New and Noteworthy
Confluence 7.0
The projectdoc Toolbox and all the dependent add-ons need to be updated to run on Confluence 7.0.
This version no longer supports Confluence versions prior to the latest 6.6.
Aspects
With this version aspects are coming to the projectdoc Toolbox.
Aspects allow to add properties and sections to an existing document by simply adding an aspect document.

For more information on aspects, please refer to the tip Using Aspects.
Autocomplete (Sneak Preview)
This version does not provide full support for Autocomplete for projectdoc macros. The following versions will continuously extend the support for more macros and more macro parameters.
Currently there is Autocomplete for:
- Multi-document selection for Display Document Property Macros
- Names in Name List Macros (but only known names are supported! - see below!)
- Doctype Parameters (but the Doctype Cache may need to be monitored or cleared)
- Property Names (only for a limited number of macros)
You may deactivate the sneak preview of Autocomplete by switching on the feature toggle. Per default the Autocomplete Feature is activated.
But before you do this check out the following warnings!
- Not all macro parameters are supported. Some macros, although the provide a autocompletable parameter do not support Autocomplete, while others do.
This may be not very intuitive especially for teams that do not really need the Autocompölete featured of the projectdoc Toolbox. - Some properties force the user to select from a defined set of values. If no such restriction applies we call it Ad-hoc Taxonomy Support. If you need to allow arbitrary values for all properties, switch on Force ad-hoc Taxonomies.
- The support of the Macro Parameter Panel to quickly select a property is optional. We are still working to improve the user experience here, but you may want to check out if it would make it more productive even in its limited version. Check Use Macro Parameter Panel for Autocomplete to show a quick selection field in the Macro Parameter Panel.
If you cannot accept this deficiencies and want to uncheck the Autocomplete Feature, go to the General configuration and navigate to the projectdoc Toolbox Experimental Features page (on the left side).
See Autocomplete for details.
Breaking Changes
This version requires compatible versions of all extension add-ons and doctype add-ons.

