Description/Features
This plugin allows users to move a comment (and all its child comments) from one page to another. A move link is added next to the edit and remove links within a comment to allow it to be moved.
Installation
The plugin can be installed from the plugin repository or you can download manually and uploaded in the plugin manager.
To work with Confluence 3.1-3.5.
Usage
If you have permission to remove comments from a page, the Move link will be available within a comment. Clicking this link will open the custom action allowing you to select a new destination page.
|
|
You can enter the destination page title on this page. If you want to create a new page using the current comment click the create new page option. The top level comment will then become the content of the page and any child comments will be added to the new page.
The comment moves are actually implemented by deleting the comments of the old pages and recreating them on the new page, so you need to be aware that multiple emails will be sent out of moving a large comment tree.
If there are any links to Confluence content in the comments being moved. They will be automatically updated to point to the correct space if required. (Please note image links are not currently updated. This is something that isn't supported when moving any page content within Confluence.)

java.lang.NullPointerException at com.atlassian.confluence.util.SelfPageLinkRenamingBean.escapeRegularExpression(SelfPageLinkRenamingBean.java:57)I tried moving both to a page that exists and to a new page, both resulted in the same error.
Any idea why?

com.atlassian.confluence.util.escapeRegularExpression()
where the variable s is null.
Further debugging found that in
com.adaptavist.confluence.movecomment.DefautMoveCommentManager.getUpdatedOutgoingLinks()
The title property of dummyOldPage is the value that is eventually passed into escapeRegularExpression(), but the default value of title in Page is null.
I did a quick hack to change the code to
And I was able to move comments to both existing and new pages after this hack.
Question is, should I raise a ticket in MoveComment to include the hack, or should I raise a ticket in Confluence to check where the string passed into escapeRegularExpression() is null before calling replaceAll()?

Many thanks for reporting this issue to us.
We have in fact addressed this bug but have not been able to make a release as yet. Due to various time constraints and project deadlines, the release has had to be postponed.
We do plan on releasing an update (with this fix) shortly.

Is this plugin no longer supported? I tried downloading manually and from the plugin manager and both failed. If I tried downloading manually, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari all tell me that the link results in too many redirects.
The 'download manually' link above seems to be a dead link.
Thanks,
