How to use link manager on a single page
On any page select ‘More actions’ […] to open the pull down menu. Scroll down, select ‘Apps’ then 'Space Content manager’.
Select the tab ‘Link manager’.
Preview
You see a list of all the links on the page. The preview is a required step before you can submit changes.
Note: only administrators can see the ‘App settings’ and ‘More actions’ buttons.
Select - unselect
All links are selected by default.
-
deselect links you do not want to change
Even if a link is selected nothing will change unless you actively make a change (link text or change how it displays). Meaning you are not required to deselect links that are not changing.
Edit base URL and display text
Changing the underlying URL and text of a link are done separately.
Select edit icon to make a change.
Change from Display URL to Display inline (or the reverse)
In this example URL is the what the link currently is.
It is being changed to ‘Display inline'. The preview disappear because Line does the base URL.
Display URL (URL) means it shows the full URL. You can customize the text that is displayed.
Example: if the underlying Display URL is by default displayed as https://www.atlassian.com/ you could edit it to Atlassian homepage.
Display inline (Inline) means it shows the meta title of the link. This is done automatically when you paste a link into Confluence. Example:
Atlassian links use a system they call smartlinks. Learn more.
