Notes Macro: The new editor of Confluence doesn't allow inserting of Notes macro in tables and lists

Kalpana Malladi August 26, 2021

We are unable to insert Notes macro in tables and lists in the new editor of Confluence.

It also doesn't allow inserting of excerpts in a table. This is severely limiting our experience and our shift to the new editor.

Any workaround for this at the moment?

I did, but it's not working. It displays this, even though I have the admin rights:

Do you have admin access on space level or your entire site ? It seems like you don't have site-admin access. For premium plan, only Product/Site/Organization admins can raise support requests.

@Kishan Sharma - I have admin access on space level. Strangely, my team member has the same level of access as me, and he is able to raise a ticket. We are wondering how and why.

@Kalpana Malladi If your colleague has Site Admin access, can you ask him to check your profile under User Management to see whether you have correct access, for example see below -

Thanks @Kishan Sharma for the pointer. I did ask my Manager to check my Org & Site Admin access and I wasn't having that. He provided me with the access and I am now able to raise a support ticket.

Thanks once again :-)

That's great @Kalpana Malladi :) If you find answer to your question you can accept it so that it will help other community members.

Kalpana Malladi August 31, 2021

Sure, will do.
On that note, I got to know that today, that Confluence doesn't support Nested macros. So, we won't be able to insert Excerpt macro inside a table or list :-(

That's a severe limitation.

You can try visiting Atlassian Support site and raise a ticket directly from there, that would be a better option.

Hi @Kalpana Malladi 

By Note macro, i hope you meant - Note panel, I am able to add it in a table but not in list.

I am not able to add Excerpt macro in the table and list, but Excerpt Include macro works in table but not in the list.

Hi @Kishan Sharma 

Yes, I meant Note panel. It works in the table, but not in the numbered lists.

And Excerpt macro doesn't work in tables. If the Excerpt macro doesn't work in the table, there is no point in being able to insert the Excerpt Include macro.

You are right @Kalpana Malladi hopefully someone from Atlassian Team can take a look and suggest.

Kalpana Malladi August 27, 2021

Yeah, I hope so.

Is there a way to tag Atlassian guys here in this thread? 

Strangely, I am unable to raise a support ticket on Atlassian in spite of being an admin.
