File List
Asked by Lisa Doris:

I am new to Confluence and I need to know how to create a File List that I can use as links on my pages. Can someone please point me in the right direction or give me the steps on how it can be done.

Thank you,

Welcome to the community!

If you want to list certain files/attachments within a page I recommend using the Attachments macro.

Here's a link on how to insert the macro: <https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-attachments-macro/>

Please let me know if this helped you or if you have any further questions.  
Kind regards,

Link previews in Slack and MS Teams for Confluence pages?
Asked by John Price:

When I paste links from our company Confluence Data Center site (uses SSO) into Microsoft Teams or Slack, there's no nice link preview ("unfurl" in Slack terms) with a page title and description. I spent a couple of hours figuring out how to add Facebook's commonly used "og" meta tags to the Velocity template, but the link previews don't work. I finally realized this is probably due to authentication: Teams/Slack cannot fetch the content without some credentials, either mine or something baked into Teams.   

Is there some clever way around this? BTW if it helps anyone, here's code I added to the Main Layout in Confluence. I did not find, frankly, any useful docs on how to reference specific properties and did a lot of trial and error. The URL bit isn't right but I'm stuck anyway ...   

<br />

```
 ## BEGIN LINK PREVIEW TAGS
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:url" content="$req.getServerName()" />
<meta property="og:title" content="$sitemeshPage.getProperty("title")" />
<meta property="og:description" content="$sitemeshPage.getProperty("title")" />
<meta property="og:image" content="$req.getServerName()$spaceManager.getLogoForGlobalcontext().getDownloadPath() " />
## END LINK PREVIEW TAGS??
```

How do I customize the From: field on Confluence email alerts?
Asked by jesse:

In the configuration menus for Jira, through "System" and then "General Configuration", there is a field/option titled "Email from" that lets you customize the "name" of the email sender on Jira alerts.

Where is the equivalent option for Confluence? The admin menus between the two products aren't at all in parity, and I've tried searching through the menus to find something.

Can Powerpoint slides be imported into Gliffy as customizable content?
Asked by Debbie Britton:

Hi Everyone, is anyone able to advise if it is possible to import slides from a Powerpoint presentation into Gliffy as customizable content? I am looking to pull content in that I can then edit in Gliffy within Confluence. Does anyone know if this can be done? At the moment we are using Server, but would also want it able to work in Data Centre. I asked a similar question for Draw.io but it appears it can't. Thanks


Answers:
author: Ryan Conom
body: Hi Debbie -

Thank you for reaching out. Currently, Gliffy does not have the capability to import a PowerPoint presentation as customizable.

What we can do, is add this as a feature request to our development team. That way your comment will be taken into consideration when feature enhancements are being reviewed for future versions of Gliffy.

We strive to implement all feature requests submitted by our customers, however, we are unable to provide a time-frame or guarantee as when/if a feature would become available.

We really appreciate customers like you! Comments and questions allows us to provided the enhancements that are needed to continually improve our product.

Have a wonderful day,

Ryan

comments: author: Debbie Britton
body: Thanks Ryan! I can imagine this feature would appeal to a lot of businesses so yes, if it could be added to the request list that would be great! Thanks


author: tmuehlhoff
body: I recently succeeded using the following procedure:  

1. Mark all desired elements in PowerPoint and copy them into clipboard  
2. Open Visio, paste clipboard and ungroup all elements (as they appear all grouped after paste)  
3. Save to regular Visio Drawing file (vsdx)  
4. Open draw.io page and "Import" "from Device" the Visio file.  
5. In draw.io "Export as" "VSDX (beta)"  
6. Create a new Gliffy drawing, import above VSDX file created by draw.io  

This works even if Gliffy doc says it can only import Visio files saved by Visio directly (Which didn't work!)

Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Possibly.

Check the space permissions to see who can use (see pages in) the space. You might need to add them to groups in there, or add them directly to the space permissions. And possibly add them to confluence-users to let them log in.

comments: author: Jason Pengel
body: Thank you Nic and everyone that responded,

The issue was related to the space permissions.


author: Hack Vogel
body: In addition to previously mentioned, check restricted pages.

Also, users must have access to the parent page in order to access a child page.


author: shruti gupta
body: Yes, First user should be in Confluence user group which is default group when user get access to confluence.

Then check Space permission for other access.

