Capable recognises 3 macros from Approvals for Confluence (AppFox). 1 of them convert, and 2 are detected and reported without being changed.

A reported-only macro is left exactly as it is on the page. It is counted so you can see how much of it you have, and decide what to do about it, but nothing is rewritten.

Capable Approval

Converted

Unusually, this migrator does not modify page content. It reads the approval state stored against each page and recreates it in Capable, leaving the page body completely untouched. Pages are found by looking for the vendor's stored approval property rather than by searching for a macro.

#Detected but not converted

These are found and counted so the report is honest about what is on your pages. They stay exactly as they are.

State, not content. That is why it is careful.
