Content Formatting Macros

Nice stuff! Thanks for providing this. Excellent documentation and looks good too! It is good you bundled all of these in a single plugin - that makes it easier to install.

So what does the {xyzzy} macro do?

I cant seem to find the "table" macro documented anywhere. and it doesnt seem to work in my confluence install. I tried putting the following -

{table:width=100%}{tr}{td}whatever{td}{tr}{table} 

and it doesnt seem to wkr

I've just installed version 1.6.1 of this plugin, and the nice table of lozenges that I had set up have been completely messed up, with lots of errors like "Error formatting macro: lozenge: java.lang.NullPointerException"

I think it's an issue with how i'm using it as, a new empty lozenge works OK, but this doesn't:

{lozenge:link=SALES:Home|icon=Sales & Marketing|color=purple|arrow=none}

If i use the header command (h1. t/m h5.) in conjunction with the Center macro (Content formating macro's) everythings goes allright when i view the page or print it. But when i convert the page to an adobe acrobat format, i get an error, (see Oops -an error has occured_bestanden) When i only use header or center everything goes allright. I tried the latest version 1.6.2 of the Content formating plugin, but the problem keeps the same. I'm currently using Confluence 2.2.8. See attachments for the errors

Hi Alain,
How can I emulate the <th> tag, i.e. use table-cell to achieve a heading like the leftmost screenshot of the second row of screenshots above?

Is it just me, or are all the documentation links broken? I can't seem to successfuly find documentation on the full use and options for most of the macros in this set.

Without a decent example it's kind of difficult to figure out exactly how to use options like frame and rules for the table macro. :-/

Can someone suggest a place I might find this stuff?

Hi!

I have a problem while trying to use the search-box Macro.

When I put the Macro on a page every thing is fine and can use it. But when I try to edit the page again I got an error  using the Rich-Text-Editor. The following Error-Message appears:

"Unable to render content due to system error: com/adaptavist/confluence/VelocityMacro.suppressSurroundingTagDuringWysiwygRendering?"

Can anybody help me.

Thanks, Alex

Hi,

I can't seem to find documentation anywhere for the {iframe} macro.

Does this macro have any documentation?

Thanks.

Unfortunatle the only documentation that exists for the iframe (and several other of the html tag replication macros) is in the confluence notation guide (on the right when you edit a page), this is one of several macros (like the {table} macro) which directly replicate the html tag of the same name. So documentiong these in HTML isnt a high priority at the moment.

table:border=1 does not work. Any ideas why it wont work. I am using confluence 2.5

How can I make cells with the table-macro, which span multiple rows or columns?

Hi,

I am very interested to use this plugin, but how can I download it without the repository client? This page display the error

Open source BSD license but no source?  I'm not sure that makes sense, perhaps either the source should be referenced or 'Open Source' should be removed from the description.

Am I missing a link to the source or subversion?

I still can't find any examples for iframe. Can someone, please, provide an example?

Thank you.

Anyone know the difference between 1.6.5 and 1.6.6? There aren't any release notes. Thanks.

The roundrect macro has some css issues on the bottom corners when using the new Default Theme in 2.8. I don't know if this problem exists in 2.9. It works fine in the Classic Theme.

It seems I can't have the color work on Internet Explorer 6.0:

{bgcolor:red}red color{bgcolor} 

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Carol

Can someone please confirm whether or not any of these macros would expose us to cross-site scripting attacks?
Do they work with "Anti XSS Mode", and would that prevent any potential problems?

When using multiple lozenge macros in columns and sections, in Confluence 2.9.2 (latest) there is no spacing between the lozenges. For example:
 Compared to previous versions:
 
 I like the previous version better. Any advice on what to do to make it look like the old version?

Add the following css

table.lozenge { margin:3px; }

Is there any documentation about the new search-box functionality?  I rolled back the upgrade after all the search boxes we had set up to search just the space they were in gained drop boxes with global search as the default search.

It would be the nice if the default option was the same as it was and the dropdown box was an option....

I'm having the same problem as Stuart Gilberd above. I'm trying to use the seach-box to find information in one specific space, then group that information by type. My code is as follows.

{search-box:space=TEST|group=type}

As Stuart explained, i only get a dropdown box next to the search box with an option to search the TEST space. However, the dropdown box defaults to Global Spaces, which is not helpful. Furthermore, the results do not group by type.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Salutations,

The lozenge macro works fine for me. Just a question, is it possible that its link parameter when activated/clicked directly opens the link in a new page or a tab?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Currently we are using multiple iframes in a wiki page to render external url's..  Sometimes all iframes are get rendered. but some times only few iframes are get displayed.  what will be the reason?  how to make all iframes get worked at all times ?

could anyone advise?

Thx

Hari.

I realize the lozenge macro was intentionally designed to "break" when there is too much text inside it. However, we still have users that like to use 800x600 resolution, and even concise descriptions are too long, and cause the lozenge to "break" for them. Is there any way, using CSS even (which is easy in the latest Confluence release) to either allow the lozenge to grow, or to specify its height?

hi

i have this problem with the lozenge macro when using it in a user macro (the links and icons are not apear inside the box), this problem happened when i upgrade the confluecne to 3.0

even thoug it works with out using it in the user macro, it was working fine in the previous version of confluecne 2.10.2

can any one help

thanks

Is this going to be updated to work with Confluence 3.0?  I do not see it the Confluence 3.0 Plugin Repository.

I'm unable to see this in the Confluence 3.0 Repository and its preventing me from using theme builder  :(

Any idea when it will be available?

Hi, I would like to install this plugin but our Confluence 2.8.2 is running on Java 1.4 and I've had some problems loading plugins that were compiled with newer versions of Java. Could you please tell me which version of this plugin will work with Java 1.4 ?

In the discussion above there is a thread (http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFEXT/Content+Formatting+Macros?focusedCommentId=170493004#comment-170493004) discussing the spacing between lozenges.  There is some recommended CSS to put into Confluence's Custom HTML.  Doing this makes things better, but does not solve the issue completely.  When you are previewing a page the spacing is incorrect.

Are there plans to move this CSS into the plugin?

BTW, I opened a related JIRA issue (http://jira.adaptavist.com/browse/WEB-79) if people wish to vote for this.

Thanks,
don.

The roundrect macro is not displayed correctly on our Confluence v3.0.1.

The roundrect macro is displayed differently when opened in firefox or in IE . (see attached screenshots)

This is how it displays in Internet Explorer:

And this is how it looks in Firefox:

This might be css related.

Can this issue be solved by some css settings?

Any help/ideas are welcome.

Hi,

is there any way to get conditional comments to work with style macro ?

e.g.

{style}
< !––[if lt IE 7]>––>
div.topsectionright span.bigsize span.image-wrap img{width:140% !important;}
<![endif]-->
{style}
