Table of Contents?

[customer service]

I inherited Confluence Atlassian and trying to figure out what has been done and how. When I click on one of the pages, it looks like there is a table of contents or perhaps it's just a list of all the documents in that page and each document has a link? The other page does not although documents have been uploaded to that page. Please tell me how this list was created. I have more pages to create and would like them to be consistent. Thank you, Valerie

Hi Valerie,

If you'd like to see how a page is formatted you can click on the ∙∙∙ button in the top right corner and select View Source to see all the macros used.  You could even use the Copy function from that menu and make a copy of a page to play around with!  You can safely save that to your personal space without worrying about cluttering things up.

Good luck!

Hi Jared,

Thanks for your response. I'm afraid it didn't help. There was nothing there. Aren't there any step-by-step instructions with screen shots? All I've been able to find are documents and videos that talk about how great Atlassian/Confluence is and how well it works for teams but I've had no luck finding how to set it up. If you could please direct me to documents and/or videos that will actually walk me through setting up spaces and pages, and personal spaces, creating TOCs, uploading PDFs, etc., I would really appreciate it.

Thank you!

Valerie

Which of the following scenarios would you say applies to you?

1. I'm a SysAdmin that wants to set up Confluence Server for my organization.
2. I'm a department manager that wants to get my team set up using Confluence Cloud.
3. I'm the Confluence administrator for my company/department.
4. My company/department uses Confluence, but I don't know who the administrator is.

Hi Jared,

I believe I'm a #3. I'm going to be the one setting up spaces and pages and whatever else needs to be done.

Thank you!

Check out this tutorial.  Make sure the toggle in the top right corner is set to the version of Confluence applicable to your organization:

• Cloud if your Confluence URL ends in .net
• Server if your Confluence URL ends in .com (the version number will be at the bottom of any of your Confluence pages)

And you'll definitely find it useful to browse the Documentation page while you're at it.
