Can you set the Expand Macro to be expanded by default?

Matt January 21, 2021

Using Confluence Cloud, the default Expand Macro will be in the 'collapsed' state when viewing the page.

Is there a way to set the Expand Macro to always show the information within the macro as default?

I would ideally be able to navigate to a page full of already expanded macros and be able to collapse them if I saw fit to do so. Otherwise the macros would stay expanded.

 

Cheers,

Matt

Unfortunately, after some investigation there seems to be a related ticket on Atlassian's Jira for this functionality, however it is 4 years old and has only 2 votes:

+1 But you cant vote for this feature. Any TOP page gets the page tree macro, and all of them cant be expanded at default.

Easy way to do this:

Set your Start Depth to a really high number like 15 and it will auto expand everything.
