Capable Search
Capable Search shows you where the dates are. Your search results get a "Dates" column, a small count of the dates found on each page. Open a page's side panel and you'll find a "Calendar" section, subtitled "View dates from the page" and badged with the number of dates found. Both work in Capable Suite and in the standalone Calendar app.
#Worth knowing
Both counts can come in low. They only count Confluence's own dates, so dates in Capable Event macros aren't included.
#Where you do it
Task | Where |
|---|---|
Show the dates already on a page as a calendar | Page editor → insert "Calendar (Capable)" (Suite) or "Calendar macro (Capable)" (standalone) |
Add a set of world clocks | Page editor → insert "Clock (Capable)" / "Clock macro (Capable)" |
Add an inline event date to a page | Page editor → insert "Event (Capable)" / "Event macro (Capable)" |
#Settings that affect this
Setting | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
Calendar subscriptions | Confluence settings → Capable (Capable Calendar in the standalone app) → Features | "Let users subscribe to Capable calendars from Google, Apple, or Outlook via a personal iCal feed. Turn off to disable subscriptions for all users." Only appears when the installed app includes the Calendar capability. |
Calendar (global settings tab) | Confluence settings → Capable → Calendar | A card titled "Calendar subscriptions", described as "Personal iCal feed links your users have generated for calendars." It lists the user, calendar, status and created date, with Previous and Next to page through. Non-administrators see a message instead of the list. |
Calendar capability visibility | Space settings → Capable → capability list → Calendar | Auto shows Calendar in the byline where it's relevant. In the Suite, that means only on pages Capable already knows carry dates. Always turns Calendar on for the whole space. Never hides it there. |
#Limits that apply here
Limit | Value | What happens |
|---|---|---|
Pages from search | Result Limit, on the calendar's Pages tab | Dates on pages beyond the limit simply don't appear, and there's no warning. |
Dates saved for search | - | Each page's first date, last date and mentioned users are always saved. Only the list of individual dates is capped. |
Dates found through search | - | These are left out until the calendar has loaded and knows which dates it's showing. |