Retreive text from several pages without update
Asked by Carina Bj?rndahl:

Hi,   

I am trying to figure out if you can accomplish text inserts from other pages (like with the macros include page, include excerpts) without the connection to the source after you have retrieved the text from the source-pages. I don't want my page content to be updated when the source-page is updated.  

Is there a way to accomplish this?

Carina


Answers:
author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: No, there's no way to do that with anything more functional than "copy page" or simple "copy and paste".

comments: author: Carina Bj?rndahl
body: Thank you for confirming Nic.   

Copy page, and Copy+paste is how we do the assembly of this document today.

Since the sources are many, I wanted to research the possibility of a more efficient way to do it.

If the include page would have a parameter for version-consistency it would also solve the problem, but that is not a parameter of this macro unfortunately.

Thanks again.


author: Nic Brough -Adaptavist-
body: Going back to specific versions might be possible with apps - Scroll Versions is one that springs to mind immediately, although there may be others, and it might not do exactly what you need (I'm now imagining "include excerpt: \<space\>:page-name:\<version\>)

How to involve customer in Jira Sprint Planning and Backlog creation?
Asked by Muhammad Murad Iqbal:

Hi,

We are working closely with our client on a project in which we will be working on IBM software and developing some features. The client has asked for access to the project's Jira site to coordinate in adding backlog, sprint planning, assigning to team members, etc. We have the cloud hosted Jira.

You need to connect with your JIra Admin .They can provide access to the users for your instance .

Like in my case we need to drop mail to JIra admin or raise request with all proper justification as it envolve licence cost .

Once user get access ,provide suitable role for the event ( manage sprint etc )mentioned above in permission scheme.

Trello board permissions: Who can modify my board?
Asked by Margie Roginski:

Someone invited me to be a member of their board and I noticed that I was able to add cards to their board.

Where are the permissions that control this? I don't want someone to be able to modify my board in any way, either by adding comments or by adding cards or moving them around.

Under "..." for the board, I see "Commenting Permissions" and "Add/Remove Permissions". "Add/Remove Permissions" seems to be for adding and removing members of the board. Where are permissions for actually modifying the board?


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Margie Roginski](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2357649) If someone is a member of a board, they are able to do everything on that board.

You have the option of:

1) Adding someone as an observer (for boards in a Business Class team)

2) Having your board team viewable but without the "self-join" option enabled so team members can see a board but can't interact with it (you can optionally enable them to comment)

comments: author: Margie Roginski
body: Thanks for the info, Iain! Where is the "self-join" option that you mention?

New user, gold account billing and add on use
Asked by Philip Florio:

I'm thinking of signing up for the Gold account for the year, if I decide to cancel is there a prorated refund?

With the Gold membership would I have access to the calendar and Evernote add-on?

Thanks,

Phil


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Philip Florio](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2993944) There's no pro rata refund for cancellation of an annual payment (that's why there's a discount for annual payment). If you're unsure whether Gold will be valuable why not pay for a month then go annual to save money once you're sure it's what you're after.

You get access to 3 power ups per board. Calendar is provided by Trello, but other power ups may have additional subscription charges levied by the vendor of that power up.

I can't see any of my boards
Asked by Alison Green:

All my boards have disappeared in Firefox on my Mac.

It's not just that I can't see the boards - there's absolutely nothing on my screen at all when I click on the "Go to your Boards" button. It's just a blank screen. No menu bars, no navigation or filter buttons - nothing at all.

The URL that's blank for me is <https://trello.com/> - I can access other child pages such as the Trello contact page, but not the main URL and not my Boards.

Can anyone help? Thanks heaps

Is there a way to view the member count on a card?
Asked by Nik:

Hi,

I am using Trello only in very small groups (of 3 people) so far. At least when only 3 members are assigned to a card, each of their avatars is displayed, but not the total member count, as is the case for the members of the board.

Now I'm planning something bigger and it would be very helpful to see how many members are assigned to a card. Can someone tell me how this is displayed when there are many members (around 40)? I cant find any helpful infos/screenshots.

Thanks and cheers!

Nik


Answers:
author: Katrin Anger
body: [@Nik](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2993735)

I am just checking your command and tested it, and I got it to work.

I used a slight modification, but the basic idea is the same as yours:

```
when someone is added to a card, rename the card to "{cardname} | Signed Up: {cardmembercount}"
```

Can you test this and let me know whether the problem still exists for you?

