You can search for pages with Talk discussions using the Confluence Search:
| Table of Contents | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Confluence Search Box in the header
Use the Confluence Search Box in the header to enter your query.
Starting from Talk version 2.1.0, you can search talks by text and commenters. To search by text, use the talk keyword:
talk:"do that ASAP" |
To search by commenter, use the talkUser keyword and a commenter's user name or full name:
talkUser:"User Name" |
Starting from Talk version 2.2.3, date range search is also available. To search for talks updated within a certain date range, use the talkUpdated keyword. The date stamps are in numeric 'yyyymmdd' format:
talkUpdated:[20141201 TO 20150201] |
Besides, with the help of Searching for macros of Confluence Search Syntax, you can search Confluence pages for anywhere Talk macro is used. To do that, use the query:
macroName:talk |
Use the standard Confluence Search field on the top bar to enter your query.
The search queries syntax is the following:
| Query | Search |
|---|
| Examples | ||
|---|---|---|
macroName:talk | Find all Confluence pages with at least one Talk macro | |
talk:"some text" |
| By text in discussions | talk:release talk:"do that ASAP" |
talkUser:"User Name" |
| By commenter (by user name, first name, last name or full name) | talkUser:asmith talkUser:Alex talkUser:Smith talkUser:"Alex Smith" |
talkUpdated:[yyyymmdd TO |
| By talk update date range | talkUpdated:[20141201 TO 20150201] | |
macroName:talk | For Talk macro | macroName:talk |
| By several terms | talk:"do that ASAP" AND talkUpdated:[20141201 TO 20150201] talk:change OR talk:modify talkUser:asmith NOT talkUser:jclarks |
