New and Noteworthy
External Link Macro
The External Link Macro now allows to specify absolute URLs with the Page parameter. With this enhancement links can be added to arbitrary external resources. For instance users could reference mail on their mail servers using the outlook protocol.
With this release the macro also provides some additional parameters to control how the HTML anchor element is rendering the link:
- ID
- CSS Classes
- Styles
- Target
Paste URL Autocomplete Documents
The Autocomplete for documents now allows to paste an URL. The Autocomplete service will automatically convert the URL to the appropriate parameter value.
Note that the URL will be passed through the configured constraints. Only URLs passing the constraints test will be added.
Per default only documents on the delegate space closure will be accepted. In case any URL on Confluence should be valid, expand the space closure or use the value @all
.
