Managing Content
Finding content is as important as creating content. In this chapter we will learn how
to organize content using labels, favorites, and use the watch feature to keep track
of your content. With the use of the quick and advanced search features, we can find
relevant content and documents.
The goal of this chapter it to learn how to organize your Confluence content, so that
you and your users can easily find the up-to-date information they are looking for.
By the end of this chapter we will have a good understanding of how to:
• Organize your spaces
• Use labels
• Track changes in Confluence
• Search within Confluence
Organizing your spaces
In
Chapter 3
,
Creating Content
, we learned how to create spaces and pages. Over time,
your space will grow and pages might not be in the right order or location. Users
might also start complaining that they can't find the page you are referring to.
This is the moment your space could use a little organization and cleanup.
Changing the order of pages
Pages within Confluence have a hierarchical structure where other pages can be
grouped under a parent page. We refer to this group as
page family
. Pages within
a page family are, by default, ordered in alphabetical order. When you create a
new page it will be inserted into the page family in alphabetical order. It is possible
to move pages to a different position, automatically changing the order mode to
manual. In manual mode, the new page will be placed at the bottom of a page family.
