first row in table (underneath header) has unwanted border / sort function

[Volker Blum]

Hi,

after upgrading the COnfluence DC instance to 8.5 our customer suffers from a strange behaviour of the tables. The first row underneath the header generated the text in borders with grey background. They act as kind of sorting buttons. clicking on them does the same as the header does. I have no clue where this comes from and how to remove it. I have added a row and any empty field shows the buttons already. Changing header etc all of this doesn´t help. I am cunfused. Could someone give me a hint, hoiw to solve this?

This is how it looks in view mode:

This is how it looks in edit mode: (it is capsuled in an excerpt macro, but that was the same in the previous version and did not affect the table)

Thanks for any help and kind regards

Hi @Volker Blum , 

Do you mind sharing the storage format with us to diagnose the issue?

Hi @Volker Blum

I cannot reproduce this issue. Looks like it's version specific. Upgrade confluence might fix it.

Cheers,

Zac, put that contents inside the expand macro to reproduce

[Zac Xu]

Hi @Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ 

I put it inside expand and excerpt and both. None of them could reproduce the issue with storage format provided. 

[Alex Medved _ConfiForms_ · Accepted solution]

This looks like this bug https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-56489

That was almost fixed (kind of) in 8.5.5

Hi Alex,

thanks for this link. I will offer the ideas given here to the customer and wait for his decision.

Actually they think about switching to Cloudin the meantime - a very nice solution anyway.

Have a nice weekend.

Cheers Volker
