Confluence 4.3.2 Release Notes
15 October 2012
The Atlassian Confluence team is pleased to announce the release of Confluence 4.3.2. This release includes some nifty improvements and bug fixes:Don't have Confluence 4.3 yet?
Take a look at the new features and other highlights in the Confluence 4.3 Release Notes.
Excerpt Include macro across spaces
The Excerpt Include macro can now include content from another space. When you type the name of the page into the Excerpt Include macro dialog, Confluence will offer a list of matching pages, including those from other spaces.
Alternatively, you can type the space key followed by a colon (:) and the page name, like this:
Ability to nest Expand macros
You can now put one Expand macro inside another, and Confluence will correctly show and hide the contents of all Expand macros, including the nested ones. Here is an example.
More macros in Confluence mobile
We have made a large number of macros compatible with Confluence mobile. This means that many more macros will now work as expected when you access a page on your iPhone or iPad.
The following macros work in Confluence mobile:
Are you using the Zen Foundation theme? All the Zen macros work in Confluence mobile now too.
For plugin developers – making your macros work in Confluence mobile
Have you written a Confluence macro as a plugin? In Confluence 4.3.2 and later, you can make your macros work in Confluence mobile. For many macros there is little effort involved. Confluence mobile will render a macro if it contains a device type specification of "mobile". For more complex macros, you may need to convert the CSS and JavaScript too. Details are in this document: Making your macro render in Confluence mobile.
