Pages are the main building blocks of the wiki. You will use pages to organize your content into lower-level groups. You should create a new page whenever you want to create a whole new category of content or discussion, if you want to add a set of related content that makes sense to group together in one place, or if you want the content to be accompanied by a longer description and it would take what feels like too much space on an existing page. Once a page exists, you must link to your page from at least one other page so that people can find it. Then you can link to it from as many other pages as you would like as well.

Adding a New Page

  1. Select 'Create' in the Confluence header, as shown above

  6. Enter a name (title) for your page. This is how it will be referred to from other pages.

  7. By default, Confluence will add the new page as a child of the page you are viewing. View the "breadcrumbs" under the Confluence header for your page location. If you need to move the new page to a different space or a different parent, you can edit the 'Location'.
  8. Enter content for your page using the Rich Text editor box below the title. You will see some buttons at the top of the box that look like buttons in Word or other office applications at the top of this area. Use the Bold, Italic and Underline buttons as you would with any document. Use the format drop down menu to create sections of the page. Use bullets and numbers for lists. You can even insert images, select text color, and add links (described below).
  9. Click 'Preview' if you want to see a preview of what the page will look like before saving it.
