Mike: I’ve not had a chance to check and update this for Confluence 3.1 as yet — we’re still running 3.0.2. I’ll post an update and drop you a line when I do.

Hi – I get the following error:

Error formatting macro: list-attachments: com.atlassian.core.exception.InfrastructureException: Error occurred rendering template content

Running Confluence 3.1.1. Any ideas?

Thanks

Mike

Brad: I think this is the same problem you’d have with for example updating themes when the base functionality changes.

Luckily, this user macro is very easy to update if the base functionality changes. It is based on altering a stripping most of the functionality from
/confluence/pages/viewattachments.vm

Nice work, David. This could be a nice enhancement when you don’t want that huge block stretching across your full page.

My own worry about user macros is keeping them up to date with any other changes to the base confluence functionality. This is especially the case if you’re wrapping other macros. I ran into this problem with my Related Content User Macro (http://confluence.atlassian.com/x/LCOyCg).

Do you have any policies you use when building user macros?
