Edit ‘Include Page’ Macro trouble

Question

During editing a global template Edit ‘Include Page’ Macro constantly provides an error : Unable to render {include} The included page could not be found, however page from a different space is successfully added, the space permissions are exactly the same as the second one, i am also able to get to this page directly.

Dear Diego,

Here are the steps to reproduce:

* Create a page with a single  "excerpt feature"
* Publish it
* Start creating a template 
* Insert a "excerpt include" with a link to point 1.
*  That's where i get an error : Unable to render {include}

Thx

Pavel

Hello @Pavel_Piguylevski !

I am not sure if I fully understand the current situation. Please allow me to ask a few questions:

* Are you trying to include the “Include Page Macro” inside a Page Template when the issue happens?
* Are you trying to use the “Include Page Macro” when editing a page created with a template?
* Are you still able to use the “Include Page Macro” in newly created pages?
* What happens if you try to add another page while following the procedure that leads to the behavior you described?
* Could you describe step by step what was done to achieve the described behavior?

I tried to replicate what I understood from the issue by doing the following:

* Create two new pages
* Publish them
* In one of the, use the “Include Page Macro” pointing to the other page
* Rename the page included within the macro

The final result was that Confluence automatically updated the macro so it would display the renamed page correctly.

Looking forward to your reply!
