Confluence page bug when using a table in it

Question

Hello.

I have some bug in Confluence pages that have a table. When I try to edit some table, it starts blinking and I can’t do anything: I can’t add a macro (neither the date macro through // nor any other macro), and I also can’t edit the table in any way (for example, delete a table row, paint a row/column, etc.).

Clearing cookies and cache does not solve my problem.

Can you please help me and explain how I can fix this bug?

Thank you!

Hi @olga.filipovich welcome to the community!  I found an old issue on Atlassian's Jira page that looks like this issue: CONFCLOUD-70575

It was closed due to lack of interest.

I'm wondering if it has to do with the new vs old editor.  Or different browsers.  Is it just you that gets the issue, or can someone else get the same thing when they try to edit the page.  Could it be the browser?  Have you tried Chrome vs Edge?

It would probably be worth contacting support (support.atlassian.com/contact) and get their feedback.  Certainly mention the above ticket.

Hope that helps.
