Issue Summary
We have observed an issue with the way nested macros are rendered in Confluence Cloud when using the User Profile macro inside the Page Properties macro which is then surfaced while Page Properties Report macro
Steps to Reproduce
- Create a Confluence page.
- Insert a Page Properties macro.
- Inside the Page Properties table, insert a User Profile macro in one of the cells (e.g., to display assignee/owner details).
- Create or open another page.
- Insert a Page Properties Report macro and configure it to include the page created in step 1.
When the Page Properties Report macro renders the data, the content of the nested User Profile macro is displayed within a constrained area with its own individual horizontal scroll bar. This results in:
- A visually awkward layout inside the Page Properties Report table.
- Reduced readability of the User Profile information.
- Inconsistent presentation compared to viewing the same User Profile macro directly on the source page (outside of the report).
Expected Results
When the User Profile macro is nested within Page Properties and surfaced via the Page Properties Report macro:
- The User Profile content should render cleanly without an individual horizontal scroll bar where possible.
- The layout should respect the table width/column width but still display the User Profile information in a readable, non-scrollable format (e.g., wrapping or responsive layout).
- The overall Page Properties Report table should remain usable and consistent in appearance across different pages.
Actual Results
When the User Profile macro is nested inside a Page Properties macro, and the page is then surfaced via a Page Properties Report macro:
- The User Profile macro content is rendered within a constrained frame inside the Page Properties Report table cell.
- This frame introduces its own horizontal scroll bar specifically for the User Profile content.
- As a result, the user has to scroll horizontally inside that cell to view all the information from the User Profile macro, instead of seeing it fully and cleanly displayed.
- This makes the Page Properties Report harder to read and visually inconsistent compared to viewing the same User Profile macro directly on the source page.
Workaround
Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
