No, blogs are not pages - they are a specific content type in Confluence. This has been raised before as an issue: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-37260

You can definitely do a lot with the standard "Excerpt Include" - the one limitation is that its only good for displaying content.

Unless you want to develop your own macros as an add-on, the next best option might be to script the update using the Confluence Command Line Interface (CLI) add-on https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/org.swift.confluence.cli/cloud/overview - its has a "modifyPage" command. BTW the capabilities to develop…

Out of the box, generating the reminder email isn't possible. However, you could try a couple of different approaches to track documents for review: * Use labels - e.g. "review-march-2018" * Use tasks and the task report - you would need to define a specific label and/or restrict to a specific space or set of spaces to…

@Peter Plesnicar do you mean something that would create a calendar on a page in table (a bit like those Microsoft templates you can use to create calendars) or are you thinking of something else?

Copying a page will duplicate all of the original page's attachments. Otherwise the safer way to do this is to download the file and attach, not copy and paste (as counter intuitively this may not actually paste the actual image). Another way to do this could be to create a specific page to store all your images, and then…

Are you seeing this where the image should be or something different? Screenshot 2016-08-15 at 11.33.38.png There have some issues with pasting images seen over the years that be the route cause. However, this happens immediately - as soon as your save the page and view it again.

You can export and import between Confluence Cloud instances, but I'm not aware of anything you can configure or any macros that will let you connect instances together so they dynamically "populate". However, the iframe macro could be used to display content from the other instance and vice versa. Anything more…

Yes, that screenshot is the sidebar you should see when ever you are browsing a space. However, if you are seeing the dashboard sidebar with "Discover, My Work, My spaces" while browsing the pages in a specific space then I would raise a support ticket. I'm not aware of any configuration options in Confluence Cloud that…

You are describing the global dashboard (the default home page for your entire Confluence site) - this isn't within any one space - see https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/the-dashboard-724764714.html It is possible to make a space your default site home page - perhaps someone has changed this setting? (This is an…

Rather than sending them a link to the actual file, why not send them a link to the (pre)view instead?

Can you post some screenshots of what you are seeing?

I would also recommend separating collaboration and information referenced internally by a department or function from content shared across the whole business. One immediate benefit is from a search perspective, but also the permissions will be easier to manage. You might also want to break up the company space into…

See https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloud/atlassian-cloud-storage-policy-873871366.html

On Confluence Cloud you could use page permissions to restrict editing of the page, however that would effectively 'checkout' everything in the page and all the files attached to it - see https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/page-restrictions-724764891.html You would also still need to look at using a social workflow…

Have you tried the Expando add-on? https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.k15t.confluence.k15t-expando/server/overview

Take a look at how Atlassian themselves do this: https://confluence.atlassian.com/spacedirectory/view.action (If you click on "Confluence" under the CATEGORIES in the left-hand panel, you can see that they have a space per major version of Confluence). I would recommend something like the Copy Space for Confluence as an…

Unless you can find an existing add-on that can do this, after trying to create a CQL query to do this it may be a case of extracting a list of all pages and then filtering out those that don't have labels.

Have you checked any of the add-ons in the marketplace for label management? https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?hosting=server&product=confluence&query=labels Alternatively, you could try https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/org.swift.confluence.cli/server/overview

Have you looked at Brikit's Pinboards add-on as a way to surface popular content? https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/com.brikit.pinboards/server/overview

Page Properties is a good start. Have you looked at Atlas CRM? https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/nl.avisi.confluence.plugins.atlas-crm/cloud/overview If you need something more sophisticated than what Page Properties offers but not as complex as something like Atlas CRM, you can create add-ons that allow you to…

There is an iframe macro, but I don't believe Trello supports being embedded using this approach for security reasons. This isn't specific to Confluence - iframes are a method for embedding one web page inside another. For the moment you will need to wait for Atlassian or a 3rd-party developer to create this integration…

Probably a good idea - would reduce the number of duplicates!

Then just complete the issue in JIRA as best you can Leave it to Atlassian to fix up or assign anything else you aren't sure about.

If you aren't sure about reporting a bug, I would suggest raising a support ticket instead. Just describe the bug and ask support to investigate if its a known issue or something new. If its a new bug, they can create the issue for you in JIRA.

BTW you can limit who can restrict pages through the Space Permissions.

In Confluence Cloud, the "super user" System Administrator global permission is only available to Atlassian staff who administer your Confluence site. The highest level a user can be granted is Confluence Administrator, which doesn't do quite the same thing.

Yes, this is possible. The default configuration is that Confluence adds the confluence-users group to new spaces. Your default groups are managed through the Default Space Permissions in Confluence administration. You need to create a new group for your main users and use that instead of confluence-users in your space…

No, not to my knowledge - this isn't a standard feature in Confluence.

Milo's suggestion will work to an extent, but as soon as you open one of those policy pages the sidebar will display the page hierarchy. However, you can disable the display of either page tree or child pages navigation (via "Configure Side" in the bottom-left of the screen). You may then either need to manually create…
