Create automatic date

Question

Hello, the meeting notes template is not working right now in a few areas. That's why I want to create a new template for meetings.
How can I create a field where automatically comes current date???Goal: when I open a template, current date comes automatically.

Thanks for your help!

Best regards,

Magdalena

In the template itself I haven't found a way to put an automatic date in, but when you configure the button "Create from Template" (macro) you can make sure the page title has the date in it using @currentDate.

Hello Magdalena,

In Confluence-Server/ Data Center there is no native way of doing that. But you have a view options. You can find them in the following Community feeds:
