I'm really frustrated on the new confluence page inserting code functionality

[Rong Shen]

I immediately noticed the way inserting code snippet in new Confluence page is changed.

There is no clear instructions on how to do it.

I tried googling but no workable solutions for me.

Then I give up, just copy the code snippets from old Confluence page.

If anyone can help tell me how to insert code snippets in Confluence page, i really appreciate your help.

And I cannot help complain this to Atlassian to express how frustrated I am.

Thanks

Are you on prem or cloud for Confluence?

Take a look here:

That's how I used to insert code. But after upgrade, this functionality is gone.

While editing the page, just type :

{code}

OR

{cheese}

Does auto fill complete the macro?

Yes! Finally that worked. Thank you very much!
