Display count of Jira issues without suffix "issues" in confluence page

[Arvind Sinha]

I have a confluence page in which I want to fill count of issues based on my pre-defined Jira queries using Jira Issues Macro (via JQL). The returned value is always having a suffix “issues”. How to get only he number without the suffix?

My query is related to the Jira Macro page https://confluence.atlassian.com/doc/jira-issues-macro-139380.html

Hi @Arvind Sinha ,

If you insert the issue count option in a table cell, You can remove the word 'issues' with the help of the Table Transformer macro (the Table Filter and Charts for Confluence app).

Please find the detailed instructions in the answers to this question.

Hello @Natalie Paramonova _Stiltsoft_ ,

Thank you so much for this help. It works.

However, with this the clickable links with the numbers are also removed, so we can't go to the list of filtered jira issue by clicking the numbers. Is there any way to achieve that as well?

Hello @Arvind Sinha ,

You can apply the following query to preserve Jira filter links:

SELECT T1.'Date',
FORMATWIKI( "["+(T1.'Count'->split(" issues")->0::number) +"|" +
T1.'Count'->tfView->match("href=([^ >]*)")->1->slice(1, -1)
+ "]"
) AS 'Count'
FROM T*

Hi Natalie @Stiltsoft Support  ..

Your code of FORMATWIKI logic works wonder and im able to utilise it .. just a little ask ..

This code of yours works fine in general except one scenario .. i.e.,

whenever, there is issue count as '1' then it throws/returns 'NaN' ... tried my luck of tweaking the code but nothing so far .. 

Please help on this .. 

To conclude, it works wonder for all the numbers BUT, when the count is '1' .. it returns 'NaN' ..

Hi @Arvind Sinha , 

Welcome to the Atlassian Community. If you are referring to "issues" which is displaying the issue count on a Confluence page, "100 issues", then it is the default one and it cannot be removed.

Thanks,
