Confluence 1.0a2

Confluence 1.0a2 was released November 6, 2003.

New Features

• Shortcut links (CONF-195 & CONF-247) - shortcut links enable you to easily make links to any 'web service' from within the syntax of a Confluence page. Simply specify your shortcut and the URL to link to (eg "google", "http://www.google.com/search?q=$1") to add your own links. You could use this to link directly to JIRA installations, Google, intranets, searches or anything that has a 'URI' based interface.
• Revert page to a previous version (CONF-32) - revert to a previous version of any given page from the list of previous versions.
• Forgot password function (CONF-88) - retrieve your password if you happen to have forgotten it
• Report: undefined pages (CONF-197) - list of all pages which are linked to from other pages, but not defined.
• Report: orphaned pages (CONF-198) - shows all the pages which are never linked to (ie have content but no way to get to them).
• Interstitial help page after creating a space (CONF-251)
• 'Notify me', and HTML/text email preferences, with HTML email content
• Links to non-exported pages are now maintained in exported PDFs (the links point back to the online Confluence installation)
• Custom Radeox macros can now be used within Confluence - this enables you to write your own macros to produce custom content
• XML import/export of a single space (CONF-199) - useful for porting spaces between installations
• XML import/export of a single page (CONF-200) - useful for creating pages automatically, or sync'ing pages between installations.
• Many other minor fixes, improvements and performance tweaks
