Hello

Can i in any way do following:

F.e. i made big space, with a lot of pages. During writing pages content i mark places that i want to rewrite or correct in future.

And i'd like to gather it all in one report, or table with links to places i marked.

Like bookmarks and report for entire space.

May be any apps?

Hello @Класс точности !

As I understand, you want to create a list of pages that contain a type of bookmarked part for future improvement.

I believe we can achieve something similar by using the Anchor Macro and the advanced search in Confluence.

Here is how I would suggest dealing with this situation with the native resources offered by Confluence:

  1. Create your page
  2. Add the Anchor macro to the part of the page where you need to keep working later
  3. Publish the page
  4. Go into the search bar at the top right corner
  5. Click the Advanced search option
  6. Search for macroName:anchor*

The result from the search macroName:anchor* will give you all the pages that contain the Anchor macro. The main limitation of this approach is that you will not be redirected to the anchor place if you click the search results. We need to manually fill-in the anchor address in the browser address bar. And there is also no reporting to look into the anchors you place.

This process is made easy by choosing a default anchor name for your anchors so you manually add that to the page address in the future.

Here is an example:

  1. I created an anchor called review
  2. I created a page called Link to Page
  3. Your Page URL is http://myconfluence:8090/display/SpaceKey/Link+to+Page
  4. Your anchor name is review
  5. We can access the anchor by going to http://myconfluence:8090/display/SpaceKey/Link+to+Page#LinktoPage-review

Notice that the anchor name is actually the full page name with no spaces ant then the anchor macro name separated by the a dash.

You can find more details on Anchors and the Anchor macro here:

In our marketplace, some vendors do sell document review plugins, it might be worth looking into:

I hope this helps!
