Is there any way to format the content displayed by the "Children Display" Macro?
I want to put the content into a table or something like a box, change background and font colour, etc.
Maybe any of you have experiences. Thank you!
Hello @David Gfrerer ,
You cannot directly change the "Children Display" Macro being part of the Confluence platform (you could try to get it from the source jars , but it should NOT be done, you should not change the source code of the platform).
What you can do< I suppose:
Hallo @Andrii Maliuta
Thanks for your quick response, I basically got you.
What do you mean by source jars? Can I then get the source code of the macro just to copy it and use it in my own macro so I just have to change the formatting part?

Hi @Andrii Maliuta As an alternative solution, you can try to use Content formatting macros for Confluence.
This plugin allows you to customise some things by putting the children display macro inside div macro and then using the CSS stylesheet macro to change colours and etc.
But I don't know if it will match your use case, and it requires some CSS knowledge. So if you need any help, please let me know (this app is developed by my team).
