Please help error with macro Include Page.
Asked by Tom Sch?lke:

I?ve constructed a "**Masterpage"** in my space, where i put in some **global informations** and scripts that i want to show on each page of my space..

now using the **page include macro** on each other page and point to my masterpage, displays just as i hoped the information i want to show up on each new page of my space, where i use this page include macro *(i have constructed a Blueprint for these new pages where i always have the page include macro that points to my masterpage..)*

This is essention useful, because now, to edit the overal information on each page of the space, only has to be done once , in the Masterpage, and everywhere the infos change. Especialy helpful when you are not so sure what information to spread everywhere...

(Its a bit comparable to a Masterpage in Adobes Indesign layout programm)..

**NOW THE PROBLEM:**

**the infos get displayed on each of my Sides.. But i just cant get rid of the Scrollbar that displays below.. the Masterpage shows up inside of the pages frame, and seems to be just a little big bigger..**

**this looks horrible.. so is there any workaround ? Or other ways, to spread instantiated text and macros all over a Space, so i woudnt have to change on hundrets of pages everything ..**

**I need something like the Masterpages in Indesign.. any idea ? maybe on the marketplace ? or Workaround. ?**

Answers:
author: Zak Laughton
body: Hi Ravi,

The "Spring application context has not been set" is a generic error that can have a number of different causes. Most often though, we see this caused by the user running Confluence not having full access to the directory.

I recommend running through the troubleshooting steps listed on [Confluence does not start due to Spring Application context has not been set](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/confluence-does-not-start-due-to-spring-application-context-has-not-been-set-218278311.html), which cover the most common solutions for this error.

Thanks!

Create personal scheduling Confluence page updates with new content
Asked by Laurie Boczar:

I am in charge of keeping our Confluence pages updated. The content on the pages is mostly design standards for a very large company.

Is there a way to create reminders to review pages?

Is there a way to sync a date in the content of a page to a confluence calendar?


Answers:
author: Deborah Cross
body: For our reviews we use the page properties macro to create a hidden block of metadata at the top of each page. In that block of metadata we include a review date, status, version numbers and various other notes and categorisation.

We then use the page properties report macro to create a report page with the table sorted in review-date order so that we know what pages need review when. Regular meetings review the list and ensure people are tasked to do the work. When the page is reviewed, update the metadata and it is automatically sent to the bottom of the list.

You could take it a step further and use the confluence task option in the metadata to assign tasks to individuals with due dates, but as far as I'm aware, confluence tasks don't 'remind' the assignee that the task is due - assignees need to monitor their own task lists. But you can generate reports on tasks which would show you who specifically is overdue rather than just what page. Not an issue if you're the only assignee though.

Creating Space Blueprints on Confluence Cloud
Asked by Christopher Chong:

We want to create a new Space Blueprint on a Confluence Cloud instance.

Currently all we can do is disable different Space Blueprints.

I've looked at the community and found some posts, but most answers are either for Atlassian Server, for using existing Space Blueprints, or for making Page Blueprints.


Answers:
author: Malte Hansen
body: It has been more than 5 years, and this simple function is not possible. Any updates at all on how to create new Space Blueprints in Confluence Cloud?


author: AnnWorley
body: Hi Christopher,

The closest we have in Confluence Cloud to the [space blueprint functionality in Confluence server](Write a simple Confluence Space blueprint) is [Multi-page blueprints with Confluence Connect](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/confluence/multi-page-blueprints-with-confluence-connect/). Please note that page and space blueprints for Confluence are plugins and require development skills to produce.

We had a suggestion open to include the ability to create space blueprints in Confluence Cloud, but it was closed as "won't fix". You can read the explanation from the development team on: [Support creating space blueprints in Connect](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-61074)

Thanks,

Ann

comments: author: Christopher Chong
body: Hi [@AnnWorley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/502040), I went through the Multi-page blueprints tutorial, but when I tried going through it just by following the instructions, running npm start caused an error in one of the dependencies. I also looked at the repository that the tutorial is based off of, and the code is over two years old at this point.

Furthermore, I went and modified some of the dependencies in the package.json and updated the app.js file to use the correct instantiation for the middleware when using a higher version of Express. When I did this, I was able to at least install the plugin, but noticed that it would hook into the job that was running on my computer. As a result, if I stopped the process running the npm job, the plugin would no longer work. Even when I restarted it, it would look for the old hook, and the job that I restarted would be using a different hash as an identifier.

Create sub-task from Confluence space
Asked by jherrera2181:

Is there a way to create a sub-task for a project from Confluence. I'm creating issues from Confluence but once I select the project this issue type is not being included on the list. I've looked at the project configuration and Sub-Task is already included in the issue type scheme.