PDAC-1109 | Support Confluence 6.6.x to 7.0.x |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Only the latest Version of Confluence 6.6 up to 7.0 is supported. |
The following features require a reindex to work on existing documents.
Key | Summary | T | P | Status | Resolution | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
PDAC-1104 | Ancestor Search Fix |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed | |
PDAC-1096 | Artificial Properties for URLs |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
For absolute URLs we need to provide two additional artificial properties.
These properties would allow to use them in selects and – maybe more importantly – allow to access this information via the Web API. Note that existing pages must be reindexed to have access to the new artificial properties. |
Upgrade Instructions
Install the new OBR of the projectdoc Toolbox.
Then update all already installed versions of extensions add-ons, before updating already installed doctype add-ons.
List of Changes
The following changes are part of the latest projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence.
Key | Summary | T | P | Status | Resolution | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
PDAC-1109 | Support Confluence 6.6.x to 7.0.x |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Only the latest Version of Confluence 6.6 up to 7.0 is supported. |
PDAC-1098 | Provide Autocomplete for Display Document Property Macros |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Support autocomplete for multiple documents. |
PDAC-1097 | Provide Autocomplete for Name List Macros |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
The name list macros need to support users to select a valid name. |
PDAC-1089 | Transclude from Transclusions |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Currently it is not possible to transclude from transcluded content. This feature would be necessary to provide the Aspects Feature. |
PDAC-1113 | Provide Autocomplete for Document Property Names |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Allow autocomplete for macro parameters to select a single document property name. |
PDAC-1112 | Provide Autocomplete for Doctypes |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Add autocomplete to doctype parameters of macros. |
PDAC-1110 | Support Reindex and Refresh Site |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Provide a REST service that allows to reindex and refresh a site in one go. |
PDAC-1108 | Support Reindexing Tree |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Allow to reindex each page in a space that has no parent to be traversed to its children (root to leaf). |
PDAC-1107 | Document Instance Metadata for Properties |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Add a service to fetch document property names from documents by their document IDs. |
PDAC-1100 | Provide Aside Panel Macro |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
In order to allow users to control the layout of the panels on the homepages and index pages for doctypes we need to replace the standard Panel Macro with a macro that has access to the projectdoc infrastructure. This way users have the ability to set the styles via a custom CSS. Later we may extend to support of configuration via space properties. |
PDAC-1096 | Artificial Properties for URLs |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
For absolute URLs we need to provide two additional artificial properties.
These properties would allow to use them in selects and – maybe more importantly – allow to access this information via the Web API. Note that existing pages must be reindexed to have access to the new artificial properties. |
PDAC-1092 | Replace Values Feature for Web API |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Besides merge-values and delete-values we also need replace-values which will keep the macro intact, but clear the existing and insert the new values. |
PDAC-1087 | Services for Autocomplete |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Provide services to access from the UI to allow autocompletion for Name List Macros and Display Property Macros. This is a background service used by UI components to provide autocomplete for macro parameters. |
PDAC-1091 | Aspect Feature |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Add macros to use the Aspects Feature easier. |
PDAC-1123 | Render Short Description as Tooltip |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Render the short description of the referenced projectdoc document as tooltip to the link. |
PDAC-1122 | Access Check for Wiki Link Macro |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The Wiki Link Macro renders a link whether or not the user has access privileges to access the referenced page. The macro should assume a page unaccessible as not existent. |
PDAC-1117 | Handling of Rendering Errors |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
In order to reduce the logging output we should not log a stack trace on a rendering problem. While this is quite useful in development, a problem that is not resolved at short term in production will render lots of stack traces. We should also consider to prevent the rerendering of a value even if this results in setting a blank value. Since we cannot derive the correct value (we have a rendering error) it is unimportant if the derived value is related to the the original value or blank. Since the original value might be a problem for services using this value, we should replace the original value with the empty string (for the derived rendered value). |
PDAC-1115 | Change Demo Space Doctypes |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Change the doctype name of both demo spaces to "demo-space". All doctypes of space homepages should be suffixed by "-space". |
PDAC-1111 | Remove @self from Transclusion Reference Macro default |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
As standard by all other macros, leaving the document parameter blank will reference the containing document. |
PDAC-1106 | Sort returned Doctypes |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Sort the doctype returned by the REST API to provide a recognizable order for clients. |
PDAC-1105 | Handle Artificial Properties first |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
To allow properties to rely on artificial properties, the artificial properties derived from artificial properties are rendered before document properties are used to derive artificial properties. |
PDAC-1102 | Add the Creator's and Last Modifier's Full Name |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Adding '$' to artificial property Creator or Last Modifier should render the full name of the creator or last modifier. |
PDAC-1121 | Paging Fails |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Traversing a document result list fails with a NoSuchElementException. |
PDAC-1119 | Aside Panel Rendering |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The aside panel fails to generate valid XML. A div element is not closed properly. |
PDAC-1118 | NPE in Ancestor Property Macro |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The parent macro runs into a NPE in case the page is not a projectdoc document. The macro is not defined to be used on a page that is not a projectdoc document and therefore should return the default string and not run into a NPE. |
PDAC-1116 | Preserve the Rendering Output Type |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The transclusion macros fail to copy the render output type.
|
PDAC-1104 | Ancestor Search Fix |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed | |
PDAC-1103 | Create-from-Template fails without Parent Page |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
A user clicks on a create-from-template button that is configured to send the new page to another space. If a user does not provide a parent page by sending the page to its doctype homepage, the wizard stalls. The reason is that the projectdoc Toolbox requires a parent page to send the new page to. Unfortunately one of the services does not default to the space homepage, assuming that a parent is always specified. Due to the service API this assumption is wrong. |
PDAC-1101 | Connector for Name List Where Param |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The connector should be AND not OR to have the Where Parameter of the Name List Macro as a constraint. |
PDAC-1099 | Fix Rendering of List Property Values |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
When rendering values from a list the representation could be a comma separated list or in a boxes view (required to have additional configuration in case the boxes should have another color). We need to make sure that preview and actual rendering in a page are the same. |
PDAC-1095 | Parsing Fix |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
XML parsing is broken, especially for fragments of property values. |
PDAC-1094 | External Link Macro fails to render properly |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The External Link Macro does not render a propert link within the Document Properties Marker Macro. The problem is that the editor will add additional HTML p elements which are not removed by the macro. The HTML code that is rendered by the macro is not valid and properly corrected by the browser. But then there is only the label and the link to the external resource is missing. |
PDAC-1093 | Generate Date Property for Parent Macro |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
For a referencing parent property to a date, the artificial properties must also be generated. |
PDAC-1088 | Traverse the Default IDX space closure |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
In case the default index is in charge, the space closure for that space will not get traversed, but should. In case the default index space defines a delegate space, this delegate space must be added to the space closure. Workaround: Specify the delegate space explicitly: delegate-space=IDX |
PDAC-1120 | Remove Info Logging on JS Console |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
The JavaScript console in the browser shows some logging at INFO level we should suppress. |
PDAC-1090 | Child Documents Macro and Property Selection |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
The selected property should be taken into account when defining the query. If it is a non-standard attribute, the query configuration must explicitly name the property so that the correct query is constructed. Currently the implementation leaves the list of selected properties blank. This is typically not a problem since the Name and other properties that we consider here as valid values do not need a special treatment. But there may be use cases we do not think of today. |

