      Issue Summary

      Confluence task report macro: empty tasks are displayed, and changes to task statuses in edit mode require a couple of manual refreshes in view mode after publishing.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create at least two pages with tasks(add some empty tasks) and task report macro(shows only incomplete ones), also add some headings
      2. Go into edit mode, check one of the tasks then publish the page
      3. It will show an empty task, and it will also show the checked tasks for a while.

      Expected Results

      The task report macro does not display empty tasks, and after publishing, we should see an updated task list.

      Actual Results

      As the screenshot below shows, it shows empty tasks and doesn't update the task report macro immediately.

      Workaround

      Rebuilding the Content index fixes the issue, but it appears again. If we add the below dark feature, it works as expected:

      1. Navigate to <confluence-url>/admin/darkfeatures.action
        • In the Enable dark feature box, add:
          • confluence.task-report.use-database-for-reports
        • Click Submit