P.S. You don't need a business account with Trello to get more Butler commands. With a Gold account you can use all the 5 command types and have a decent amount of operations available.


author: Mike
body: You could think about doing this with Butler, using the {cardmembercount} Variable: <https://help.trello.com/article/1157-variables>

On whatever schedule you like, Butler could write that data somewhere, like the end of the card title.

comments: author: Nik
body: Thanks for your reply!

Your suggestion doesn't seem to work for me, though. I wrote the following rule:

when someone is added to a card in list "Signup sheets", rename the card to "Signed up: {cardmembercount}"

But nothing happens when I add myself to the card.

Also, the count wouldnt update if someone would be removed from the list and since I don't have Business Class, I can only implement one rule with Butler.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Nik](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2993735) here is the same command in Trellinator, you would need to install updateMemberCountWhenAdded and updateMemberCountWhenRemoved:

comments: author: Nik
body: I sure will, but it will take months before I get there. Also, I am just planning how to best organise this group right now, so it would be good to know in advance how Trello handles it.

How to keep a card created from a task list connected?
Asked by Celso Marigo:

I?d created a card with a to-do list, and a member on our team will keep it to do. When a team member get a task, he converts it to a card.  

I want to keep them connected, the new card, with the task item, because, when the card task is complete, the progress bar on parent, could be incremented.

Is there a way to do it?

Thanks!


Answers:
author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Celso Marigo](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2992722) Okay so let me make sure I understand your current process correctly:

1) You create a card, and on that card you add a checklist

2) A member of your team accepts responsibility for one of the items on a checklist by converting that item to a card

3) You would like the completion of that card to be visible in the parent card

The Butler Bot used to have a "when an item is converted to a card" trigger, but that appears to be absent from the power up.

So using Butler you could do this instead by creating the command:

*when an item is added to checklist "Sub-tasks", convert the item to a linked card in list "New tasks"*

Now, instead of team members taking responsibility by converting an item to a card, they can add themselves as a member or drag the card to their list from the New tasks list.

You can then propagate the completion of this back to the parent by having a command like:

*when a card is archived, for each card linked in the attachments, check item "{triggercardlink}"*

You can also do the same thing with Trellinator, I wrote about this recently here:

<https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Trello-articles/Trello-Subtasks-with-Trellinator/ba-p/1020531>

comments: author: Celso Marigo
body: [@Iain Dooley](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/1416112) this is what I need, I dont know the trello API, so I first made this question to know if there?s a native way to od what I need.

I?ll take a better look in your suggestions, one of them should fit better what I need.

Thanks for advice!
Pricing for Business Class
Asked by Richard Anderson:

We were notified the free accounts are leaving and to upgrade our members is over 10 grand per year. This is crazy. Anything we can do?


Answers:
author: Blair at Atlassian
body: Trello Free will still live on! Here's few options I'd recommend Trello Free teams:

* [Close inactive boards](https://help.trello.com/article/777-closing-a-board): Perhaps there are some team boards that are open but no longer in use? I'd suggest looking at your team's current open boards and seeing if any are rarely being used. Closing any inactive team boards will make room for new ones, and they can always be reopened later if there is space available in the team.
* [Change a board's association to personal](https://help.trello.com/article/752-changing-the-team-to-which-a-board-belongs): There may be some boards that don't require collaboration with your entire team, such as a to-do list of a single team member. Changing any boards like that to Personal will ensure it doesn't count against your 10 board limit. All Trello users can still create and hold unlimited personal boards, now and forever!
* [Create an additional Trello team](https://help.trello.com/article/705-creating-a-new-team): There's no limit to the number of Trello teams that you can create, or be a member of. If your team is reaching the 10 board limit, and the previous recommendations don't work for you, you're welcome to create additional Trello teams and [move](https://help.trello.com/article/752-changing-the-team-to-which-a-board-belongs) boards to it or create new boards.


author: Iain Dooley
body: [@Richard Anderson](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2992464) free accounts aren't leaving, free teams are being limited to creating no more than 10 boards. Free teams with pre-existing boards will still retain access to all those boards for free and create up to 10 more prior to 1 May.

You can have as many personal boards with as many team members as you like on each board, and you can have as many teams as you like.
