[CONFSERVER-25791] Add "Popular" tab to the Recently Updated Dashboard Macro
+1 to integrate the Most Popular Pages to the Recently Updated Dashboard Macro.
We use the Custom Dashboard AddOn to display any page as a dashboard, ie. without the left space navigation & have a group-based scheme to have different dashboards for different user groups (Beginner/Reader Only, Standard, Advanced, Individual, Admin). Integrating the most popular pages gives us more room for other components.
We would also like to be able to insert Popular by itself just as we do favorites or other options.

added a comment - We really need this too. Same issue as Stefan and Broadcom Support.

added a comment - I think the dashboard is just an unnecessary hassle. Please make all the dashboard components available as macros such that users can easily build their own dashboard and utilize the same information.

added a comment - We need this too. We use a page in a space as the dashboard. The global.vm just does an include of that page. The $mode variable used by the recently-updated-dashboard macro cannot be manually overridden, so we can't see "Popular" on our dashboard.
Why is it important to manage the dashboard as a page in a space? Version history. Easily customized layout. Can be edited by admins for that space, not just confluence-administrators. Can be editing in the Confluence native editor. Can be backed up by space export. Soooo, lots of reasons.
Filtering popular by space would be nice to have, but is not required for the specified use case.

Filtering popular by space would be nice to have, but is not required for the specified use case. This wasn't done because the popular stream cannot be filtered by space (yet). I've filed an issue for this: CONF-26272

added a comment - The use case is simple. The standard dashboard delivers a stream of popular content including the number of likes and the number of comments. Without using the standard dashboard you cannot see this information. So when there is a use case for Confluence's standard dashboard, there should be a use case for sites not using the standard dashboard as well.
