Steps to reproduce

1. Create a page template in Confluence.

2. Insert an Include+ or Excerpt Include+ macro.

3. Save the template.

4. Try edit the template again.

Expected result

The macros does not work, but the template can be edited.

Actual result

The template cannot be updated and the macros shows error such as:

Workaround

The workaround involves removing the problematic macro. This should restore your ability to work with the templates again.

To address this issue, you can follow these steps:

1. Temporarily disable Scroll Versions and/or Scroll Translations, along with their bundled app Scroll Platform in the app manager. Ensure that no one is actively working in any Scroll Versions or Scroll Translations managed spaces during this period.

2. Edit the template where the macro is located and remove it.

3. Once you've removed the macro, re-enable the apps.
