Hi Michael,

Just found out the way to mix both suppliers into the macro:

{add-page:prefix=(%child-counter:next%) %content:parent > page:title%}Add Page{add-page}

This will append the auto running number & the parent page name.

FYI, you need to install Reporting plugin for the above supplier :)

Hi Michael,

For running number, please try this:

{add-page:prefix=(%child-counter:next%) }Add page{add-page}

Hi Daniel,

We are tried to replicate your problem yesterday by using the JIRA installation for all authentication and authorisation, unfortunately we cann't find any issue on it.

Based on your logs above, it seem like the exception is thrown when rendering your personal sidebar.

For further investigation, please remove the {show-to} from your page and see whether it is caused by this macro.

Thanks.

Alex Chan replied on March 09, 2010 01:50 to the update "CustomWare Visibility Plugin version 1.8.0 released" in CustomWare:

I test again with your macro and it seem working for the Confluence with standard authentication. It could be the different authentication causing this issue.

Please try to tail your tomcat by following command:
tail -f /confluence/logs/catalina.out
and get the stack trace.

Thanks.

The child-counter will be available in Version 2.8.2. David will be releasing it soon.

Alex Chan replied on March 05, 2010 09:50 to the problem "BUG - Spacing issue with bulleted lists and hide-from/show-to macros" in CustomWare:

Hi,

Please correct me if I am wrong, my understanding on your question will be you are using Confluence 2.10.2 and using different version of Visibility Plugin except for 1.7.1.

So may I know which version of Visibility plugin causing the issue that you mentioned above?

Please refer to this page : http://www.customware.net/repository/... to get the correct version of the plugin for your Confluence.

Thanks.

Alex Chan replied on March 05, 2010 09:43 to the problem "{show-if:action=edit} macro no longer working" in CustomWare:

Yes, action=edit will work for templates only

The current visibility plugin do not have the feature to show when the normal page is editing and hide when it display as a normal page. The only way to achieve your goal is use the action which is seldom used. For example:
action=template

Or you can consider to use {hide-if:action=view}

Alex Chan replied on March 03, 2010 02:17 to the problem "{show-if:action=edit} macro no longer working" in CustomWare:

Hi Paul,

First of all, if you are using Confluence 3.1, please get the latest version (1.8.0) of the visibility plugin.

Back to your question, action=edit will only work with live templates since in edit mode you have direct access to the wiki code.

So you may not able to see it in the Preview pane. Beside, it seem like non of the available action modes will be show in the Preview pane.

To summaries it, when edit the page without template, you will see all the wiki code in the wiki pane. When you having the live template when editing the page, action=edit will do the job that you want.
