CREATE AND EDIT CONTENT

In Confluence, you create content as pages in a space or as blog posts in a
space. Both of these documents are conceptually the same; they are both created
by clicking the create action in the global navigation. You choose Blog post to
create a blog, and any other templates create a page.



Page templates are pre-formatted and feature relevant macros and instructions to
help you create retros, meeting minutes, how-to-articles, decisions, and more.
You can edit any of these templates to suit your own needs, or you can create
your own templates from scratch. 

Just like other documents you've used, you can fill pages and blog posts with
text and tables, and format them to look pretty, funny, or professional.
Confluence also lets you use macros and embed files so that you can have dynamic
content in your documents, like videos, Jira issues, roadmaps, and automated
reports. 

The differences between pages and blogs include the following:

 * Published blogs are available in the Blog section of your space and are
   grouped chronologically. This means that they have a sense of timeliness
   and are more suited to announcements, news, and updates. 

 * Published pages are accessed from the Pages section of the space
   sidebar. Pages live in a page tree and can be nested and organized
   hierarchically, so you can have pages under pages (under pages). This lets
   you give your content structure and highlight relationships between pages,
   such as when you have a parent page about cats, and then child pages under
   that about different breeds of cats.



Every Confluence space, including your personal space, allows you to create
pages in it, and has its own blog in which you can create posts.
