New confluence experience - Is there a timeframe for header?

Helle Markmann

I have a space with a header containing a logo at the left and a space searchbar at the right.

I have used the included "header/footer" in the Look and feel (wiki markup).

In the old experience, sections work fine with columns and widths for that, but not in the new.

Also the header is not presented on the "home page" of the space.

Is there a time frame for when this might be solved?

Regards

Helle

Hi Helle,

Can you share what the customizations are that you have in the header and footer? We will only be supporting basic wiki markup and not macros, but it seems to me this is what you're using only, correct?

I also want to clarify, you have two issues:

You've set specific column widths and this is not working in the New Look.
You've set a header, and it only appears on the pages but not on the home page.

Is this correct?

Kind Regards,
Shannon

Hi Shannon

Thanks for ansawring!

I am (unfurtunally) using a macro in the markup. I am using the "Section" macro. I don't know other ways to control, where to put elements in the header. I also use the livesearch macro, but oh boy, I can't do without that.

Here' my markup:

{panel:bgColor=#50a08d}
{section}
{column}
[!YODA:Yoda Home^Yoda OFFICIAL white on turquoise.png|width=70,align=left!|Yoda Home]
{column}
{column:width=10%}
{livesearch:spaceKey=YODA|placeholder=Information find you will}
{column}
{section}
{panel}

and yes, there are two questions - sorry. That was the first one.

The header above, in the old exp. it shows on all my pages, also my space "home page". In the new experience, it doesn't.

Do you want me to make a different post on this?

I have some experiences with the "home page" in the new exp. but I wrote them as feedback, and I guess I should try to keep different subject down here :-)

Hi,

I have exactly the same problems, 1 and 2. I wanted to add a link to a parent space in the header due to the loss of sidebar customization. I have 2 links on the left side inside a DIV macro, left aligned. The div macro is in a column without fixed size or %, the other column with our logo has fixed size. Sometimes it works fine, the header is correctly displayed, very often, the logo is displayed below the space shortcut. I just displayed a page where it worked immediately then opened a new tab and I have the logo below the shortcut (refreshing the page has not effect). I tried with Firefox, Chrome and Edge. I can see sometimes the logo is first displayed below the shortcut then goes at its correct place quite immediately without any manual intervention (looks like response time issue).

Just for information, in my case I don't use the section/column code in the header settings as this header is valid for several spaces, I use an include macro: {include:KBCOMMON:KB-Banner|nopanel=true}

@Bruno Miretti @Helle Markmann

As far as I am aware, macros won't be supported, but I'm going to get more information on that. I'm also looking into the issue with the header/footer not appearing on the main page, and why column size isn't being set.

I'll update you as soon as I have more information!

Kind Regards,
Shannon

Hi Helle,

Please have a look at this bug report: CONFCLOUD-56826

I've verified on my site and effectively when you have a section/column in the page, the header has a correct display.

Hope this helps and please vote :-)

Thanks. We have switched to an onpremise solution, and are therefor off the new experience (at least for a while), so I can't verify on my space.

Welcome!
