Confluence Folders Direct Link

Question

I wanted to ask if anyone knows of an option to "redirect" from the link of a Folder in Confluence not to the page that is at the top of the folder (current behaviour) but to the page that is the newest (latest creation date).

Our use-case is for a folder where we have Agendas / Meeting Minutes. Currently, we manually put new pages at the top so that the link always opens the newest one but sometimes we forget. It's a small QoL improvement but would be nice to know if it's possible to change where the default link redirects to.

Thanks!

Ok, thanks. Than I will stick to Folders for now as the "work" needed is just to drag the new page at the top of the folder and then the link to the folder will open that page.

No, it wouldn't I'm afraid.

But I don't think it's possible unless you do one extra step.

* You create a page that you want to link to - let's call it LINK PAGE.
* On that LINK PAGE, you would use an Page include macro.
* Ever time, after you create the latest meeting minutes page, you would update the link on the LINK PAGE.

(you can achieve the same effect with a Excerpt (minute page) Excerpt include (LINK PAGE) macros)
