Jira Ticket Links Break While Editing Confluence Table

[Md_ Abdul Alim]

Description:

When editing a Confluence page containing a table with Jira ticket links, the editor behaves inconsistently.

Issue:

• While the page is in Edit mode, the entire table continuously flickers/blinks.
• Some Jira ticket references are displayed as proper smart links, while others are unexpectedly converted into plain text URLs.
• During this state, editing the table becomes very difficult because the content keeps refreshing and the cursor loses focus.
• As a result, adding or modifying text inside the table cells is frustrating and unreliable.

Expected Behavior:

• All Jira ticket references should render consistently as smart links.
• The table should remain stable without blinking or refreshing during editing.
• Users should be able to edit table cells without interruptions or cursor jumps.

Actual Behavior:

• The table continuously blinks while editing.
• Jira links randomly switch between smart links and plain text.
• Editing text inside the affected cells is difficult due to the unstable editor.

• Screenshot demonstrating the issue before and during editing.
