How do I install this add-on?You can install it with the help of Universal Plugin Manager or manually. What versions of Atlassian Confluence are supported?Table Filter supports Confluence 4.3 and higher. How does the plugin filter the data in tables?When table cells are compared, all leading/trailing spaces are not taken into consideration, multiple spaces are handled as one space, images and fonts are also ignored. Can I use the plugin for a table with merged cells?Yes, you can. Can I filter an already existing table?Yes. Paste it inside the Table Filter macro in the Edit mode. Can I use the filter for a table generated by another macro?Yes. If you experience any problems with that, let us know. How can I export a unfiltered table to PDF/Word?
How are values sorted in drop-down lists?In ascending order (A-Z then 0-9). Is it possible to change the sorting order in drop-down lists?Unfortunately, no.
