Filter

Filters let you narrow down which blog posts to show.

  • Simple lets you filter by label, space and author.

  • Select Advanced to filter with CQL.

Filter by label
Available when Filter is set to Basic.

Enter a label to include only blog posts with that label. Add a dash ( - ) in front of a label to exclude its blog posts. Separate multiple labels with commas.

Filter by space
Available when Filter is set to Basic.

To show blog posts from the current space, leave this field empty.

To show blog posts from another space or from multiple spaces, add space keys separated with commas. Exclude a space key by adding a dash ( - ) in front of it.

Filter by author
Available when Filter is set to Basic.

Enter a creator’s Account ID to include their blog posts. A user’s Account ID can be found in the URL of their Atlassian profile. For example, in a URL ending with wiki/people/62f636d425abc07e51c8b330, the bold string of letters and numbers is the user’s Account ID.

Add a dash ( - ) in front of a Account ID to exclude that user’s activity. Separate multiple IDs with commas.

To show only blog posts created by the user viewing the page, enter $userid.

Filter with CQL
Available when Filter is set to Advanced.

Use CQL to show specific blog posts. Use "type = blogpost". Make the filter dynamic with text variables.

For example, show blog posts that the user added:

type = blogpost AND creator = $username ORDER BY created DESC

Images

The module shows an image from the blog post (if available) in a 4:3 portrait (vertical) format. We recommend using images that are at least 800x600 pixels.

Description

By default, the module shows the blog post’s first 250 characters.
