Please check your pages and report problems and questions to confluence@cornell.edu. Licensing error in Confluence page footer Adaptavist, the maker of the ThemeBuilder add-on to Confluence, has confirmed that a bug which they hope to solve soon is causing the text "LICENSING ERROR - An error has occurred with your license that may impact the usability of this application, please contact us" to appear at the bottom on many Confluence pages. Adaptavist confirms that this error does not cause any performance problems with the Confluence wiki. Not finding a Confluence account when adding permissions? Confluence accounts are created at the time a netID holder logs in for the first time. If you see the error "User netID could not be found. Please confirm his or her existence with a Confluence Administrator" then please ask the user to log in to Confluence once to establish an account. After the first log in, you will then be able to add the netID to Confluence space permissions. Confluence account clean up We are starting a process to deactivate Confluence accounts belonging to graduated students and staff and faculty who have left the university . This process is reversible and does not remove pages or other content added by these users. have been removed. Please let us know by writing to confluence at cornell.edu if there are any questions or concerns about this process. Archiving Inactive Spaces Over the years, the amount of content in Confluence has grown so that there are more than 1,700 spaces. Atlassian, the makers of Confluence, tell us that we have a very large Confluence instance. A number of these spaces are inactive, and the content has not been updated for many years sometimes because the original creators and maintainers of the spaces have left the university. In order to keep Confluence running well for the users of actively maintained spaces, we are archiving a number of these inactive spaces. Older News |
You can see a list under Spaces > Space directory > Archived category. The content remains in place, accessible and editable although it will not appear in search results unless you check the "Search archived spaces" checkbox. Change spaces from "Documentation" to "Global Look and Feel" theme Atlassian, the makers of the Confluence wiki, have been announcing for some time that they intend to retire the "Documentation" theme which controls the way some spaces appear. This theme will be replaced by the "Global Look and Feel" theme at the time when we upgrade to version 6.6 of Confluence. Confluence 6.6 is now available and we are planning an upgrade. If your space uses the "Documentation" theme, we encourage you to change the theme now at your leisure in advance of the forced change. We are now in the process of changing any remaining spaces which you have not changed. A space uses the "Documentation" theme if there is a "Browse" option in the top menu. More details. |
