What is 1 contribution equal too?

[Matthew Jessop]

I was just wondering what a contribution is i.e. what you need to do to get a contribution

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

What do you mean by "contribution"?  Could you explain the context of the question a bit more?

[Matthew Jessop]

@Nic Brough -Adaptavist- On one of my teams there is a tally on the home page that has the number of contributions next to each member

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

So where is this tally coming from?

[Matthew Jessop]

It is a tally generated by confluence as /contributors

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

But what is a contrubution?  Please explain what the term means to your Confluence users?

[Matthew Jessop]

That's what I'm asking I don't know.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Bother.  I am sorry, I didn't read the / properly last time.

That's the contributors macro, which lists all users who have had a specific form of interaction with the page or pages defined in the macro settings.

It's quite flexible - you can choose the interaction and the page ranges, so you'll need to edit the page, or view source, to see what the page authors have set for it.

It could be set to report on one or many of; authors (people who create or edit a page), people who comment, label it, or sign up to watch it.  And you can set it to report on the current page, or a specific page, or a space, and cascade down through child pages.

So, we can't really answer the question, we'd need to see what the configuration of the macro is!

Thankyou :)
