A very useful aspect of Confluence is rapid page creation based on linking. |
Creating new pages through linksThere are two ways to create a new page: - The first is to hit 'Add Page' in the menu. You will find detailed instructions in the tutorial in this space.
- The second is to simply link to a new page in an existing one. Just click the 'Edit' link and, using Wiki Markup, type in the following: It will produce this: my new page.
The red, underlined text indicates that if you click on it you will be given the option of creating a new page. You can read more about Wiki Markup in the documentation. Pages have parents, just like anyonePages themselves can have parents, and thus you can create 'page families' (or ' page hierarchies') in Confluence. These are useful for showing logical connections between pages, as we have done for the 'Home' page and every other page in the demonstration spaceDemonstration Space: Children Display |

It's up to you what kind of meaning you want your page hierarchies to represent. A common use is similar to a 'Table table of Contents' contents in a book, which presents a chapter with pages belonging to it. Wikis differ to the classical notion of books, however, and it is appropriate to think in a wider notions context and experiment with how content can be presented in a useful way for a community of users. |
