How to use the Page Tree Search Macro with Scroll Versions?

When using the Page Tree Search Macro in a Scroll Versions space, every Scroll version of a page applying to the search query results in an own hit (e.g., mypage, .mypage myv1, .mypage myv2, .mypage myv3). I would like to restrict the search to a specific Scroll version or the "Currently published" version since we publish in the same space.

To exclude a specific version I can extend the query with '-title:"<version name>"', e. g. '-title:"v1"', since the internal Confluence page titles end with the Scroll version name. Unfortunately it seems NOT to be possible to use wildcards in <version name> to cover more than one version name, e.g. '-title:"myv*"'. Due to the fact that we have currently ca. 15 versions growing once per month explicitly excluding all versions besides the wanted one is very unhandy.

Hi Matthias,

unfortunately that's a known limitation which is already tracked here: https://k15t.jira.com/browse/VSN-218

As versioned pages are saved as "normal" Confluence pages, we need to overwrite the existing search functionality to change the current behavior, which is a very complex and extensive change.

So I can't give you an ETA when this behavior will be changed.

Best,Nils
