Center-justified table is now left-justified

Emmanuel Jose

Hello Atlassian,

We have some knowledge base articles with full-width settings, but they contain tables set to a wide setting (the selection handles were adjusted to a width in between fixed-width and full-width). In edit mode, the tables are centered. In published mode, the tables used to be centered on the page.

This morning (December 10, 2024), the tables are now all left-justified, with no edits to adjust the table justification. The tables were previously centered on articles before this date.

The left-justified tables are now off center from centered text (that aren't in the tables) in the same article.

Is there a way to revert the tables back to center justification (this is how they appear in edit mode)?

Thank you.

Update: The tables are all currently set to center-align when editing the table macro, but they are left-justified in published mode. The current workaround is to make the page fixed-width to center all tables. The question remains, if tables are set to center-align, why doesn't published mode reflect that?

Hi @Emmanuel Jose I took a quick look at Atlassian's Jira site and ran across CONFCLOUD-78990 is it possible the pages in question were created with the legacy editor and converted to the new editor?

Also, for testing, if you create a new table on that page, do you experience the same behavior?

Does creating a new page for testing have the same behavior? If not, and it's that ticket, I would recommend voting for and watching that ticket for further updates. 

You can always request assistance from support to get further clarification.

Hope that helps.
