  • [ ] Have access to page history for rollback if needed

  • [ ] Noted pages with complex formulas for manual verification

  • [ ] Scheduled migration during low-traffic period (for bulk migrations)

  • [ ] Browser console is open for monitoring progress/errors


📋 Post-Migration Verification

After migration, verify the following:

  • [ ] Latex formulas render correctly

  • [ ] Parameters (font size, color, alignment) are preserved

  • [ ] Equation numbering (for mathblock) works as expected

  • [ ] Page version history shows migration entry

  • [ ] No console errors related to macro rendering

🚀 Best Practices

1. Test First

Always test migration on a single, non-critical page before bulk migration.

2. Backup Content

While Confluence maintains version history, consider exporting important spaces before migration.

3. Communicate Changes

Inform your team before performing large-scale migrations to avoid confusion.

4. Monitor Progress

Keep browser console open during migrations to catch errors early.

5. Verify Rendering

Spot-check migrated pages to ensure formulas render correctly.

6. Plan for Downtime

For large spaces (>100 pages), plan migration during off-hours to minimize impact.

7. Document Custom Configurations

Note any custom macro configurations before migration for reference.


📝 Known Issues

  • Migration is limited to supported macros only (see limitations document)

  • Large-scale migrations (>100 pages) may take time due to sequential processing

  • Some parameter mappings may not be 1:1 (see limitations document)
