Description
If you no longer want to use the add-on and you still have pages using the add-on's macros, then to prevent errors on pages using the macros, remove the macros first. The following will give you some tips on this.
Keep the add-on enabled and licensed until you have removed macro usage
If you already have disabled, uninstalled, or un-subscribed to the add-on, then you will need to temporarily install or enable the add-on. You may need to do a "Try it free" if your license is invalid.
Finding pages using macros
See this answer for how to search for macros. Briefly stated search using something like: macroName: table-plus. This search does not find wiki style references to the macro in plain text macro bodies, so you should also do a text search like: "{table-plus", etc...
Advanced tables has 4 macros: table-plus, csv, attachment-table, and json-table.
Removing the macros
- For the Table Plus macro: copy the body contents outside the macro and then remove the macro.
- For the CSV macro or JSON Table Macro: either remove the macro completely or convert it to a noformat macro to preserve the data without formatting.
- Edit the page
- Edit the macro to go to the macro browser
- Select Select macro (bottom left corner)
- Find and select the noformat macro
- For the Attachment Table macro: remove the macro. The Confluence attachments macro may be an alternative for some cases.
Disabling or Removing the add-on
Note: you need to be a Confluence Administrator to perform these actions
- Select 'Add-ons' from the global 'cog' icon in the header
- Use the filter to search for 'table'
- Expand "Bob Swift Atlassian Add-ons - Advanced Table"
- Click the 'Disable' or 'Uninstall' button
