Andy Gladstone Community Champion

@Kristin Lyons we experienced a similar issue when we went fully remote early in the pandemic. We needed the social interaction, but for some it was too much. We instituted a soft rule of short banter to start meetings and general banter and socializing at the end. We also let everyone know that the moment the content…

@Christine P. Dela Rosa wow. I feel a lot less insignificant now. Thanks for sharing. I guess you can lead a horse to a book, but can't make them read!

@Bernice Garritson welcome to Confluence! Are you referring to a lost of users on your site with their details? If so, Administrators who have access to User management can export .csv files with that data. let me know if you need guidance assistance!

Well then @Addie Hutchins! This is a life changing moment for you. Take a deep breath and survey your surroundings - you'll want to remember this in the years to come! Atlassian University has some great free (and paid) resources. I highly recommend you take the Confluence Fundamentals course, which is free, recently…

@Addie Hutchins welcome to Confluence! There is no native TABS macro in Confluence. It is available as an add-on in the marketplace. You can search https://marketplace.atlassian.com/ for a macro that suits your needs. The closest that a native macro comes to Tabs is the expand macro, which allows nesting of text inside of…

Another great read @Jacob Wisner. I read the blog post at the time it was released, but re-read it again after coming across your summary today, and appreciated it more. 

Sharing a failure here. We tried to launch a quasi-book club at my company. We invested in a number of business skills development books and set up a physical library in our HQ. I agonized over the best books for the initial launch - and made sure to buy two of each, since I assumed people would want to buddy up and tag…

Spontaneous snack days. We have a ritual of monthly company lunches - where we bring in a different variety lunch each month and employees from across each of our worksites can enjoy a lunch together. No team boundaries, no time boundaries. Every once in a while we'll provide a spontaneous snack. Pre-pandemic, I used to…

I can remember it like yesterday. It was a Friday night, I was 21 and in my first year of marriage. The anxiety was building throughout the autumn and into winter, Christmas, New Year's Eve. All anyone was talking about on the radio (remember when we used to listen to them for actual news - before social media) was the Y2K…

Thanks for sharing @Gonchik Tsymzhitov 

OMG. HUUUUUUUGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEE NUMBERS.

@Shiv Sharma I have been doing some research on this, but it does not appear that this action is allowed in Confluence. This makes sense as deleting multiple spaces at a time could potentially tank an entire site. There is a good amount of effort required to delete even a single space - to prevent inadvertent deletions. My…

@Christine Toy in addition to @Bill Bailey's comment, are you adding data to an existing table or creating new tables? I am using tables in my instance daily. There are some tables that are 10-15 rows, and those all load super quick. But I have one with over 500 rows (it replaced an Excel file that gets built with new data…

Welcome to Confluence @franciscofilho! This is a life changing moment for you. Take a deep breath and survey your surroundings - you'll want to remember this in the years to come! Atlassian University has some great free (and paid) resources. I highly recommend you take the Confluence Fundamentals course, which is free,…

@Irvin Mesen Castillo there are some great courses on Atlassian products available at Atlassian University. There are free and paid tracks and curriculums. https://www.atlassian.com/university What specific topics are you looking for? I'd love to help you find the training you need for product knowledge and certification. 

@Jimmy Seddon thanks for the check-in! 2022 Goals Update * Still on track with Participation.* Took the deep dive and joined as an Atlassian Community Leader * Have been focusing on delegating for elevating - and not just doing things myself. * Cycling Goals* Already have 3 indoor rides under my belt (believe me, my belt…

@[deleted] welcome to Confluence! The recently updated macro will only show activity related to updates in pages, not activities such as likes or watches. I do not believe there is a macro that will display any specific user's like activity. May I ask why you are interested in tracking this sort of activity? Perhaps there…

@Andrew DeBell done! I will not rehash all of my comments from the survey here, but will state that it is very basic in nature. Enough to give a new user a familiarity with the platform and navigate different screens, but would need a 102/201 course to go with it to provide more useful training for someone expected to work…

Congratulations to all of the selfless heroes of the Atlassian Community for the recognition of their contributions! Some mornings I wake up, scroll through my feed and see so many of the names mentioned here already off and to the races helping out community members! Keep up the great work. @Monique vdB thanks for giving…

@Erica Desentz Welcome to Confluence! Please post any questions or insights you have here and the Community will help you along your learning path and growth with the platform!

@Christine P. Dela Rosa I agree with your previous comment on our Avengers string. The pivotal moment (IMHO) was when Tony allows Peter Parker to remain on the spaceship and anoints him as an Avenger in Infinity War. From that point forward the entire team is open and honest with each other - on Earth and on Titan. Where…

OOOOHHHH @Carlos Garcia Navarro you took mine! Although I was going to point out how dysfunctional the team was (Tony and Bruce with Ultron, ultimately leading to Thanos, etc.) and how we can learn from their mistakes by being more transparent. If only they had used Confluence to document everything, the rest of the team…

@Dwight Wyatt Welcome to Confluence! There is currently no way to watch a space and opt-out of email notifications. By default watching will send email and create an alert in Confluence. The parameters for emails and notifications can be found here: Confluence Cloud Watch Space 

From 2004-2011 I coached a local Junior High School Hockey Team. These were boys in 6th to 8th grade, 12-14 years old, and an age group that is challenging to manage on a single team. The physical, emotional and mental development of a 12 year old when compared to a 14 year old is as different as night and day. I had to…

@alexander gogun - @Dirk Ronsmans has hit the nail on the head! Follow that link - it's the yellow brick road!

@Meg Bailey thanks again! I really enjoyed the new layout and content, and have shared the guide around inside and outside the community multiple times! I am going re-purpose some of our internal Confluence how-to's and getting started content with content straight from the updated guide!

I see what you did there @Brittany Joiner - ending the competition on Taco Tuesday!

@Brittany Joiner thanks for the TL;DR post! I only recently started using Trello and following Trello community posts, and this is a great opportunity to accelerate my learning curve.

@Valeria Ivanova welcome to Confluence Cloud! Yes, I believe that you have already answered your own question. The Data Center and Server views of many of the Administrative Tools in Confluence are different. Additionally, the options in each differ as well. 

@DavidM have your users checked their Spam folders? If you are on Office365 I noticed that over the past few days Microsoft has tightened some of their controls and have found emails that were previously not going to quarantine stuck there. You may want to check that as well.
