Confluence - personas based documentation

avinjamuri August 1, 2018

Do we have any macros that help in designing personas based documentation ? For ex , in the main page , the user can select the role he is , lets say QE or Dev and then based on the selection the content comes up .

Hi @avinjamuri

welcome to this wonderful community. My first idea would be working with labels and use content by label macro. Content by Label
Combine this with a link or button.

Another idea would be categorize whole spaces with labels. Labels to Categorize Spaces

In the landing page , the user should get to choose the content based on his role . For example, a dev when clicks on the say "Developer "tab .. gets to see all content related to his role... Is there any way of doing that .. can we have a drop-down list box ..

Should the whole content (when chosen by user) be shown on the dashboard/start page?

You can easily create buttons that link to the Space or a landing page where content by label is used. I would prefer a page for each role to keep it simple.

Or you sort your spaces by categories and use the space list macro and let it sort by categories (this creates a dropdown)

When chosen by user , he get to choose the list of topics on the landing page and then based on his selection the content topics is shown which will be a different page. 

Yes, For each role there must be a separate page .. 

How about creating menus .. ?
