Organizing pages and files

  1. Clicking the yellow Create button will automatically create a new standard wiki page. Structurally, the new page will be placed under the page that you're viewing when you hit Create. If you're on the homepage for your space, the new page will be directly off the home page.
    1. To create another type of page, click the . . . ellipses next to Create. Your options for standard templates include things like Meeting Notes, How-to article, and File list.
      (warning) for meeting notes, articles, and particularly for files - carefully choosing where the landing pages are in the hierarchy can provide a "directory-like" experience.
  2. If you want your new page to be in a different part of the space you can change the location by clicking the page structure icon (2) and then typing in the name (title) of the page that you'd like to be the parent of the new page.
  3. Include tags if so desired to help search
  4. Set permissions for your page - see Permissions and restrictions for more info

Space admins can reorder and restructure space pages at any time in the Space Tools...Content Tools...Reorder pages


Navigation

Confluence automatically creates navigation on the Sidebar . The order of links in the sidebar (including removing links) can be changed from the Space Tools menu.

you can add navigation to individual pages by adding a macro to the page

  • Navigate within a page (for a particularly long, or structured page) by using the Table of Contents macro. This macro uses the built in Header formatting to detect the sections of your page
    This example shows the ToC for this page:



  • Create a navigation for the entire space with the Page Tree macro
