Can the nesting of pages default to the home page of a Space only in Confluence 6.15
I'm with @Thomas Schlegel on this one; by default whenever you create a new page, it will be a child of the current page that is open/visible. This is mentioned in the Create and Edit Pages documentation.However you should be able to select the location of a new page when creating it, by pressing the Tree icon and then specifying a new parent page on the Set Page Location pop-up as per the next image:
What do you mean exactly by nesting? The parent-child-relation?
If so, I don't think that you can restrict this behaviour, I never heard of anything like this.
Hi The behavior that when a new page is created it is 'nested' under the existing page you are viewing rather than the home page of the space - as shown below - page 2 is 'nested' under page 1 - I would like all pages to simply nest and therefore list under 'Home' - I know you can reorder pages after the fact....
As I said, I don't think that this is possible. And for our environment, I can say that this would lead to a totally unusable bunch of pages.
Having a hierarchy of pages and top level pages for the different topics makes finding a page much easier. But this may be not the case in your environment.
OK thanks for your input - yes I can see the value when it is required but in this particular space all pages within are unique.
Thanks Bruno that is useful to know.
While I have you please: I note (as a new Confluence user) that if you close an unpublished page that you are taken to the top level of your site - not back to the space you were creating the page in.
Is this the default behavior?
Thanks
@Gordon Rutherford I've just tested with version 6.15 (different instances on different minor versions) and it is true that whenever you close without publishing/updating, Confluence goes to the Recently worked on section and the reason for that is explained by a pop-up message that you get the first time you do this, that says:
We've dropped your draft into Recently worked on. Find, edit, and publish it when you're ready
I am not aware that you can change, or customise, this behaviour. Cheers,Bruno
OK thanks for your reply
Cheers
Gordon
