    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      This feature is important for the requirements blueprint:

      People viewing the requirements index page will want to do things like:

      • Show me just the requirements for Confluence 5.0
      • show me just the requirements where Sherif is the owner and the status is draft.

      This could be done via AJAX search (see example at http://screencast.com/t/EIz2v1bugGdq). Another option is to do via dropdown filters in the table heading (example at http://screencast.com/t/0Me4YlL0oI)

            [CONFSERVER-29421] Allow filtering on rows within the view mode of the page properties macro

            As a long time Confluence user I used to organise all of the company's page using page properties and labels.
            Although it is a working solution, I had discovered it is not robust enough and missing some essential capabilities.

            This is why we have created Metadata for Confluence Cloud !
            It breaks the limitations of labels and page properties for organising pages, lets you configure your own fields with various types, input and query them.
            Additionally, it includes a few macros to integrate the metadata inside the page.

            Give it a try with a free trial

            Hi

            We have the "Table Filter and Charts" plugin. I added the Table Filter on a page with the Page properties report inside. But it doesn't filter (when I just put a simple table inside, it does filter as expected). Is there something I'm doing wrong?

            Honestly i perfectly understand Michael Roff's reaction. 

            There is a better commercial plugin that does it a lot better.  
            But I find being able to filter on the contents of the page properties one of the most important reasons of existence for this plugin.   

            I would therefor hope that Atlassian either implements this obvious necessity or removes the plugin entirely so that this journey is a lot more intuitive and less frustrating.

            I have bitten the bullet and am now using "Table Filters & Charts" plugin.  It's money well spent.

            Very powerful filtering options which have fulfilled all my needs (which are many and varied).

            The charts look good too.  If you have the budget, you won't be sorry.

            Any update on this? We are very keen to see this addition.

            Just tested 5.9.9 and unfortunately the filters in the page properties macro aren't yet powerful enough to provide the filtering that I suspect most of the watchers of this ticket are looking for.

            Hello - is this filter type available now for me to add to the Page Properties Macro?

            Hey Guys, is this now available or still in development?

            I've created a fork of the plugin which includes macro level filtering for text values and Status macro values. Please feel free to offer suggestions, https://bitbucket.org/michalmr/confluence-masterdetail-plugin/commits/2b064a0f3c606c0b7e27f5db0c836f5676300b49.
