Links

For internal links within this Confluence instance please use one of the following options:

This ensures that the links work also if a page is moved.

Please use the "Web link" or "Advanced" linkage only for external links.

Overview pages

Use the macro "Children Display" to show all descendant pages of your or a specific page.

Use the macro "Linchpin Teaser" to show a button-like link to a specific page.

Content reuse

If you have the same content for different pages, you can use the "{Multiexcerpt"-macro. Specify a name for it and then put in your reusable content.

(warning) Please do not use special characters in the Multiexcerpt Name.

To show this content on other pages, use the macro "{Multiexcerpt Include", select your source and put it in. Changes in the source excerpt will be synced to the included.

(lightbulb) Using design elements such as Teasers in a Multiexcerpt could cause weird appearances. Check the Box "Disable Caching" in the Multiexcerpt Include macro to prevent this.

Collections / Libraries for special terms and paragraphs

There are paragraphs and special terms which are used very often in the documentation.

The single platform parameters you will find on the Parameters page.

But there are also hidden libraries / collections e.g. for Wordings (like Platform name), Backoffice instrucutions, API ... You can find them for example by going via the Space Tools to "Reorder Pages".

This contributes to an efficient way of working, as adjustments only need to be made once and are then automatically applied to the included pages.

So please also adjust the corresponding pages in the live space, if changes occur. Even though the page cannot be viewed directly, its contents are still used on different pages.

Attachments & Images

When using images, click on it in edit mode and select the "Original"-size button for a responsive redering of this image.

Diagrams with Draw.io

You do not need to create diagrams for every language. If you give your diagrams a distrinct name you can link this diagram via {draw.io-Search so that the changes are synced.


Translations

You can link pages in different languages so that the viewer can switch between them.

You can do this by:
