Comala Workflows 5.8.4    Comala Workflows 5.8.4 is a maintenance release Feature Tour  |  Installation  |  Update / Change  |  Support Updates and Bug fixes The behaviour of the workflow page dialog has changed.  It will now not close automatically after a set time, users will need to click outside the drop down to close it.  In other UI related updates we have resolved some issues that were affecting IE 11 browser. Fixed some issues with value reference resolution; some user based value references   ( @author@, @poster@, @creator@, @modifier@)  will no longer cause an error if the user is removed, also a bug introduced in the 5.8 release around the treatment of empty value reference values has been fixed. Character encoding fixes; Page workflows could not be created if the space name contained special characters.  We've also fixed an issue that prevented the get-metadata macro from rendering correctly on pages with a title containing a "/" character. Fixed an issue where empty parameters were causing Confluence's Audit Log to throw errors. Fixed an issue where queued actions on a blog post were failing .
