Roll back to old editor?

[Robin Roos]

Hi Founders,

Regarding : https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Why-are-the-toolbar-formatting-options-for-Overviews-and-Pages/qaq-p/1072778

I don't want ANY of this.

If I want to edit a website I will use WordPress.

When doing Wiki I want the OLD editing experience.

I do NOT want fixed-width tables, which require me to spend effort on layout.

I do want the old data-width tables, so I can just CREATE the 1x1 table, paste the data I had prepared in Excel, and save the page.

The new experience is shit for Wiki users. Please immediately revert Confluence Cloud instances, and then provide the option to exploit new/old experiences. Or, even better, just remove the "new" experience altogether.

Same site, different pages, same content pasted from exactly the same Excel workbook.

How can I get tables to look like the bottom one (auto_suppliers) when working with the "New" Editor Experience (auto_suppliers_fullwidth)?

Is it time for a new Wiki?

I'm hugely unimpressed.

Kind regards, Robin.

You can also find and parent orphan pages by going to the Reorder Pages function in Space Tools.  Simply drag each orphan to its new place in the hierarchy.  Orphans appear as top-level pages along with the space's home page.

By default, new pages are parented to the page users were on when they choose Create.  The most common case where I've seen people create unparented pages is when they don't go to a space where they can add a page before choosing Create – if users typically choose Create from the Dashboard, for example, and then choose the target space in the resulting dialog, then they can easily create orphans.  I don't know a way out of that, other than user education and rescuing orphans by hand. Ideally, users are trained to go to the page that should contain their information before choosing Create.

I am in the space where I want to create a new page. And yet, any new page I create becomes a new orphan.

I also cannot reorder pages in this space.

This behavior is unique to one space only. When I go to this space, the typical options for editing, sharing, etc. on the top right hand of the page are not showing. I have attached a screen shot.

Thanks for ideas in advance.
