Is this question for Confluence or Jira, because your terminology seems to be mixed?

Check out the ConfiForms add-on. You can do this, and so much more, with it. I don't work for them, we just use it in our environment and I know it can do what you are asking. There might be other add-on in the marketplace can can do this kind of thing as well, I am just not as familiar with them.

Please explain further what you are trying to do? I'm not quite understanding your question.

I created a page and put sync_index into it and did a search on sync_index and it came up in my system. A little known features that is always possible to fall back on is doing a refular expression search. Example below ... /.*sync_index.*/ This is currently the only way to do a preceding wildcard search in Confluence. If…

That functionality is under the ellipsis menu.

I cannot think of anything built in to update a page with a form. On that note it doesn't look to me like Frevvo could update a Confluence page. Rather it looks to me like that add-on is simply embedding their existing platform into Confluence. ConfiForms is a bit different in that it is built more on the Confluence model…

This seems to me to be the point of the left hand navigation. You would create your pages and order the accordingly in the left hand nav. When users click on the links in the navigation panel the content changes to that page.

You can use the section and column macros to get a three column layout without using the layout feature in the editor. See the below screenshot.

@Monique vdB I'll do April 27.

Dude you got Star Wars day! May the fourth be with you.

Oh ... just saw the new thread.

@Monique vdB I'll do May 4th (Star Wars Day) if it is still available.

If you are wanting to store metric data for reporting on, honestly I think Jira would be a better platform to use. However, if you do want to do this in Confluence you should look into the Confiforms add-on. It allows you to create forms within Confluence to store structured data that can then be reported on. We use it and…

The HTML Include macro will not work for this. That I know of there is no way to do this in Confluence Cloud. It is possible with the server version.

If you have the server version of Confluence you could add the below CSS to either the global stylesheet or space stylesheet (if you want to do it on a space by space basis) to limit the width. .plugin_pagetree_children_span a { max-width: 200px !important; white-space: normal !important; }

@Monique vdB Yep, that's what I was seeing. I just figured it was a permissions thing. Thanks.

@Monique vdB Apparently when I submitted this I didn't categorize it as a JIRA article. Doesn't look like I can fix that. Are y'all able to categorize this?

I would check to see that the site default home page didn't get changed. It is under Confluence Administration -> Further Configuration.

The easiest way to manage permissions in JIRA (and pretty much any system you'll ever manage) is via groups instead of person by person. So, in your case you would simply create a project and restrict access to that project down to specific groups. Make your group names clear as to what the group grants to the user. So,…

Under space admin you can mark a space as an archived space and it will cease to show up in search results. You could then create a new space and start moving over the useful documents.

Trashed pages showing up in the search index was a bug (CONFSERVER-40833) and has been rectified in 6.7.0.

This isn't pretty, but this how I've gotten around it for now. I'm open to better solutions. I added this to the system level announcement banner. <style type="text/css"> div[id^="workflow-transition-"] .aui-message.error p:nth-of-type(1) {white-space: pre;} </stye>

I love the theory of contexts unfortunately there is a major issue with context in that you cannot have two different issue types in the same project with different contexts. So, unfortunately I have found that I have had two create multiple similar custom fields simply because of this. At first I thought for sure I was…

Looks promising, but it doesn't look like it creates the diagram based on your tickets. Rather you upload a static image and then place hotspots over the image.

Yeah, I think they are just covering the bases in case you are already running a site on the default site or you deleted the default site. If you have the default site and you are not using it there is no reason you can't use that site.

If you have IIS on the system you should already have a default site setup in IS and the path for that default site is C:\inetpub\wwwroot. That's the default. If that default site was removed, then you will need to create a new site and point it to a physical path that will be the site's root folder. That can be wherever…

You will need to setup the Let's Encrypt stuff first to get the cert on your server and then you will be able to select it in the first screenshot. As for the second that is the physical path of the website on the server that will respond to port 80 and 443 requests. By default there is already a site in IIS that is bound…

Sure did. Honestly, I think it makes doing SSL with Confluence a bit easier anyway. I'm not fond of having to go to the command line to create java keystores and generating CSRs. If you are on Confluence 6.5 or above this web.config works. If you are below 6.5 there are some changes that need to be made due to a bug that…

I think you are going to have the best success if you set it up to reverse proxy through IIS. We are on Windows in our organization as well and we saw about 15%-20% performance boost when we switched where we terminate the SSL connection. I think IIS is just better about handling SSL than Tomcat is. Plus there is lots of…
