Description

Name

(tick)

Specify a name for your MultiExcerpt content.

Fallback permission handling

(error)

The "Fallback permission handling" parameter in the MultiExcerpt macros is used to provide a fallback permission check in some scenarios such as exposing Confluence content in Jira Service Desk (JSD).

A system user, a.k.a. "app user", exists for 3rd party apps like the MultiExcerpt app. 

When "Fallback permission handling" is enabled for a MultiExcerpt then, ONLY for situations where the user cannot be found, the app user will be used to access the excerpted content when a MultiExcerpt Include macro requests it.

An example of a scenario where it could be necessary to enable it is when using a MultiExcerpt Include on a page that is exposed on Jira Service Desk (JSD).  Due to Atlassian bugs, users who are not in your basic profile in JSD will be unable to see content that is included via a MultiExcerpt Include.

Hidden

(error)

When the page is published, this option allows you to hide the MultiExcerpt content. 
Check this box if you only want the MultiExcerpt content to appear when the page is in edit mode.
