Hi mary.connor, this is a great question for our support team. They will be able to explain how you can opt-into the new editor.
Best,
Suny
We have HUNDREDS of instances of this misbehaving macro across hundreds of old pages, which our customers now see.
Will our existing pages on old templates be converted automatically for us during the rollout, or is no template conversion needed?
If the latter, how can we speed up rollout of the new editor?

Hi everyone,
This is Sunny from the Confluence team. Thank you for raising this bug to our attention, and my team and I appreciate the details provided to help us reproduce the bug. After investigating further into this bug, this bug is only impacting the old editor, and we're actively rolling out the new editor where this bug doesn't exist in the Code Macro. If you are having issues with this bug, I encourage you to use the new editor as a solution.
Thank you again for all of your feedback around this bug! I will be marking it closed for now.
Sunny
This is still a problem that we see. Is this issue resolved and the new editor rolled out? How to I know if my installation has the new editor?
