Every development has its own prerequisite, including developing a Confluence add-on. Don’t fret, it’s nothing laborious. All you need is an Atlassian Plugin SDK – basically a software development kit – installed on your machine (click this link for more information). Next, make sure you have the latest Java environment installed… and you’re good to go!

Being one of the first developers employing Blueprints when creating plugins, we'd like to share our experience with others. To do that, we developed a nifty plugin that creates pages from good old wiki markup in the View mode.

This section introduces you to the concepts you need to know to develop a Confluence blueprint. It contains the following topics:

Plugin module types used in blueprints.
Content templates.
Placeholders/Instructional text.
Index pages.
Internationalization, translation, and blueprints.
Testing your Confluence blueprint.

Our crash course in the basics of using Confluence started off with organizing your work in spaces. Next came creating content with pages, and we concluded with discussing work with your team. The goal: to give new users the resources to get started successfully, and vets a chance to learn best practices and new tips and tricks.

Ce guide va vous aider à aborder l’expansion de vos usages Confluence et éventuellement le passage en version Data Center. Elles ne sont pas exhaustives ou obligatoires, ce sont des conseils pour vous aider à mieux organiser votre Confluence que ce soit sur une instance existante ou sur le lancement de la plateforme dans votre organisation.

Adaptavist and Good Software team up to bring you a two-part blog on how to build Confluence content that's easier to scale and manage.

A guide to creating release planning pages in Confluence that organizes all the information your developers need in one place.

Are you receiving the same questions over and over again? If so, it’s time to give your users and customers what they need – a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page. In this blog post, you’ll find some tips and examples that will help you create and manage your very own FAQ collection in Confluence.

3 things to keep in mind about Confluence labels:

Confluence labels are case-sensitive. ‘Content’ and ‘content’ will be 2 different labels in Confluence, so if you decide to use lower-cases in your instance, make sure everybody knows.
Take note of regional spelling differences. This is particularly relevant when you have distributed teams across the world. For example, what we in the UK would spell ‘programme’ would be ‘program’ across the pond.
Have a policy for compound words. Confluence only supports single word labels, so if you need to create compound words you will need to decide on how to separate them. If you go with hyphens, stick to hyphens; otherwise, ‘app_team’ and app-team’ will be 2 different labels.

In the first article of this series dedicated to Confluence Admins working remotely, we looked at Using a Confluence Labels System to Keep Content Under Control. In this post, we’ll look at a few ways to create better structure on your pages and spaces using templates and blueprints.
Confluence blueprints and templates - what are the differences?

Having pages in as many different styles, formats and locations makes it difficult for users to find and digest content. One way to help content creators keep a consistent style when adding new pages is by making good use of Confluence’s premade page templates and blueprints – Confluence pages with predefined content.

When your users add a new page, they won't have to start from scratch. Instead, they will base their new page on a template or a blueprint. Templates are simply generic pages with pre-populated content, covering most scenarios - from HR Reporting to Product Requirements.

A Confluence blueprint is a template with added functionality. Blueprint pages can offer more customisation and are automatically indexed for easy access and page overviews. When you’re using them, pages created from templates and pages created from blueprints are practically identical, which can create a bit of confusion on what the differences are exactly.

The main thing to remember is that, when adding blueprints to your instance, some development effort will be required, while template pages are faster to create and require no development effort.
