Drop Down List

[Kimberly Giere]

I viewed a question/answer on how to customize colors on drop down list items; however, the answer mentioned "Power Up Settings" that I can't seem to find. I am running Confluence 6.1.1.  Could someone give me explicit directions on where to find it or if it is not available for the version I am using. 

I am using the drop down on a custom page template.  I would like to have specific list items appear in green, blue, or red when the  page is published.

Thanks for any info.

Hi Kimberly,

Our Easy Dropdown Menu app could be a solution for your requirement. You can find the Easy Dropdown app on the marketplace.

An other solution is to develop an user macro. There are examples here in the community.

Thank you. I will check out both.  The macro solution will probably work well for us.

Thanks Stephan @EPS Software Engineering AG for your response, 

User macro option provided in this community thread , Is that applicable for only server version or that can be applied to cloud version as well?

Hi @Nimesh Modi,

According to this community thread user macros are not supported for customers on the Confluence Cloud.

Hello @Kimberly Giere

You can have a look at our Handy Macros for Confluence.

It has many useful macros one of each is Handy Status. It is great for quick creation of sets with predefined options. The color is also customizable here.

Once Handy Status is inserted on a page, its value can be changed even in the page view mode so your work becomes more time-efficient.

Not quite sure what you mean when you say "I am using the drop down on a custom page template." There is nothing that I know of natively in Confluence called a "drop down". Is this by chance part of a third-party add-on? A screenshot would be helpful. :)

[Jonathan Smith]

Yes, a screenshot would be lovely. When I hear "power up" I hear Trello.
