Data Center Compatibility
To save resources on a Data Center installation of Confluence, macros are required to limit the number of hits processed in one request.
Since the projectdoc Toolbox is intended be used to design documents to be exported to formats like PDF, paging is not supported by most macros. If the result set generated by a macro is larger than the configured limit, dependent on the macro either a warning or an error is rendered. Users are required to adjust their queries to pass the limit test.
The following macros are also affected by this limitation.
