Hello,Untitled.png

I want to modify the content on Children Display Macro. When I click on Edit, it only show "save" and "cancel", but I cannot adding more lines in.

How do I insert other contents there?

Thanks,

Bonnie

Hi @Bonnie Liu ,

When adding the Children Display macro without specifying a Parent Page, the current page is used by default.

That said, new pages will be shown there as soon as yo create new pages under the page containing the macro.

More info on this subject in the official documentation.

Hope it helps.

Please, remove the Number of Children parameter in order to get more than just 4 children.

ummmm terrible answer. They asked "How do I insert other contents.." I am still left with how to do it. Thanks for adding the official documentation. Perhaps that will actually answer the question.

To add the Children Display macro to a page:

From the editor toolbar, select Insert , then Other Macros.
Choose Children Display from the Confluence content or Navigation category.
Use the parameters below to specify which pages to display, and how you want them to look.
Choose Insert.
You can then publish your page to see the macro in action.