|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Remove services for import of projectdoc documents via CSV format. This service is currently not covering all use cases and therefore not ready for production. |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
PDCORED-243 | Add Aspect Doctype |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Add a doctype to provide information about aspects of concepts and related information. |
PDCORED-242 | Add Concept Doctype |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Provide a doctype to explain concepts. |
PDCORED-248 | Add Configuration Space |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Add a configuration space as a specialized version of the index space. |
PDCORED-250 | Autocomplete without Tagging |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Define for each property of each doctype if it should support tagging (i.e. allow an ad-hoc taxonomy) or not. |
PDCORED-244 | Use Name List Macro for Organization |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Currently the reference to an organization on the person template is a simple link. We need to replace the link with a Name List Macro so that users are supported to find the organization with the new autocomplete feature. In case the link does not point to an organization document, it is easier for the user to replace the macro with a link than to add the Name List Macro. |
PDCORED-241 | Aside Panel for Home and Index Pages |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Replace the panels with fixed styles to Aside Panel Macros controlled by custom CSS. This includes home, index, space home pages. |
PDCORED-238 | Empty Link Default for Home and Index Pages |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
When rendering links in the Index Views or Related Information panels, links to not existing pages should be rendered as empty instead of plain text. Plain text might help users to recognize where a link would be, if the resource exists. But the plain text often seems to look odd. Not rendering a link to a page that does not exist would also remove clutter from the navigation pages. |
PDCORED-237 | Metadata Doctype as Aspect |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Design the metadata doctype as aspect. This doctype is a generic aspect. |
PDCORED-236 | Create Button for Child Documents |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Add a Create-from-Template button to the children section. |
PDCORED-249 | Clean Space Homepage Templates |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Parameters of the Document Properties Marker Macro should not override and set <ac:parameter ac:name="render-as">definition-list</ac:parameter> The doctype should also have the suffix "-space". |
PDCORED-247 | Add Iteration to Event's Overview for Subject Doctype |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
It is important to know in the overview if an event is done or still in progress. For categories and tags we do not list the doctype. We still do it for subjects. We need to decide whether or not it should be shown and streamline this in all overviews. Therefore the doctype column in the sibject's event table is also removed. |
PDCORED-246 | Flag Spaces |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
To make homepages of spaces be identified by their type, add them as flag. |
PDCORED-245 | Attachment Space Enhancements |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Set search space for attachment spaces and index space to @all. This allows all documents to find hits in all spaces. |
PDCORED-240 | List Types and Media Type from Library Space |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
From the space homepage of the library space there should be wiki links to the resource type, the quote type, and the media type. In prior versions of the space these homepages where part of the space. Since the indexing doctype homepages have been moved to the index space, there should still be links to those homepages. They support users to find resources in the library. Also remove the link to the local Type page which is currently empty. |
PDCORED-239 | Media types home page is missing in Index Space |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
The homepage for the mediatype doctype is missing on the Index Space. The type doctype is present. They should be both present. |

