jira Issues Macro is only way in stock Confluence to get the list of Jira issues in confluence. You can't not change output this macro to be a table etc.

If you still want to render issues in default Confluence Table, you either need to create a custom Macro Plugin, or use marketplace plugins like "Advanced Table for Confluence" and consume Jira data using Jira's Rest API.

List all pages with the same labels as the current page
Asked by Halvard Meijer:

Is there a way to automatically populate content by label macro (or similar) with the same labels as the ones on the current page.

I want to be able to create pages where the user adds labels and populates them to the content by label macro. I will then use this to create a "related content" on the current page.

It's possible to do this manually, but with the space and labels growing this would need a lot of maintainance.


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Halvard,

Thank you for contacting us about this.

It's not currently possible to use the current page as a reference for the Content by Labels macro. There's a feature request below for this:

* [CONFSERVER-56330](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-56330) *Related content based on current page tags*

Please vote on the request to show you'd be interested in this too. As an alternative, there might be an add-on that could help you with this, so I would have a look at the [Labels add-ons from Atlassian Marketplace](https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?marketingLabel=&query=label&cost=&category=&hosting=&product=confluence&_ga=2.176341733.1307543515.1568621172-1999825829.1533742022).

Wrong hyphenation on bolded, italics or underline formatting (PDF-Export)
Asked by Copac CS Stendal:

1.When I export an article to a PDF hyphenation don't work if the last word of line is bolded (or *italic* or ++underline)++.

This is an example sentence showing**hyph** **enation** . (wrong hyphenation if last word is bolded or *italic* or ++underline++)

2.If last word is not bolded or *italic* or ++underline++ hyphenation works fine.

High-cpu load client-side with viewpdf-macro
Asked by Pascal:

I'm on MacOS Mojave 10.14.6 with Firefox Quantum 69.0 (my browser of choice ;)

I have several tabs open in the browser. Whenever I click on the tab that shows a page on Confluence Cloud with the Viewpdf-macro on it (view- or edit-mode, doesn't matter) there's a "FirefoxCP Web Content"-process that goes up to 200-250% CPU. When I click on another tab with no Viewpdf-macro included (e.g. a news site) the CPU-usage of said process drops almost immediately to 5-10%.

It does not seem to be a problem with a particular PDF-file. I can reproduce the behaviour on several pages that each have another PDF on them. The viewpdf-macro does seem to have to work harder for particular PDF-files (in that case the typical Mac "spinner" is shown more than the actual content of the file), but even for pages where the macro has no problems rendering the PDF the CPU-usage still goes way up (as does the fan noise).


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Pascal,

Thank you for contacting us regarding this.

I've been able to replicate this myself on Firefox in Catalina, and can confirm a CPU spike there as well.

I've reported the issue below:

List of pages created with a particular template
Asked by Savvas Sarikas:

Hi everyone,

i am wondering if there is a way to generate a report that will include all confluence pages created using a particular template.

Thank you.


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Savvas,

Thank you for contacting us about this.

It's not possible to apply this to past pages created with the template, but you can use labels to keep track of pages created with a template.

You would [set a default label when creating the template](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/create-a-template-296093779.html?_ga=2.109612997.1307543515.1568621172-1999825829.1533742022#CreateaTemplate-Labels). That way, all pages created with that template will have a specific label. Then you can use the label when you want to report on pages created with that template.

Let me know if you have any questions about that.

Shannon

Switching between Confluence and Jira not working anymore after upgrade to Confluence 6.15.9
Asked by Sven:

Hi,

after upgrading Confluence to version 6.15.9 and Jira to version 8.33 we aren't able to switch from Confluence to Jira using the application link in the upper left corner of the Confluence Webpage.

If we try to switch between Confluence and Jira there is only a loading sign.

If we want to Switch from Jira to Confluence over application link it works.

Seems weird

The User-Picture in the upper Right corner of the Webpage isn't shown too, but if you mouseover it you can klick the Buttons.

If i was logged in as Administrator both are shown and working correctly.

Search isn't available too.

If you type a word, search will not open.

Has anybody a clue how to solve this?

How to render HEIC images in a Confluence page?
Asked by Ellie Bachvarova:

I'm using an iPhone to take pictures, and a MacBook Pro to add images to a Confluence page.

How do I make iPhone images render on a confluence page rather than getting this:

![Screenshot 2019-09-10 at 08.15.33.png](/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/65643i6831A065338FE179/image-size/large?v=v2&px=999 "Screenshot 2019-09-10 at 08.15.33.png")(I've copied the image from <https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-65672>, but the issue is the same and there has been no progress on it since Feb 2019)


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hi Ellie,

Welcome to Atlassian Community. It's nice to meet you.

I've encountered this same issue myself in a variety of places while sharing images from my iPhone. It appears that it's not converting Live Photos properly to a readable image file. I've not only encountered this in Confluence but on Slack, and a variety of 3rd party apps from the App Store.

My workaround for this is to disable the Live Photo on the image that I want to attach. Instructions can be found on Apple's website: [Edit Photos and Videos](https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/edit-photos-and-videos-iphb08064d57/ios)

1. Open the Live Photo.
2. Tap **Edit**.
3. Tap the **Live Photo** button at the top of the screen, turning off the Live Photo functionality.

You can then upload the image from your iPhone, and you'll see it is now a .jpg file.

You can go back into the photo later if you want to switch back on the Live Photo functionality.

Let me know if you have any trouble with that!

Regards,

Shannon
