This macro supplies additional document properties to those defined by the Document Properties Marker Macro or the Document Properties Supplier Macro.

 

It is very important to note that the property values are used in the Lucene index.

Therefore property values must not contain sensitive (secret) information!

If a page is accessible for a user, all properties of that page will also be accessible for that user.

Using this macro makes it easier to include properties imported from remote systems.

The body may list the names of properties (comma-separated) that are actually displayed by this macro. Note that this selection has no effect on the properties that are imported.

Properties

Page

The reference to the page the attachment is located.

Attachment

The mandatory name of the referenced attachment.

Currently only Java Properties files with file name extension properties are supported.

Override

If checked information passed from the space configuration will be overridden by this macro.

Note that every property will be overridden.

Hide

If checked the table containing the properties will not be rendered.

For some pages the metadata is irrelevant to the reader or may be rendered by other means. In this case set this flag to true.

 

The value may be set by the Space Property hide-metadata. If you want to override this, use Override.

Render As

Select a rendering mode for the document properties.

The following values are valid:

ValueDescription
table

The properties are rendered in a table. The first column is the property key, the second the property value. Controls are not rendered, since they are not important to the reader.

definition listThe properties are rendered as a definition list. The property key key is the definition term, the property value the definition value.
horizontal tableThe properties are rendered with a heading (property key) in the first and the data (property value) in the second row. Available since version 6.0.4.
 

The value may be set by the Space Property render-metadata-as. If you want to override this, use Override.

CSS Class

This controls the formatting of the table. The CSS class applied to the table or definition list.

Details

Length of Property Values

The value of a property is stored in the database as an unlimited string (StringLength.UNLIMITED). It depends on the database of the Confluence installation how large this actually is.

Keep in mind that most clients assume that these values are typically small. The values are also cached for fast access.
