Now that you have seen the menus, you are ready to start creating content in Confluence. Let's begin by adding a new space:
- Right-click the 'Dashboard' link at the top of your screen, and open the link in a new browser window.
- Your Confluence Dashboard appears. At the left of the screen is a list of spaces. (The Demonstration Space is included in the list.)
- Click the 'Create a space' link, located below the list.
- The 'Create Space' screen appears.
- In the 'Enter a Space Name' box, type a name for your new space. You may want to use your department name (e.g. 'IT', 'Finance' or 'Marketing'), or a name that identifies the purpose of the space (e.g. 'Test Space').
- In the 'Enter a Space Key' box, type a short abbreviation of the space name (e.g. 'IT' or 'TEST').
- Under 'Who can use this space', all the boxes are ticked. You don't need to change anything at this time.
- Under 'Choose Theme', the 'Default Theme' is selected. Keep the Default Theme for now.
- Click the 'OK' button, located at the bottom of the screen.
- The home page of your new space appears.
