Cannot edit pages (infinite loading)

Hello,

The second day we cannot edit confluence (cloud) pages. But we did it before. I have admin permission, my colleagues too. There is no restriction for pages.

When I click on Edit button, the loading is started and it goes forever:

2019-02-22 12_01_36-Изменить - Запрашиваемые документы - REON - Confluence.png

The other functions are working fine btw.

Any idea how to fix this?

Thank you in advance!

Hi, you could use this Strategy:

  • create a sleek global template that lets you define tasks with one default labels "ptasks" as pages and then give them any extra lable you want (plus you could use any other categorizing/summary functions like page properties or so on) -> this will not be backwards compatible for your existing structure

Could you clarify what you mean with "create a sleek global template"?

yes, instead of including tasks into the body text of a page you could create a task by using a subpage that is based on simple template, lets name it "ptask". This allows you to have lables applied to that task, actually any task that is created that way...

its another approch to not think about the task as an "inline" text element rather than a little instance of the ptaskt template.

OK, I understand.

Thanks for the suggestion, but this will not work for my use case because a lot of people create tasks in different pages and the big advantage is indeed that these are "inline" (better, in context).

Most of these people will not understand that they have to change page for creating the task.

@Rosario De Domenico I'm in same situation and wondering if Atlassian has any solution. Did you get any update so far?

No, I got no feedback or workaround or solution. :(

I'd love to see a resolution for this from Atlassian. Tasks that can be labelled would be very much more useful for using confluence as a collaboration platform.

Same here. Labels for tasks would be tremendously helpful, dear folks at Atlassian!

An ugly workaround would be to create a fake user with the desired label as name. That way you can filter tasks that are assigned to that user/label. But I admit that this is pretty ugly.

Please Atlassian, reconsider adding labels to tasks

I agree this would greatly improve task management in Confluence. This suggestion can be voted here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-36419

Task Report has the capability to filter on Labels, however, there appears no capability to place a label on a Confluence Task.
