How language settings interact

You can choose your display language for Confluence, but if you don't, Confluence will default to the language you set in your browser. If you don't have a language preference set for Confluence or your browser, we'll use the site-wide language preference set by your site administrator.

Edit your editor settings

You can turn on or off some settings that affect how the Confluence editor works for you. The choices you make won't affect how Confluence works for other people on your site.

To edit your editor settings:

  1. Tap your profile picture at the right of the navigation, then select Settings.

  2. Choose Editor (under Your settings) from the panel on the left.

  3. Tap Edit and make your changes.
