Placeholder Marker Information
There are some markers you should not use because they are part of the Confluence functions and can result in different behavior or can be annoying while typing the new placeholder.
Character | Example how NOT to use custom marker | Function / Reason |
|---|---|---|
/ | /Placeholder/ | Open Macro Search |
_ | _placeholder_ | Makes placeholder italic → placeholder |
* | *placeholder* | Makes placeholder italic → placeholder |
__ | __placeholder__ | Makes placeholder bold → placeholder |
** | **placeholder** | Makes placeholder bold → placeholder |
: | :placeholder: | : opens emoticon search |
@ | @placeholder@ | @ Mention Confluence Users |
~~ | ~~placeholder~~ | Makes a strikethrough → |
` | `placeholder` | Makes a code block → |
< | <placeholder< | Parsed as HTML |
In addition to that, there is a set of characters, which are not supported in labels, and would therefore make it unable to use placeholders in labels.
Set of Characters | Problem |
|---|---|
(:, ;, ,, ., , ?, &, [, ], (, ), #, ^, *, @, !, ' ' - spaces ). | throws GraphQL error: com.atlassian.confluence.api.service.exceptions.BadRequestException: Could not add labels to content with id ContentId{id=contentid} |
