If I have a piece of text at the top of the page and I want to also show it at a different place on the same page how can I do it?

@Peter Babida To repeat text on the same page or on another page, you can put it into an Excerpt macro and then use the Insert Excerpt macro where you want to repeat it (see https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-excerpt-macro/ and https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/insert-the-excerpt-include-macro/).

If the new Synced Block feature has been rolled out to your instance, you can also use that (see https://support.atlassian.com/confluence-cloud/docs/create-and-use-synced-blocks/).

See the response from @Kris Klima _K15t_ on this post for considerations for these 2 approached: https://community.atlassian.com/forums/Confluence-questions/Excerpt-vs-Synced-Block/qaq-p/3212606

Hi @Peter Babida 

Welcome to the community! If you add it as a heading by selecting in the top left cover. 

And add your text - it gives you a link to be referenced anywhere on the page/space or share that link.
