      Hi Shameem,

      Confluence does not support integrated podcasting, so you will not be able to create podcast feeds. You may like to lodge a feature request at http://jira.atlassian.com

      Alternatively, you can embed playable multimedia files into your text-based news posts. Users will be able to view the news posts as an RSS feed and listen to AV podcasts automatically from their browser.

      [Download podcast|^file.mp3] or listen now: 
!file.mp3!

    Hi,

    Does anyone know if there is a macro that produces the green "+" and "-" icons that allows user to reveal/hide content in a page, such as the one on Confluence Documentation Home under Recently Update?

    Hi Ronnie,

    No, but you could create a user macro to do this, for example:

    <img src="/images/icons/add_16.gif" onClick="javascript:toggleVisibility('myDiv'); return false;" border=0>

<div id="myDiv">
$body
</div>

    Thanks Agnes!

    I have another question. I'm putting together a FAQ and I want to do it in a similar style as the Confluence FAQ. Is there a plugin that collects page statistics? In particular, something that supports collecting number of times a page is viewed over a period of time and pages that are recently modified (similar to the Recently Updated section on the dashboard)?

      Hi Ronnie,

      Our FAQ page is made up of using the contentbylabel macro. Essentially you would have to label all your pages for it to work correctly There is also a plugin for statistics, although it may not be exactly what you are looking for (http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFEXT/Global+Statistics+Plugin)

      Hope that helps!

      Agnes.

        Yeah, this is not quite what I'm looking for. Specifically, I am looking for any plugin/macro that can list the most recently added/changed pages within a space, similar to the "Recently Updated" section on the Dashboard.  I checked out the global statistics pages before, but it's not what I'm looking for. Ideally, I'd like something that would take the 10 most frequently accessed pages in a space and display them in a list (useful if you are putting together a "10 hottest questions" section on a FAQ, for example).

      Hi Hari,

      It is possible to use wiki markup in a velocity file by using the following:

      $helper.renderConfluenceMacro("<the markup>")

      For example:

      $helper.renderConfluenceMacro("

      Some text
      ")
      $helper.renderConfluenceMacro("Test text in bold")
      $helper.renderConfluenceMacro("Link to Google ")

      However, there is a limitation to this where it is only valid for wiki markup notation that do not require next line.

      Cheers,
      Tony

    Does anyone have experince with charging interal users in a corperate enviroment for wiki use? We are trying to devise a way to recover costs associated with the upkeep of our wiki and need to know what kind of charge models others are using. Thanks!

      Just let it be known that you intend to charge for wiki use and the problem will solve itself, and you won't actually have to implement any chargeback system.

      The "charge model" we (and everyone I know of) use is the same one we use for anything else that is a basic necessity: charge everyone a fixed rate, or just take it out of general expenses.

      The reason for this is that if the wiki is worth implementing at all, it's because it saves (and earns, through improved effectiveness) far more than it costs, but the savings can't be quantified.  Anything that depends on network effects (more users -> more value -> more users...) can't tolerate usage-sensitive cost accounting, which in itself costs money to implement and perform.

      I would urge you to take whoever is calling for this feature out back and work him/her over thoroughly with a clue stick.  Here's a good one... Wiki Patterns
