|

PDAC-1505 | Render Error on Invalid Protocol for Quote External Macro |
|
|
In case an URL with an invalid protocol is used by the External Quote macro then this URL is silently ignored and no link is rendered. Instead an error box should be rendered by the macro to signal clearly that the protocol is wrong. |

In case the documents of the Code Macro is not specified, then a specific error message should be rendered. |
PDAC-1506 | Tour by Property Macro fails on empty Name List in Debug Mode |

|
|
The message is currently styled as information on Confluence 7.x. |
PDAC-1502 | Render Protocol Error not to Log |

The Link External Macro logs invalid protocols to the server's error log. It should only be displayed in the user's UI. |
PDAC-1501 | Fix I18N for Code Macro |

Macro fails to access resource bundle with the correct keys. The keys used are provided by the InfoSys extension. If this extension is not deployed, the resources are missing. The keys must be altered to point to resources in the Toolbox's bundle. |
