How do I select multiple rows in a table in confluence??

[J Rose]

I have read several posts about garbing blue boxes at the front of each row but I don't see these on my table.  I can only perform actions on one row at a time which is killing me.

Hi @J Rose,

If you want to reorder table rows and columns via drag and drop in Confluence on DC, you might want to have a look at plugins like our Inline Table Editing app: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/1217271

I work for a big company and I would assume that if we don't already have this I can't add it.  Seems crazy I would have to pay to select say 50 rows in a table at one time so I can delete them.

If it's only about deleting a number of rows in Confluence Data Center, you should be able to select them in edit mode and hit "Delete row" like so:

If you want those rows to remain empty, you would simply press backspace on your keyboard.

Hi @J Rose and welcome to the Community,

looking at your screenshot you are still working with the Data Center version of Confluence (or at least with the old editor in Cloud). I could confirm that assumption with a screenshot of the whole page (without showing any private data). The "blue boxes" refer to the Cloud editor, which looks completely different and has different capabilites. 

In the old Editor you can mark all cells of all rows and then copy/paste, but you cannot drag rows around, if that is what you want to do.

Here is a a better picture while I'm editing.  I just want to select several rows in my table, delete them and then copy new data in at the moment and it seems crazy that its this difficult.

The answer remains the same, sorry!
