New and Noteworthy
This release provides the following new and noteworthy features.

The autocomplete for macro parameters that expect doctype identifiers now allow to enter unknown identifiers manually.
This allows users having created their own doctypes by non-standard ways to use them with the macros.

Install the projectdoc Toolbox to your Confluence instance.
There are no additional steps necessary.
Upgrade Instructions
Update the projectdoc Toolbox on your Confluence instance.
This version supports Confluence version 9.2.x. and later.
For previous versions of Confluence there are separate versions of the projectdoc Toolbox:
- Confluence 8.x/7.x see version 6.2.15
- For Confluence 9.0.x and 9.1.x we recommend to upgrade to Confluence 9.2.x (LTS)
List of Changes
The following changes are part of version 7.4.0 of the projectdoc Toolbox for Confluence.
Key | Summary | T | P | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
PDAC-1858 | Allow Unknown Doctypes in Autocomplete |
|
![]() |
In macros that support a doctype parameter the autocomplete should allow also unknown doctype identifiers. This makes it easier for template authors to use their doctypes even if they cannot register them via the Confluence API (for instance by providing a blueprint app). |
PDAC-1857 | Update to Confluence Latest Releases |
|
![]() |
Update dependencies to the latest Confluence 9.2.6 and support for Confluence 9.5.2. Update Swagger dependencies to the latest versions. Update AMPS and dependency checks to latest version. |
PDAC-1856 | Add Access Annotations to REST Services |
|
![]() |
According to the DC review requirements we need to annotate REST services declaratively with access annotations. For some REST services the checks are made in the code only. |
PDAC-1855 | Support Doctype Definitions |
|
![]() |
Allow to integrate Doctype Definitions on Confluence Pages. A Doctype Definition must prevent the Confluence Page to be read as a projectdoc Document. This is the first step for the integration of the new doctype extension. |
PDAC-1854 | Name List Values with Comma |
|
![]() |
The Name List Macro should allow a value with comma iff it is the only value in the list. |