DEVDIARY-113 | Use Name List Macro for File |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Currently the reference to a file on the asset, event, and todo template is a simple link. We need to replace the link with a Name List Macro so that users are supported to find the todo (where the file points to) with the new autocomplete feature. In case the link does not point to a file document, it is easier for the user to replace the macro with a link than to add the Name List Macro. |

This extension is experimental.
Key | Summary | T | P | Status | Resolution | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
PDRISKMGMT-14 | Provide Doctype per Parameter |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Define the doctype property as macro parameter instead of as a row in the properties table. Requires the projectdoc Toolbox 4.2. |
PDRISKMGMT-31 | Remove Content Management Dashboard |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Most spaces do not need the Content Management Dashboard, but it is always added by default. This version removes the tool. It may be added by those spaces that need to provided it manually. Probably it is only required to be supported by the Core Doctypes. |
PDRISKMGMT-30 | Support projectdoc Toolbox 4.9 |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The projectdoc Toolbox 4.9 provides two constructors for Content Providers, one of which is deprecated. The new Doctype MP generates the new constructor and is therefore no longer compatible with versions of the projectdoc Toolbox prior to 4.9. |
PDRISKMGMT-20 | Hide More Info Aside Panel from Readers |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The reference on the doctype index page and homepage that provides additional information on the doctype is only relevant for authors. Therefore the aside panel is not shown to readers. |
PDRISKMGMT-17 | Hide Description Sections per Default |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The text of the descriptions section is typically the introduction to the document. Therefore the section title should not be shown per default. |
PDRISKMGMT-13 | Support empty Aside Panels |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Redesign the integration of the Aside Panel Macro to allow hiding empty panels. |
PDRISKMGMT-12 | Support Short Name Queries |

Allow to query for Names and Short Names alike with type doctypes. |
PDRISKMGMT-11 | Add IDs Home/Index Page Boxes |

Replace the panels with fixed styles to Aside Panel Macros controlled by custom CSS. This includes home, index, space home pages. |
PDRISKMGMT-8 | Empty Link Default for Home and Index Pages |

When rendering links in the Index Views or Related Information panels, links to not existing pages should be rendered as empty instead of plain text. Plain text might help users to recognize where a link would be, if the resource exists. But the plain text often seems to look odd. Not rendering a link to a page that does not exist would also remove clutter from the navigation pages. |
PDRISKMGMT-7 | Create Button for Child Documents |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Add a Create-from-Template button to the children section. |
PDRISKMGMT-32 | Hide more Properties by Default |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Properties on documents that are used to be rendered in special contexts (such as short name) or are only relevant in overviews (such as Iteration) should be hidden per default. This includes: Name, Short Name, and Iteration. |
PDRISKMGMT-29 | Flag for Context in Home and Index Pages |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Add an identifier to locate home and index pages of an app. |
PDRISKMGMT-19 | Remove Wiki Links from Bottom |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
The reference to the central index page or homepage is not very helpful since all links are also on the right navigation. If the list is really long, users may find a link at the end, but this link is arbitrary. Therefore these links should be removed, improving the layout. |
PDRISKMGMT-24 | Section Titles hidden per Default |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Instead of only hiding the description section's title, all titles of sections based on the default configuration are hidden. |
PDRISKMGMT-18 | Doctype Type Create Template |
|
|
Done | Fixed |
Doctype types generate the wrong blueprint references for their create subtype macro. Also the label is wrong. Both refer to the type's doctype. |
PDRISKMGMT-26 | Render Type Homepage Links on Home and Index Pages |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
To enhance navigability we should render links to type homepages in the list of index views (aside panel) one homepages and index pages of doctypes. |
PDRISKMGMT-25 | Default discard no-item links on new Spaces to false |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Make the space property projectdoc.projectdoc-table-merger-macro.param.discard.activate.no-items=false the default for new spaces. This way new users see all the links and can easily switch them off by altering the value of the property. |
PDRISKMGMT-22 | Autocreate Space Key fails |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
The space wizard does no longer autogenerate the space key. |
PDRISKMGMT-21 | Fix JavaScript for Doctype Wizards |
|
![]() |
Done | Fixed |
Check that wizard JS is fully loaded is missing. |
PDRISKMGMT-15 | Parent Property Metadata Non-Defaults |
