In this release:
Jira issue table snapshots - part 2
The last preview release of WikiTraccs did not consider all Jira issue tables for transformation. This has been extended.
@-mention issues - part 2
There was a lingering user cache corruption issue that affected user mentions and could be triggered when switching WikiTraccs releases. This would make user mentions to be displayed as "User {{ID}}" instead of the user name.
I could finally identify and fix the root cause. Thank you Kees for providing me with valuable information. This is self-healing. Broken cache entries will be identified and purged.
Changes to inline images in lists
Microsoft is currently upgrading the technological basis of the text editor web part and breaks certain layouts in the process, but only when you edit pages.
Read about the background here:
With this release WikiTraccs changes the way bullet point lists and numbered lists with images are transformed.
Assume a page that has this content:
1. first point
2. second point with image
<image>
3. third point
Now when editing such a page SharePoint's auto-upgrade kicks in and modifies the content to look like this:
1. first point
<image> 1. second point with image
2. third point
See how the layout and list numbering is screwed up?
Since I don't expect Microsoft to do anything about this WikiTraccs now separates the text content and the images, like so:
🚧 Note: Some images were moved beneath the list as SharePoint does not support images in lists
1. first point
2. second point with image
🚧 See image 1.1
3. third point<image>
🚧 Image 1.1 (moved)
This seemed like the only possible thing to do that doesn't look too bad. Please let me know if you have better ideas. I just want to emphasize that SharePoint does not allow images to be placed in lists anymore. This is a regression in my books, but maybe it will be possible again in some future.
This change is active as of this release and affects newly migrated pages.

In this release:
Jira issue table snapshots
WikiTraccs now takes a snapshot of Jira issue tables and puts this snapshot into the SharePoint page. The snapshot shows the content you would see when opening the page in Confluence. If the table cannot show all issues of the underlying query, a "show more link" will be added below the table. This follows the logic of Confluence.
Note: So far WikiTraccs already handled links to single Jira issues. Those were converted to hyperlinks pointing to the issue in Jira.
This is a first shot and I'm open for feedback. Does it make sense and where can it be improved? At least it seams better than a plain placeholder text, although the placeholder contained the JQL query. Should the JQL query go back into the pages? Let me know in the discussions.
@-mention issues
I got isolated reports about @-mentions not being transformed to the users's display name, but to the Confluence user key (like "User {{long-user-key-here}}"). So far I have not been able to reproduce this, but this release contains some caching improvements that might help.

WikiTraccs v1.9.0
WikiTraccs - Confluence to SharePoint Migration Tool
📥 DOWNLOAD LATEST RELEASE
📖 GENERAL QUICK START GUIDE ↗️
📖 HOW TO UPDATE ↗️
In this release:
Storing the raw Confluence page contents in SharePoint
The raw storage format XML (background) of migrated Confluence pages is now being stored in a SharePoint document library Confluence Content Snapshots (WikiTraccs). You can find this library in the WikiTraccs site, it will be automatically created with your next migration.
The raw page content can help adjusting pages later on, e.g. when new SharePoint web parts become available, and allow the development of client add-ons that conduct additional tasks.
Refer to this sample PowerShell script on how to get the storage format XML for a migrated page: get-confluence-snapshots.
Comments migration
Footer comments can now be migrated and will become content of the migrated page (in case of multiple migrated translations, they will be added to the main page). This is the first approach to tackle #15 (please chime in if you have ideas or feedback).
Notes regarding comments migration:
- opt-in; you can enable comment migration in the settings, default is off
- for now this covers footer comments, not inline comments
- the raw storage format XML for comments is stored with the page's in the Confluence Content Snapshots (WikiTraccs) list; this also includes inline comments, including resolved ones; you might access those comments there, if you need
- migrating comments could bring pages to the maximum size of ~2MB (technical limitation of SharePoint); switch comment migration off if you experience errors
Other changes
- new: adding a button to quickly jump to the WikiTraccs.GUI config file folder (to back it up or reset it)
- improved: the WikiTraccs.GUI settings now properly initialize with the WikiTraccs.Console default migration settings, when being opened for the first time (e.g. blog post migration is on by default)
- improved: adding hidden excerpt macros to the default Macro Ignore List
- improved: the result of the Show Config as Text option is now more compatible with the
appsettings.jsonformat, that is used to configure WikiTraccs.Console

WikiTraccs v1.8.4 (Preview Release)
WikiTraccs - Confluence to SharePoint Migration Tool
📖 GENERAL QUICK START GUIDE ↗️
📖 HOW TO UPDATE ↗️
In this release:
Confluence Query Language (CQL) and Speed
- new: select source pages via CQL query - see the updated documentation: Confluence Space Inventory
- improved: cross-page linking to spaces, pages, and attachments has some edge-cases removed
- improved: page creation and file upload speed increased up to 42%
Enabling CQL queries required changes to the page selection logic. This Preview Release lacks polishing with regard to:
- labels/logs reading "space" instead of "CQL selector"
- documentation needs to be updated to reflect that CQL selectors are an alternative to whole-space selectors
Actual page content migration should be unaffected. Please report any other issues you encounter.

WikiTraccs v1.7.1 (Update Mode Preview)
WikiTraccs - Confluence to SharePoint Migration Tool
📖 GENERAL QUICK START GUIDE ↗️
📖 HOW TO UPDATE ↗️
In this release:
New Feature: Update Mode a.k.a. Delta Migrations
With this release it is possible to update previously migrated and now outdated pages in SharePoint. Updating outdated pages might be necessary when users keep editing pages in Confluence that have already been migrated to SharePoint.
You can read everything about this new feature here: Updating previously migrated pages.
WikiTraccs already detects outdated SharePoint pages and logs them to one of its progress log files. With this release you can mark pages you want to update and feed the file right back to WikiTraccs. WikiTraccs will then migrate the marked pages again, overwriting the stale SharePoint pages.
BREAKING CHANGE: This release changes the format of the 25- progress log file. See Monitoring Confluence to SharePoint Page Migration Progress for documentation of the progress log files.
There are some caveats when it comes to renaming already migrated pages in Confluence, that are highlighted in the documentation as well.
Please give it a try and leave feedback whether this is useful for you or not, and which adjustments you would like to see.
