I've created a Confluence blueprint plugin as per the basic/intermediate/advanced tutorials available from Atlassian. I now want to update the page template to include a {HTML} macro with embedded CDATA, where a URL in that CDATA contains a portion to be substituted with user-entered data.
What I'd ideally like to do, with the <at:var...> being substituted with locationid:
<ac:structured-macro ac:name="html">
<ac:plain-text-body>
<![CDATA[<iframe src="http://...?locationid=<at:var at:name="locationid"/>"></iframe>]]>
</ac:plain-text-body>
</ac:structured-macro>
Unfortunately this does not work; the <at:var at:name="..."> inside CDATA can't be substituted.
I've tried various formats of this, for example substituting in the entire CDATA string itself, even going as far as substituting in the entire <ac:structured-macro> block in a single string. None work.
A Google search brought up two very similar questions on the Atlassian community wiki, this and this. Furthermore I found a Confluence Server JIRA to fix this problem, but it's been rejected and closed.
Despite the evidence against a solution I'm hoping that someone creative has an idea of how I can achieve this?
Atlassian SDK: 6.2.14
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking ;) but could it be the same as this discussion in our doc space?
Confluence 4.3-RC1 Release Notes
Related
I'd like to minimize the number of times I have to type dates and version numbers across release notes pages and such on Confluence.
How can I reuse a text string within the same page as well as across pages on Confluence?
Right now, I have a bit of text (for example, a version number) which is typed out in multiple locations:
Page A
Top of page
Middle of page
End of page
Page B
I'd like to be able to type the value once and have it automatically appear in all places.
There are multiple bits of text I'd like to do this with on one page.
The closest I've found so far is the MultiExcerpt macro, but unfortunately it displays all content with newline wrapping instead of inline and that's a dealbreaker for me.
You may want to look into Comala Metadata, sounds like what you are looking for.
Disclaimer, I work in the company behind that app, in Comalatech.

Have you tried using Confluence own Include Macro or the Excerpt Macro. The include macro can be inline if you keep it on the same line in the editor.
There is an official extension called Multi Excerpt. It works like Excerpt, but you can use more then one for one page.
harp js seems to be a very useful tool to me.
they suppor ejs compile,but, I didn't find how to get the ejs custom delimiters function support.
I want to replace <% %> with new tokens such as {{}}.
This hasn’t been made configurable within Harp, sorry. We do our best to set useful defaults rather than making everything configurable, so you don’t have to worry about setting things up. It also means that boilerplates, docs, and blog posts will still be relevant for anyone using EJS.
If it’s really necessary for your particular project, and you would still like to use Harp, you could fork Terraform (Harp’s pre-processing engine) and modify the settings, but personally I would recommend just using the default delimiters.
I get the following errors from the Google Rich Snippet Tool for my website http://iancrowther.co.uk/
hcard
Warning: This information will not appear as a rich snippet in search results results, because it seems to describe an organization. Google does not currently display organization information in rich snippets
Warning: At least one field must be set for Hcard.
Warning: Missing required field "name (fn)".
Im experimenting with vcard and Schema.org and am wondering if I'm missing something or the validator is playing up. I have added vcard and Schema.org markup to the body which may be causing confusion. Also, I am making the assumption I can use both methods to markup my code.
Update:
I guess with the body tag, I'm just trying to let Google discover the elements which make up the schema object within the page. I'm not sure if this is a good / bad way to approach things? However it lets my markup be free of specific blocks of markup. I guess this is open to discussion but I like the idea of having a natural flow to the content that's decorated in the background. Do you think there is any negative impact? I'm undecided.
I am in favour of the Person structure, this was a good call as this is more representative of the current site content. I am a freelance developer and as such use this page as my Organisation landing page, so I guess I have to make a stronger decision of the sites goals and tailor the content accordingly, ie Organisation or Person.
I understand that there is no immediate rich snippet gains, but im a web guy so have a keen interest in these kind of things.
With schema testing, I find it easiest to start from the most obvious problem, and try to work our way deeper from there. Note, I have zero experience with hcard, but I don't believe the error you mentioned actually has anything to do with your hcard properties.
The most obvious problem I see, is that your body tag has an itemtype of schema.org\Organization. When you set an itemtype on a dom element, you are saying that everything inside of that element is going to help describe that itemtype. Since you've placed this on your body element, you are quite literally telling Google that your entire page is about an organization.
From the content of your page, I would recommend changing that itemtype to schema.org\Person. This would seem to be a more accurate description. Once you make that change and run the scanner again, you may see more errors relating to the schema and we can work through those too (for example, you'll probably need to set familname and givenName).
With all of that said, you should know that currently there are no rich snippets that you will gain from adding this schema data. Properly setting this up on your page, is only good to do, especially since we don't know what rich snippets Google or others will expose in the future, but currently you won't see any additional rich snippets in Google search results from adding these tags. I don't want to discourage you from setting this up properly but I just want to set your expectations.
Every single GWT example I look at contains references to $PP_OFF. See http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit-doc-1-4/wiki/DevGuideStyleSheets or http://khanzeeshan.wordpress.com/2009/06/12/creating-project-for-gwt-1-5-3/ for example.
What does $PP_OFF mean?
It's a bit of defunct wiki markup. The Google Code wiki treats {{{...}}} blocks as code and attempts to pretty-print them, which doesn't always work well; $PP_OFF is, or was, an undocumented feature that's supposed to stop that happening. See http://groups.google.com/group/gwt-google-apis/msg/04ae50fdd4339294 for the only mention of this that I can find online.
You should completely ignore it wherever you see it.
(You might be wondering why it would appear on some random person's WordPress blog, which of course isn't using the Google Code wiki. The answer appears to be that the person in question just copied-and-pasted stuff from Google's documentation. See http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/1.5/tutorial/create.html if you're curious about the original source which, of course, he didn't credit.)
I run a blog where the blog title is either an external link or an internal link to a longer piece similar to what you’ve seen on similar blogs. For some reason, ExpressionEngine (1.6.x) does nothing to sanitize such things as ampersands in the URLs provided.
I use Markdown in the body text, which seems to do a great job of sanitizing all URLs. Yet, ExpressionEngine’s own handling of the titles doesn’t cut it. I have tried formatting the “title URLs” in Markdown and failed miserable, and damn if I know what the hell it is in ExpressionEngine that prevents me from using it.
So the question boils down to what other ExpressionEngine 1.6.x users do and have done, or whether someone can come up with a MacGyver-esque solution. Because I’ve been stumped upwards of half a year.
The XML Encode Plugin for EE1 from Rick Ellis of EllisLab will convert your special characters to HTML entities.
The plugin was originally designed to convert reserved XML characters to HTML entities in the ExpressionEngine RSS templates, but should work for what you need.
To use the plugin, wrap your {title_link} custom field in between its tag pairs:
{exp:xml_encode}
{title_link}
{/exp:xml_encode}
This would result in:
