Thanks for replying, Roger but that doesn't apply to my situation. The issue is not that the reviewer left the company (which is what the Central help file you linked to discusses). The issue is that the author who sent the topic out for review is no longer with the company. So, I am still in the sa...

Hi all - New situation - my team and I just ran across a topic that was sent for review over a year ago by an author who is not longer with us. Is there a way that I can close that topic either via Flare or Central to be able to remove the "This topic has been sent for review on MadCap Central....

Rob -

GRRR!!!! My update post that I wrote earlier didn't post!

I figured that out. That's what happens when trying to fix inherited problems. Once I added the body frame everything fell into place.

Thanks to the input!

Eric

Didn't realize that the title page template I was using (I inherited) didn't have a body frame located somewhere on the template. Added one and solved issue.

Thanks, Rob. I guess I should have been more detailed in my post. :shock: Yup - I've tried all the troubleshooting with the TOC entry/auto-end settings/etc. I've reached out to Madcap support at this point to see what they have to say. Just to clarify - the "extra" page is occurring when I...

Hello all - Ok - I had this issue several year ago however I cannot remember how I solved it and I don't have the time right now to spend trying to figure it out. :D Hoping that the collective propeller hive mind can help. I created a page layout that contains a title page (T) and a normal page (N)....

Thanks for the reply, Dave.

Turns out it was just user error. I wasn't applying the Revision_Record.flmsp (yup - I mistyped it in my original post) to the topic correctly. Been a while since I've had to use these regularly so I just missed a step. Appreciate the help.

Hi all - Hope someone can help. I created a page template (Revision_Record.htm) in my main/global project where all styles/page layouts etc. are stored. In a new project, I imported the main project. Created a new topic. Opened topic properties to apply the above page template but it does not show i...

Welcome to the forums Muralisk. Am I right in assuming your H1 and H2 number correctly? My guess (if I am wrong hopefully someone will correct me) is that in this section for H3: h3 { mc-auto-number-offset: 12mm; mc-auto-number-format: '{chapnum}.{n}.{n+}'; mc-auto-number-position: inside-head; } th...

Hello, I've spent some time looking for posts/resources on importing Flare topics/help into a WordPress environment. The few posts/articles I've found are from 2009/2014 etc. and they discuss working with WebHelp (which is being deprecated by MadCap). Is there anyone out there who has any current ex...

Thanks for the insight, Dave. Will look more into the process. Appreciate your time.

Have seen a few post on field level help and came across this post in one of the threads: https://www.madcapsoftware.com/blog/using-flare-to-build-field-level-context-sensitive-help/?unapproved=106571&moderation-hash=d6c2c938a88c355fe07d57f6b1d0b04f#comment-106571 It's great and has much of the ...

Hi David - If I am reading your question correctly you should be able to do the following: -with the image open in Capture right click the image and open "File Properties" -from within the File Properties window, select "Appearance" -in the appearance pane you should be able to a...

Am also wondering if there is an issue here. Have been using Central regularly for the past 6 months or so. Out of several topics that I currently have out for review, one topic is not showing images (getting the "loading" message as mentioned in the above posts). This topic was just creat...

Am working with importing Confluence space(s) into Flare. Am running into this error: "Confluence importing to Flare Error "Unable to import page with ID: viewpage." Anyone with thoughts on the cause? I can't seem to find anything Google or otherwise. Thanks for your help in advance. ...

Philip Heron wrote:Select the page(s) you want to import then in the same dialog choose Optional>Advanced Options, and there is a checkbox to import resources.

Thanks for the reply, Philip. I did have that box checked but still no images.

Anyone other thoughts on the matter? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Am just working for the first time with Confluence imports. Ran through the import with not problems except one. All files imported fine but the import failed to bring in the image files. Anyone else run into this issue and have a suggestion as to the cause and/or a solution? Thanks in advance. Eric

Thanks for the input. I had just moved a significant number of files around as per our dev teams request for a new folder structure so that appears to have been the issue. Have not run into the message again now at all.

Hi all - Hoping someone here might be able to shed some light on this. I started receiving the following "errors" in the messages window in one of my projects yesterday and was hoping someone could give me an idea a what it means: Background:System.InvalidOperationException: Sequence conta...

Alicia,

Would you please pm me in regards to said position in Plano?

Thanks

Eric

Hope someone here might know if this is possible. When publishing my HTML5 help system I want to be able to (if possible) create an output where the help file package comes out as a zipped folder. As of now I build/publish then manually go to the files and create a .zip package to share with dev. Is...

If I understand what you are looking for this should help. In Flare, 1. Click the Analysis tab. 2. Click the Links button and select "Boken Links" 3. In the broken links window that appears click the "Export Data to CSV file" button at the top of the broken links window/tab. That...

Thanks much. I had a feeling that I would end of having to reach out to MadCap directly. Appreciate the reply.
