Checking action item

[To Dong Luu]

When creating an action item and checking it, I want one rule: If the action item has no link issue, then the checkbox will not be checked. Can you help me?

While it does look like it is pointing to a specific version that link is generated dynamically each time you load the page. If you look at the storage format it should look something like this ...

<ac:link>
	<ri:attachment ri:filename="Attachment.pdf">
		<ri:page ri:content-title="Other Page"/>
	</ri:attachment>
	<ac:plain-text-link-body><![CDATA[Stuff]]></ac:plain-text-link-body>
</ac:link>

As you can see the storage format doesn't point to a specific version. When the page renders it will create the url on the fly and point it to the latest version. If you update the attachment you should see the url change. If it is not changing then probably the link is not set up correctly in the storage format and is pointed directly to a specific URL like this ...

<a href="http://wiki/download/attachments/???/Attachment.pdf?version=3&amp;modificationDate=1376425249443&amp;api=v2">Stuff</a>

This would happen if you select "Web link" when you are creating the link. But if you use "Search" instead then it should be created correctly.

I have tested this out and it is truly linking to old versions of the document and not the newest version. I 'd like to provide a link that always goes to the newest version and not to that snapshot in time version.

The features that made Confluence a nice tool are gone in the Cloud version! The Cloud version is not useful to me so I will not use it and I would highly recommend everyone to double check before moving to it.
