The Info, Tip, Note, and Warning macros allow you to highlight information on a Confluence page. They create a colored box surrounding your text, like this:
To add an Info, Tip, Note, or Warning Macro to a page:
- In the Confluence editor, choose
> Other Macros - Find and select the required macro
Speeding up macro entry with autocomplete:
- In the new editor - Type / and the beginning of an element (tool or things in the insert menu) to see a list of suggestions.
- In the legacy editor - Type { and the beginning of the macro name to see a list of suggested macros.
Details are in Keyboard shortcuts, markdown, and autocomplete.
To edit an existing macro
Click the macro placeholder and choose Edit. A macro dialog window will open, where you can edit the parameters of the macro.
Parameters
Parameters are options that you can set to control the content or format of the macro output. Where the parameter name used in Confluence storage format or wikimarkup is different to the label used in the browser, it will be listed below in brackets (example).
Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
Optional Title | none | The title of the box. If specified, the title text will be displayed in bold next to the icon. |
Show information/tip/Exclamation Mark/Warning Icon | true | If "false", the icon will not be displayed. |
Wiki markup example
Wiki markup is useful when you need to add a macro outside the editor, for example as custom content in the sidebar, header or footer of a space.
Macro names: info/tip/note/warning
Macro body: Accepts rich text.
{info:title=This is my title|icon=false}
This is _important_ information.
{info}
