Dropdown menu in a confluence template

[Julian]

Hey guys,

I know the topic got asked several times now, I apologise for that but I can't follow the solutions there...

I am a complete newbie to confluence and trying to create a dropdown menu. I don't want to use plugins here and it seems like it should be possible without. 

The Dropdown menu should be in a table. 

Does somebody know a step-by-step solution or maybe a video for that?

Would be great!

Thank you in advance!

Hi @Julian ,

  We also required a dropdown solution when we installed Confluence Server years back.

Out of the box, Confluence does not have a dropdown feature.

• Our only option at the time was to download  the "EasyDropdownMenu" add-on.
• https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1216797/easy-dropdown-menu-drop-down-selection?hosting=server&tab=overview

Wish I could give better news.

Also @community, if I am wrong, please correct me.

Any update on when Atlassian will make this a feature in Confluence without having to use outside macros or apps? I can see posts going back to 2013 from users asking for this feature...

Hi @Julian ,

I can also suggest using one of our apps - Handy Macros for Confluence.

The add-on provides the Handy Status macro that accomplishes your case: you create pre-defined sets of statuses and choose any status you want (you can switch statuses in the page view mode as well).
