Difference between compact and full width layout.

As seen in the macro configuration section, there are two layouts

• Compact (MARKETING-8): the macro only shows icon, key, description and status. Furthermore it's displayed withing flowing text
• Full width (MARKETING-7, MARKETING-1): the macro shows additional fields, such as assignee, reporter and due date. The macro is not displayed inline and there can't be text left or right on the same line.

Macros with full width layout can expand their body to show the description.

Macros with full width layout can be expanded to show the issue description.

Specify parameters for the form macro.

With the "Form Macro" you can add an issue creation form to any page.

You have to specify

• a Jira project and
• the issue type

You may also configure if an issue link should be established for newly created issues.

Currently only one Form Macro per page is allowed!

This is the "Form Macro" after saving the page.

This can be used to give users the possibility to ask for help or report a bug.

• You can create an issue from text by selecting the desired text.
• A popup will appear (inline comment, "Issue Manager create issue" and "Jira integration create issue")
• Click on the second icon

• A dialog will appear
• The selected text will be set as issue summary
• Add additional information and click "create"

The issue was created and will be shown after a page reload

The issue is inserted after the selected text

• You'll get a message saying that the issue was successfully created
• After reloading the page, the issue macro is shown after the previously selected text

A fast and simple way to add an issues from every page.

The "Issue Manager" adds a button to the content navigation to create issues.

Please note that this functionality won't add a macro to the current page and will not create an issue link.