Answers:
author: AnnWorley
body: Hi Juan,

I tried on my test instance and experienced the same behavior you are describing. My sub-task issue types are not available when I highlight text in Confluence to create a Jira issue.

Further research revealed we have a suggestion ticket open to add the functionality: [Ability to create jira sub-tasks in confluence](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-24570).

Please comment or vote on the issue to communicate directly with the development team. There is more info on how we prioritize features in [Implementation of New Features Policy](https://confluence.atlassian.com/support/implementation-of-new-features-policy-201294576.html).

In a similar vein to the JIRA question, is confluence cloud encrypted at Rest?
Asked by Sandy Coleman:

From a security perspective we require all data at rest and in motion to be encrypted. If it is not encrypted today are their plans in your roadmap to encrypt it?


Answers:
author: lauren
body: Hi [@Sandy Coleman](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1743909)

I just wanted to provide an update here.

We recently announced that Atlassian now encrypts customer data at rest.

Data drives on servers holding customer data and attachments in Jira Software Cloud, Jira Service Desk Cloud, Jira Core Cloud, Confluence Cloud, Statuspage, OpsGenie, and Trello use full disk, industry-standard AES-256 encryption at rest. To learn more, please see our [Security Practices page.](https://www.atlassian.com/trust/security/security-practices#faq-5fd9f2cf-d7c7-40fa-af1f-854e2d9f3f48 "https://www.atlassian.com/trust/security/security-practices#faq-5fd9f2cf-d7c7-40fa-af1f-854e2d9f3f48")

We post updates related to security, privacy, compliance, and more in our [Trust \& Security group](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trust-Security/gp-p/TrustandSecurity). Feel free to post related questions and feedback there!

Best,

Lauren


author: AnnWorley
body: Hi Sandy,

At present, Atlassian Cloud data is not encrypted at rest, only data in transit and attachments are encrypted. Please see: [Security practices](https://www.atlassian.com/trust/security/security-practices#faq-5fd9f2cf-d7c7-40fa-af1f-854e2d9f3f48):
> Content stored within Jira Cloud and Confluence Cloud isn't encrypted. However, attachments on storage in AWS are encrypted. We believe we can rely on the physical controls and management at AWS, as well as transit-level encryption to protect customer data. A minimum of 128-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is used for attachments.

I am following up internally to see if encryption is in the Atlassian Cloud roadmap for data that is not in transit.

Thanks,

Ann

comments: author: Sandy Coleman
body: Thanks Ann I would appreciate the roadmap answer as we will have to move away from Atlassian cloud if it can not store data at rest encrypted in the near future.

How to setup transaction-isolation under aurora db on aws
Asked by Karan Zaveri:

We are trying to setup confluence over to an AWS instance, and using aurora as db backend.

When we run the installation of confluence, it complains about the value of transaction-isolation.

**Incorrect isolation level**

Your database must use 'READ-COMMITTED' as the default isolation level. [Learn more](http://confluence.atlassian.com/x/GAtmDg)

The link specifies changes in mysql config or in confluence config both of which cannot be implemented due to following reasons - we don't have access to modify aurora config file, and the confluence config file doesn't have the entries as mentioned in the link.

How can we setup the value in aurora ?

Thanks


Answers:
author: Karan Zaveri
body: I created an options group, and added single entry for the tx_isolation in it, and then modified the aurora instance and assigned the group to it.

Page tree macro modification
Asked by Shireen Gonzaga:

For the page tree macro, the root page is specified but only the child pages below it are displayed in the tree.

Is there a way to modify the macro such that the root page is displayed (as level 1) in the tree? I'm not a programmer, so some tips on where to get a copy of the macro and modify it to show the root page would be super-helpful.

Thanks,

Shireen


Answers:

body: Here is some macro code that might help to get you started with your own Java macro: <https://bitbucket.org/atlassian/confluence-advanced-macros-plugin/src/master/>

A second option (on Confluence Server) are [user macros](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/writing-user-macros-4485.html): Did not try it by myself, but at <https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/Creating-a-Custom-Page-Tree-macro/qaq-p/469709> there is a user macro that might help to get you started?

author: Lauren Schroeder
body: Hi Shireen,

I'm not sure of an easy way to modify the macro to change what root page is displayed.

If you're using the macro in a limited set of cases, a workaround could be to create a 'dummy' parent page within your page tree. You could create a parent page for your root page, and select it as your root page in the macro. This would then display your actual root page as the level 1 in your tree.

Best,

Lauren
