Title says it all. I am working on a confluence document and need to add page breaks.
I can't figure out how to do this. I don't see an "insert > page break" option. Searching online tells me to create macros, but I don't have the interface options they say to use. I saw a post online that said macros/page breaks are not available to free accounts.
What is the easiest way to add a page break? Is there not a simple button in the confluence tool?
I am using confluence online if that matters. (nothing downloaded)
Hi @Justin_51
Welcome to the Community!!
It's not available yet in Confluence
There are feature requests on this though
For now as an alternative
If you need this exporting the page to PDF, follow the link below
You could use Scriptrunner to define the page break macro to include this in the page
Let me know if you have queries
Full explanation here --> https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/How-do-I-insert-page-breaks-for-PDF-Export-with-the-quot-new/qaq-p/1209354

I need to choose the placement of a page break, not at the top of every page (i think that's what is being suggested in the linked thread).
The full explanation thread you linked looks like a team member communicating macros are being deprecated, but is from 2019 referencing changes in 2017 so maybe it has changed.

Hi @Justin_51
As I given the feature requests link Atlassian team will work on bringing the feature of page break.
But for now if you need it, buy Scriptrunner plugin and build a macro
Even though the links are from 2019, the information is relevant to till date 🙂
Please go ahead and mark the answer as accepted so that other users will also be benefited when they search for this requirement
Let me know if you have any queries

I personally add html code with :
<div style="page-break-before:always"> </div> <!-- simulates a break page to do the pdf export properly -->
It's hidden in confluence and makes the page break in pdf export

Hey @Justin_51
You could also use my team's app Scroll PDF Exporter which has macros for page breaks and many other types of document formatting which enable you to totally customize the final document.
