Page tree in the sidebar has dissapeared

Björn Bergqvist

In our spaces that used to have page tree view in the sidebard to the left, those has dissapeared. I have searched the forum and tried the suggestions with enabling plugins etc, but none of those suggestions match. We use confluence 4.3.2 and I have the Documenation theme on these spaces, and I have the page tree settings ticked under customize settings. There is also childpages connected to the space so this shouldnt be the problem.

Adding the macro page tree works, but this puts the page tree on the pages, not in the sidebar as we want.

I would appreciate any help to solve this issue

The problem was solved by enabling the Velocity helper plugin within the Documentation theme

Hi Thomas

I have, if I flip it more ill brake it The side bar is there, but its empty, no content at all.

Cheers for the check though

Thomas Schlegel

ah, ok, you did not mention that the empty side bar is there. Are there any error messages in the log file ?

Björn Bergqvist

We have checked the logs, and there is no errors in the log file when I access those spaces

Hello Bjorn,

From my understanding of it, I believe you need to Rebuild the Ancestor table to get the sidebar showing content again. Not sure if you tried that already, if not can you please give it a try and let us know the results?

Cheers.

Hi Alyson

I have now tried to rebuild the ancestor table with the button, but unfortunately it does not help, I still have empty side bars.

Any other clue?

Hello Björn,

I have read through this answer and a point missing is a Full Reindex From Scratch.

Hope this helps you.

Hi Guilherme

Any of them could relate to this

Hi, unfortunately none of these worked either. However, my colleague found something that helped https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFKB/Browser+Title+Shows+$docThemeHelper+Instead+of+The+Page+Title it seemed to be the Velocity helper plugin that was disabled in the Documentation theme. When we checked 11/12 were enabled and the Velocity thing was not
