Confluence page settings have changed

My confluence listing page used to have a place to edit labels at the bottom right corner, but now it's gone. It's been replaced with a Quickstart button that is in the way. Plus, now there is a place to add comments at the bottom which is not needed. How do I get it back like it was before?

It is really time consuming to change labels if I have to open every document to do it.

(First, "Quickstart" is not a replacement, it is just a piece UI in the similar location, but it is not meant to replace labels.)

What I see in our Confluence Cloud instance:

  1. Those pages that are not space homepages, have an "+ add label" link at the bottom of the page. It looks a bit different like it was earlier, but does the same.
  2. But, space homepages doesn't have this. Those don't even display labels! I noticed it months ago, but it seems Confluence Cloud treats these a bit differently. You can modify the labels of a space homepage like this:
    1. Click the "pen" icon to start editing
    2. Open the '..." menu
    3. Click "Edit labels"

Thank you so much! You are correct, the screenshot above is a space homepage! But what was happening is the label field was changed and the quickstart thing was covering it up. I finally googled it, and I had to open up the Quickstart (which I ignored because who needs that?) and all the way at the bottom was a link to dismiss the Quickstart.

Once I did that, I was able to see the labels again at the bottom of the pages. But you're correct again, that it looks different now, but still works. I just couldn't see it! 

Thank you!

There are a few different ways to change the settings on a Confluence page. One way is to go to the "Space Tools" menu and select "Page Settings." Another way is to click the "Tools" button at the top of the page and select "Edit Page Settings.

I don't have any tools button, or Space Tools, or Page Settings in confluence :(
