Confluence Docs 3.3 : Metadata Summary Macro
This page last changed on Dec 17, 2009 by ggaskell.
The Metadata Summary macro presents a tabulated summary of selected metadata, which has been embedded using the Metadata Macro on any page or blog post in the current Confluence space. The left-most column of the metadata summary shows the name of each page or blog post within current space that contains the selected metadata. Each page or blog post is presented on a single row and is hyperlinked to its appropriate destination page. Each subsequent column represents a unique field within the selected metadata. The value associated with each metadata field on a page or blog post is presented in the appropriate cell of the metadata summary table. For example, the following Metadata Summary macro shows all Metadata macros tagged with the 'test' label in the current space.
Usage with the Macro BrowserTo insert the metadata summary macro into a page using the Macro Browser,
Once you've found the metadata summary macro, click 'insert' to add it to your page. Usage with the Wiki Markup Editor{detailssummary:label=test} This shows a metadata summary based on all Metadata macros in pages or blog posts of the current space, which have been labelled with 'test'. ParametersParameters are options that you can include in Confluence macros to control the content or format of the macro output. The table below lists relevant parameters for this macro. Parameter names are different in the macro browser and in wiki markup. Below we show the macro browser parameter names in bold text, and the equivalent wiki markup parameters in (bracketed) text. If we do not show any parameter name for the wiki markup, then you should leave out the parameter name and simply include the parameter value as the first parameter, immediately after the colon (:).
Another Metadata Macro ExampleThe following Metadata macro example generates the second line in the Metadata Summary macro (above).
