Add a background color to one cell

NathanG

How do I add a background color to one cell in my confluence table?

I'm on confluence 5.3 and I can't find any coloring options with the default editor.

Thanks~!

There is a button in the editor bar for this.

What if we want colors than those five pastels?

Jacob Boyko

Yes, more colors would be useful - and not a very difficult feature to implement I should think!

It will be great if we can add more colors.

You can always attempt to modify the table's background or cell color in the HTML in the source editor <>.

Table Example: <table bgcolor="red">
Cell Example: <td bgcolor="blue">
Use "#hexcolors" instead of "blue" for best results.

Environment Server 6.6.1

I belive if you have an older version this will not work. The code editor used to strip out anything that you put on tables, such as width or color. Looks like it works with newer version though ... yay!!

Yup. Source editor works for the most part in 5.9.10. Welcome to 1998 HTML.

Can I do it with a Confluence CLI one-liner?

Have not tried.

Here are three macros for setting the background colour for a table cell, table row or the whole table.

I tried the table_cell template in a User-Macro and it still works in Conf. 6.15.

You can use HTML colour or a HTML numeric #value.

The template is in Stackoverflow from Zac Thompson.

You need admin rights to create a user macro.
