How do I center text within a table cell in Confluence 5?

[Jennifer Peterson]

I have a table and would like to center text in 2 of its columns. Can't see any alignment icons on the toolbar...thanks in advance for the help!

[Jennifer Peterson]

Have confluence 3.5. Using HTML to center my text within a table, and it works.

[Jennifer Peterson]

Turns out I have version 3.5 and there is no way to center text within a table cell

Create {div} macro, write content in it.
Click 'Div' element and then select 'Edit'.
Find option 'Align' and choose 'Center'. Done

[Jennifer Peterson]

From looking through the older confluence documentation, it appears I am using Confluence 3.5x, and the section on working with tables does not show how to center text in a column. Is it possible they did not support this basic functionality in my version??

You are definitely in an older version with that 2007 copyright notice...

Hi Jennifer,

did you try

{center} your text {center} ?

Cheers

[Jennifer Peterson]

Thanks for trying Thomas. But I get an error for unknown macro: {center}

[Thomas Schlegel]

Hi Jennifer,

I forgot: the center-macro is part of adaptavist's Content Formatting Macro Plugin

It's a free plugin, but be careful to install and try a version that is appropriate to your (quite old) Confluence Version.

Cheers

Just scroll the page all the way down. The version should be on the footer.

[Jennifer Peterson]

Hmmm. I was told it was version 5, but don't know that for certain. How can I check which version is being used for my Wiki page?

[Ken Trough]

I have the same toolbar options showing as Jeison.

Your editing options are significantly different. Are you certain you are using Confluence 5? It looks like an older version.

[Jeison]

Hi Jennifer,

From my Confluence 5 toolbar I can see the alignment buttons, are they missing from yours?

Cheers,

[Jennifer Peterson]

this is what mine looks like, and it doesn't have those options you showed above.

this must be a 3.x - Version since there is a Wiki-Markup tab
