Blog Post Macro - restrict authors

Erin Brusnahan May 31, 2016

I'm trying to use the Blog Post Macro. 

The documentation from Atlassian states "To include content from one user, but exclude from another user: jsmith,!jbrown". However, the field will only accept full usernames – if I enter "jsmith" I am given the option to select "James Smith". Further, the field clears all content that is not a full username, so once I have neglected to select "James Smith" and the field has lost focus, it's cleared. This also applies to attempting to add the exclamation point – neither "!jbrown" nor selecting "James Brown" and adding an exclamation point before it work. 

Is there another way to exclude content from a user?

An easy work around is using the option Restrict to these Labels, and only blogs that have a particular label will load in the feed.

A good workaround if I wanted to have users in our company maintain separate labels based on author. I'd really just like the feature to work as described.
