Highlights of Confluence 4.1


 

貼り付けられたリンクの自動変換

When you paste URLs into Confluence, Autoconvert will now analyse what you are pasting and automatically convert it into something that will display well in Confluence. Examples include YouTube videos, JIRA issue queries and Google Maps; many other content types are supported.

 

YouTube URLs

Create the widget below with Autoconvert, simply by pasting the YouTube URL onto the page.

Paste this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=2XQlQGf0lnk

To get this:

 

JIRA Issues URLs

Create the JIRA list below  with Autoconvert, simply by pasting the JIRA query URL onto the page.

Paste this:
https://jira.atlassian.com/sr/jira.issueviews:searchrequest-xml/temp/SearchRequest.xml?jqlQuery=project...

To get this:

 

Google Maps URLs

Create the Google Maps Widget below with Autoconvert, simply by pasting the Google Maps URL onto the page.

Paste this:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=san+francisco+golden+gate+bridge...

To get this:

 

Other supported content types:

  • Confluence page, blog, comment, status, user links, 
  • Shared screenshot links from Skitch,
  • Google search results links,
  • Confluence shortcut links: when pasting these, just the name of the link content (minus the URL prefix) will be used as the link display name.

 

 

 

画像効果

Enhance the presentation of your images and screenshots with slick new border effects.

Click Effects to apply taped style, instant camera style, drop shadow style, captions and more.

See the documentation for more details.

 

 

クイック検索と置換

Updating your wiki content is now easier with the new find and replace feature. Using familiar conventions, automatically find and replace specific text strings within your Confluence page or blog. It's also accessible with a keyboard shortcut Ctrl-F (Windows) or Cmd-F (Mac OS).

See the documentation for more details.

 

 

ダッシュボード上でのネットワークのフォロー

See recent updates from just the people you follow in Confluence, with the new network tab on the Confluence dashboard. With this, following a few people in different parts of your company to make a quick filter of the main events happening outside your immediate team. 

 

 

スペース添付ファイル マクロ

The new Space Attachments macro allows you to show all the attachments in the current space on your page. You can even filter them by file extension. Previously, you've only been able to show the attachments on the current page, using the Attachments macro.

Simply type {space-attachments} into a page to use it.

 

グローバル PDF スタイルシート

Set your custom PDF stylesheets at the global level, as with custom layouts. When there is no specific individual space stylesheet defined, PDF space exports will fall back to this global stylesheet. This means that users won't have to re-apply the same stylesheet to all their individual spaces. This is an efficient way of achieving one look and feel.

See the documentation for more details.

 

 

あらゆる文字をページタイトルに使用可能

Confluence now allows "special" characters in your page titles, such as semicolons and exclamation marks. This allows more descriptive page names and generally removes restrictions when creating page titles and naming your content.


 

新しい翻訳機能

For those customers working on creating translations of the Confluence user interface, the 4.1 release has a new feature that will help. After opening the Confluence dashboard, you can simply add this text to the end of your Confluence URL, like so:  

?i18ntranslate=on

Then press Enter.

This will then cause each element of the user interface to display its special key name while Confluence is still in an interactive mode. This makes it easier to find the essential context for each key, which can then be searched on http://translations.atlassian.com where you can enter an appropriate translation for your custom language pack.

The key names are displayed with a "lightning bolt" graphic between elements of the names. For example, the buttons will show up with elements shown like so:

For the Browse menu, you can find its associated system.space.menu key on http://translations.atlassian.com.  When you use this new translation feature, you can see the full context of the user interface elements. By understanding where a feature appears on the interface, for example the Browse menu, you can write a more meaningful translation for your users.

To turn off the translation view, use this:

?i18ntranslate=off

 

その他の改善

As always, we have made various small improvements to Confluence.

General improvements

  • Favourites have been refined
     You'll now see a newly named and cleaner Favourites tab in your personal space. Additionally, the list of favourites is now paginated and you can click the stars to remove favourites.
  • Global plugin & macro timeout setting
    There is now a globally configurable timeout setting. This will stop pages going into a permanent loading state. In the past, this could lead to instability issues.
  • New JSON RPC
    Confluence now has a JSON RPC library. This offers a way for Javascript developers to more easily access the Confluence API. For more details, see the documentation.

エディターの改善

  • Copy and paste table improvements
    You can now copy and paste multiple table rows and entire tables. There are also new keyboard shortcuts. You can now use Alt+Up Arrow or Alt+Down Arrow to add a row above or below the current row.
  • Copy and paste list improvements
    If you copy and paste list items from one list to another, the list content will now be joined together as expected. 

New icons

  • Based on customer feedback, this version of Confluence has a number of redesigned interface and installer icons. These new designs add more of a contemporary look and feel and are aimed at improving icon consistency and ease of use in Confluence.

Upgrading from a previous version of Confluence

We strongly recommend that you back up your Confluence Home directory and your database before upgrading. Follow the normal upgrade instructions to upgrade your test instance to this release. 

When upgrading from a previous version of Confluence, if you have customised your cache settings (as documented in Cache Performance Tuning) then you may run into memory problems during the wiki to XHTML migration. We are working to fix this in a later release, but in the meantime you can revert your ehcache.xml to the default version.
