Table merge cells option not available

[matt.smith]

I am trying to merge the cells on a table. There seems to have been a recent change because I can now see cell formatting options, but nothing that allows me to merge cells.

Hi @matt_smith

I don't believe there was a recent change, and I'm able to see the merge cells option in Confluence:

If you're able to, can you post a screenshot of the table and the options you're seeing?  I believe Confluence will sometimes prevent you from merging if there are certain types of content in one or more of the cells you're trying to merge.

@Chris Rogers @matt_smith  I am unable to see any cell options at all.

This is all I see.

Also having this issue today. No ability to merge cells. I only have the text box toolbar, not the table toolbar upon highlight, as I normally do. Reproducible across all cells in table and more than one page.

Hi @Ashley Huston

That's really odd; I retried this today in multiple browsers (Edge, Firefox, and Chrome) and all worked without issue.  Can you try this in incognito mode?

Failing that, I think it's worth reaching out to Atlassian Support and reporting it, as it seems a few people are running into this problem.

Hi @matt_smith

Welcome to Atlassian community!!

From the problem summary, I understand that the merge cells option is not available in the tables.

It looks like the issue is due to the bug https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-83670.

However, since you are already on the premium plan, we suggest you to work with your admin and raise a support request at support.atlassian.com so that we can access the site,replicate the issue and troubleshoot further.

Hope this helps!
