Well, the first question I have would be what does the Bloomberg Excel add-in do?

The Excel is somewhat limited in what it can do. It is meant mainly to show stock Excel content and really only basic features at that. It will not be able to use the Bloomberg excel add-in.

Does it have to be while "editing" the page? You could use something like the ConfiForms addon to create a form that allows you to fill in fields and then display the entries as a table.

Here is a user macro I created a while ago for this. Macro Body Processing: Rendered Template: ## Developed by: Davin Studer## Date created: 04/30/2014 ## @param Tip:title=Tool Tip|type=string|required=true|desc=What will be displayed when the cursor hovers over this area? #set( $id =…

You do indeed need a license from Service Rocket, but the license is free.

The downside of this approach is it breaks any template variables you may have.

I have copied templates that way before? Make sure you cursor is in the body of the editor before hitting ctrl+a. Or make sure the cursor is at the top and then hit ctrl+shift+end. Both will select everything in the body. Then copy paste should work.

There are a few things you could do. You could use an html macro and embed some css into you page to override the default column size. Another option would be to use the Content Formatting Macros by Adaptavist and manually build out your table using the table, tr, and td macros. Then you can put your styling directly on…

Didn't realize that you want it only an a specific page. Same answer just without editing the template. I would create a user macro to do this. It would look something like this. ## @noparams<form class="aui"> <button id="custom-splitter-toggle" class="aui-button">Toggle Sidebar</button></form><script…

You can certainly do that. All you need to do it edit the page template and put a button somewhere on the page that will fire off some javascript to programatically click the one in your header. Now, from a usability standpoint I think it is a better idea just to educate the users rather than duplicate functionality on the…

There is no way to have the left nav sort Z-A for certain sections ... only A-Z. You would need to order them manually every time you create a new one.

If you are using the "Default" theme at the bottom of the left nav there is a button called "Space Tools". Click on it and select "Reorder Pages". This gives you a tree view that will let you drag and drop to re-order the pages. If you are using the "Documentation" theme there shoudl be a "Browse" button in the top nav.…

Here is a user macro that I have created for this. Just put it on a page and it should give you a report of all of the macros and user macros that are being used in your instance. This requires at least Confluence 5.5 as the MacroBrowserManager.getMacroSummaries() method was added in 5.5. ## Developed by: Davin Studer##…

What is the use case for this?

Another option would be to use the WebDAV add-on(comes pre-installed). You could map Confluence as a drive and then use a batch/shell/powersehell script to change them.

If you want to move the whole space you would need to create a new page that sits outside the hierarchy of your current page tree and then set it to be the space home page. Then simply move the now old parent page to your new space. It will move all the child pages with it.

I have edited the above user macro for your issues. The corner should not be rounded anymore. Also, when rendered they should show next to each other (inline). In the editor they won't be on the same line, but they should render on the same line when viewing the page.

It should work just fine with multiple create from template button ... although I have not tried it. You just need to create a user macro (Confluence Admin -> User Macros) and use the above code. Then put the user macro on the page, fill in the macro parameters, and put your create from template macro inside it. See the…

You could create a user macro to wrap your "create from template" button to override the styles on it. Macro Body Processing: Rendered Template: ## Developed by: Davin Studer## Date created: 07/15/2015## @param Image:title=Image URL|type=string|required=true|desc=The URL to the image.## @param Width:title=Image…

Simply typing does not extend the timeout. The timeout is based on round trips to the server, while you are typing the timeout is not being reset. One thing that you could do it occasionally hit preview. That will reset the timeout and will also save a draft version as well. It would be cool though if Atlassian set up the…

Could you add a screenshot to show the issue?

If you truly need to get rid of them you could put this in the global or space stylesheet. Global stylesheet location: confluence admin -> look and feel -> stylesheet Space stylesheet location: space admin -> stylesheet .templateparameter { display: none; }

The parenthetical version of the field name is only there during the page creation wizard. You will not see them when the page is created. They are there as helper text so you know what should be put into the input box. What is the use case for you wanting to get rid of them?

If you want to use the page properties macro for this then you need to create a page for each issue rather than put them all on one page. On each issue page you would have the key value pairs associated with that issue. You would also give each issue page a label. Then in your report macro you would set the properties of…

If you look at the screen shots above the keys are in either a header row or column. You can see this visually based on the color difference. When you edit a table there are two buttons in the edit bar to toggle the column or row as a header. That is why both of my screenshots work. There is one header that contains the…

That is not how the page properties macro works. It expects to find key/value pairs in it. Like this ... image2015-4-9 13:29:16.png or this image2015-4-9 13:30:2.png It is meant to convey properties about that page alone which are then aggregated on the report macro.

Please explain further what your requirements are. The question above is fairly vague.

You could probably use the josn-rpc api to add the watch. Another option would be to use the addpagenotificationaction.ajax page and POST the id of the real page ... this is how Confluence adds the watch itself. The form data to post is pageId(page id of the real page) and it looks like it also passes atl_token (the user's…

I don't think that has what he is looking for.

In our environment we have a non-production copy that we refresh occasionally. We then upgrade that prior to upgrading the procution version and test that plugins work and everything like that. We usually give that a week or so to find any issues. We also have our two enviroments running in virtual machines so that we can…
