How can I make adaptive content based on user?
Asked by Lorenzo Koning:

Hi everyone,  

I want to make a homepage on which there are 9 images with links. 6 of these should be shown for every user on the page but the remaining three should be customisable by the users. Currently I have this made with excerpts and excerpt includes but the problem here is that if one user wants to change his/her links, the links are changed for every other user. I have been looking into using personal spaces for each user but how can I load these in the homepage based on which user is logged in?

Why not have a home page with nine images with links that everyone can see, where the last 3 are images/links to three individual pages, which mirror the home page. Each page has a single user Read and Write permission for the user in question. No one else has access. That way person who has access to the page can custom their page without fear of someone else mucking their links.

This would work on small scales but when you are dealing with 500 users who all need a different homepage in this scenario it becomes less and less useable. also the fact that if the homepage needs to be edited, this needs to then be done for all the individual user homepages as well.


author: Mike Bowen
body: Hi [@Lorenzo Koning](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2387405)

Well yes if you are talking 500+ pages then it won't be practical at all.

Here is another solution.

1. From your home page create a new template and on it add a link to the home page at the top or bottom of the page.
2. At the top of the body of the page add an info box giving some quick instructions on how to permission the page to one or more owners.
3. Label the page with something (e.g. **personal**).
4. Save the template.
5. On the home page under the content available to everyone, add a **Create from a template** macro and point it to the template created in step 1. Give the button a title and save.
6. Add a heading "Personal pages" and directly under the heading add a **Content by Label** macro, and add the label used in step 3.
7. Publish your home page.

++How it works:++

Everyone sees the home page. Anyone can click the button to create a new page off the home page. Inside the page is a set of instructions on how to permission the page that only one or more can edit or view the page.

When the page is published, the page is automatically added as a link to the home page. Anyone can click on the links, but only the person(s) who has/have permission can see the page, where they can edit or add or delete content to their hearts content.

Copy and Paste Multiple Table Cells
Asked by Natsuko_Kinoshita:

Hello,

I have a long table and want to add a column with the same dropdown.

It takes quite long time to copy and paste each dropdown macros to all the cells in the column.

I tried selecting 10 cells with dropdown, Ctrl + Shift + Copy, then go to the 11th row and Ctrl + Shift + V to paste.

It inserts entire 10 rows, pushing existing rows below.

Is there a way to copy \& paste multiple cells?

Elements Spreadsheet has just released a new version of our advanced table app for Confluence that includes drop-down lists. You can set the choices for a drop-down list and then apply that list to all the cells in a column, for example, and you can create multiple drop-down lists for each table.

How can I create a table into another child's page using data fields from another template.

How can I create a custom create meeting notes link?
Asked by Rob Horan:

Without getting into why this is the case - because I cannot change this - I am using a shared space that will have multiple meeting notes nodes. I would like to create a link that will create a new meeting note under a particular parent page. I can do this for custom templates but I cannot find a way to do this for meeting notes.

Side note, I do not have admin rights on the system I want to do this on.


Answers:
author: Shannon S
body: Hello Robert,

Thank you for contacting us about this.

Can you clarify - by nodes, do you mean parent pages? Thus, meetings are broken down into main categories and you want to organize the individual meeting notes this way instead of under one parent page. Is that correct?

If so, when you create a page from a template, it will automatically make the current page you are on the parent. There's not a way to force the parent page from a single link. Normally I would advise the [Create from Template Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/create-from-template-macro-317196995.html), but this doesn't allow you to choose a specific parent page. (There's a feature request for that here: [CONFSERVER-33098](https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-33098).)

You might be able to build that from a URL, as is suggested from this thread:

* [Can I trigger a template from a link?](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Can-I-trigger-a-template-from-a-link/qaq-p/134700)

You'll need to figure out the meeting template ID as well as the space and page ID that you want the parent to be, but I bet you could create a separate link for each meeting notes "node" that you require.

Let me know if you have any questions about that.

Regards,

Shannon

comments: author: Rob Horan
body: I wanted to trigger the template from a link but I don't see a way to find the meeting notes template ID. It is a blueprint, so it seems like the ID is not the same.

Also, side note, I don't have admin access. I was hoping the ID was constant.


author: Shannon S
body: Robert,

Each Blueprint is a set of templates. The templates will have static IDs within the site, but it changes from site to site. Your admin will need to help you to obtain the template ID for your site.

Otherwise, I recommend the Create from Template macro. You can place that macro on the desired parent page, and any pages created from that macro will be children of that page.

Regards,

Shannon


author: Rob Horan
body: The meeting notes template ID isn't a standard, built in ID? I understand custom templates will be different but this is a built in template. Jira master object IDs seem to be consistent from install to install.

Can you confirm that you have the fields **Columns** and **Date format** filled in per the chart above?

If so, could you show me what that looks like in your configuration?

The easiest way is by dragging the pages to reorder them.

See [Move, Copy, and Hide pages](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/move-copy-and-hide-pages-724764858.html) for instructions:
> **To move or reorder a page:**
>
> 1. Go to the space home and expand the sidebar to locate the page tree

> 2. Expand the branches to locate the page you want to move

> 3. Drag the page to a new position in the tree

In addition, you can do it from Space Settings: Choose **Space settings** from the sidebar \> **Content Tools** \> **Reorder Pages**.

If you want to toggle certain text in Confluence pages, you can do so using the [Expand Macro](https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/expand-macro-223222352.html).

You can include this in a page, or the Page Tree on the sidebar will already be able to be toggled and expanded.
