Displaying the latest page revison and the last update date

[David Gibbons]

Hi,

I'm trying to create a user macro that displays the latest page version and the date the latest page was created. (Its part of a project to manage version control). I know the Change History macro exists but its too verbose.

I started to write a user macro as follows:

## Macro title: Page Version

## Macro has a body: N

## Body processing: No macro body

##

## Developed by: David Gibbons

## Date created: 09/12/2015

## Installed by:

## @noparams

<p>Confluence $generalUtil.versionNumber<p>

<p> Page Version $confPage.version</p>

<p> Page Version $confPage.versionComment<p>

When the macro runs it will display the current Confluence version but won't display the page version. Am I using the right variable or should I be using a different method,

Thanks,

Dave

Hi

$content

is the variable which holds reference to your current page

## @noparams
<p>Confluence: $generalUtil.versionNumber<p>
<p> Page Version: $content.version</p>
<p> Page Version comment: $content.versionComment</p>
