sequence order for space

[Anderson Hsu]

Dear all, 

Why after add @ symbol in space title, the sequence in space directory and space list is different? 

space list

Space directory

They're not different.  You're showing us the space directory and the list of recently worked on.  One of them is sorted alphabetically, the other by the time of the last edit.

[Anderson Hsu]

Would it be possible to manually adjust their sequence to the same? Thanks a lot.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Um, the point of one of them is that the order is most recent, not alphabetic.

Hi Nic, 

Is there other macro which can display space list like space directory sequence? Thanks a lot.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Yep, there's the "space list" macro.  But be aware that it is non-performant when you have a lot of spaces and Atlassian have deprecated it because of that, and intend to bin it in a future release.

You've tagged this question with "server" though, which means you have access to "user macros", which effectively means you can write your own.  This is a good example, even though it's over a decade old - https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DISC/Spaces+listed+by+label+with+Children it has the right principles in it, and might even still work as it is defined there (you can guess that I've not tried it recently)

(User macros not existing on Cloud is in my top three reasons not to move to Cloud like Atlassian wants us all to.   I can happily tell Jira and Bitbucket users to go to Cloud in the vast majority of cases, but not Confluence users...)
