Set up Confluence Cloud
Get the high-level details you need to set up your Confluence Cloud site in order to meet your team's needs.
The Page Tree macro displays a dynamic, hierarchical list of pages starting from a specified parent (root) page. It can act as a table of contents or a list of related topics. When viewing the page tree, your reader can click a link to view the relevant page. The page's current position is highlighted in the page tree.
To add the Page Tree macro:
When editing , select from the toolbar
Find the item to be inserted and select it
Select Insert
You can also type / on the page to bring up the same list you'd see by selecting from the toolbar.
To edit the Page Tree macro:
Select the macro placeholder. The floating toolbar appears.
Select Edit. The right panel opens.
Modify the parameters. Your changes are saved as you go.
Resume editing the page, and the panel closes.
Parameters are options that you can set to control the content or format of the macro output.
If the parameter name used in Confluence Cloud storage format or wikimarkup is different than the label used when inserting macros using the browser or the slash command, it will be listed below in brackets (example).
Parameter | Default | Description |
---|---|---|
Root Page | The home page of the space | Specify the parent page for the page tree. The tree will include all children of the given page, plus their children and grand-children etc. The tree will not include the root page itself.
|
Sort Pages By | position | Specify the order to display the pages in the tree. This sort order is for display purposes only. It does not permanently re-arrange the page order. The value may be one of the following:
|
Include Excerpts in Page Tree | false | Select if you want the page tree to show excerpts from each page. The excerpts must be defined on each page by the Excerpt macro. |
Reverse Order | false | Select to show the pages in reverse (descending) natural order. Must be used in combination with the Sort Pages By parameter. |
Include Search Box above Page Tree | false | Select if you want to include a search box above the page tree. The search box allows your readers to search within the page tree for the specified value. |
Show Expand/Collapse Links | false | Select if you want to display the 'expand all' and 'collapse all' links at the top of your page tree. Your readers can click these links to open or close all branches of the tree at once. Available values in wikimarkup and storage format:
|
Start Depth | 1 | Enter any number greater than 0 to set how many levels of children the tree should show when it opens for the first time. |
Wiki markup is only supported in the legacy editor.
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 name: pagetree
Macro body: None.
