confluence: page properties report macro, method to total/count results?

Gavin Fowler

We're starting to use Atlassians "page properties" & "Page Properties Report" macros in our organisation and my user community is aksing whether it's possible to add a count / totals the results of the "page properties report" display/output (currently it lists all pages but you have to manually count how many results it returns).

Currently, I can see that adding totals is *not* an option within the macro editor, however I'm not sure if there's a change/feature request out there? Does anyone know whether there are alternative methods I can use to generate totals for the "Page Properties Report"? I wondered whether there's any macros/plugins that allow pages counts by page label (i.e. I caould insert the same page label used in the page properties macro).

Any insight/advice welcomed.

Many thanks!

Gavin.

Here is a user macro to count pages by label.

## @param Label:title=Label|type=string|required=true|desc=Enter a label to count.

#set( $labelManager = $action.LabelManager )
#set( $labRef = $labelManager.getLabel($paramLabel) )
#set( $pages = $labelManager.getCurrentContentForLabel( $labRef) )

$pages.size()

How can I count pages with a specific page property?

E.g. in this tutorial (https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Page+Properties+Macro) the total amount of pages with Current Status "In progress"?

Thanks for any advice/help.

Hi,
the macro works fine if I use it only one time on a page. But I get an error when used multiple time on the same page.

I work on Confluence 5.4.1

Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

This works great for me, right out of the box, in Confluence 5.10.8, including using it multiple times on the same page - I tested up to seven lables. Thanks Davin!

As an alternative you can use Pivot Table macro (Table Filter and Charts add-on) with Page Properties Report macro and count anything you want. Or you can just wrap Page Properties Report macro with Table Filter macro and set row numbering to see the count of pages.
