What are “Gliffy” diagrams?
Gliffy.com is a commercial company that has developed software for building diagrams on the web. They also developed a Confluence plugin, which was installed on the Bamboo wiki in May 2009. Check out the company’s website for more info. The Gliffy macro – which is the way a Gliffy diagram is included on a wiki page – is described in the “Notation Help” guide available when editing in Wiki Markup mode. While we’re on the topic, here is a step-by-step guide for exporting and importing Gliffy diagrams from one Confluence wiki instance to another (thanks to the Kuali Student team for providing this to their Bamboo colleagues): • From the page where the original Gliffy illustration is located, go to the attachments tab • Download the attached Gliffy file (it will want to save itself with an XML extension; that’s fine) • Rename the Gliffy file (e.g. “My Original Gliffy”) with no extension (if you want a second copy on the same page, save it with a new name and no extension) • Upload that new
