How to add a table of contents to confluence without a the macro

Jennifer Klafin August 16, 2017

I'm creating a Confluence page, but I'm not an admin therefore I just have a icon based menu and none of them are macros. All the articles I've found for inserting a Table of Contents refers to using a macro.

Is there a way to add a table of contents without a macro? Thanks!

My apologies for the run around - turns out it's not Confluence. :/

No problem - maybe this is the time to move to Confluence :-)

@Thomas Schlegel - Yes! Reading about Confluence and using what we're on now, I wish we were on it. :)

Hi all -

Thanks for all of the suggestions! Unfortunately none of those worked. I'll dig more - somehow I believe there's a way to reference the different header #s, even if I have to do it manually. I'll keep playing around with it and post if I figure it out.

I ping'd our IT team to find out what version we have and if it truly is Confluence - thought it was with our company wrapper on it since we use mosty Atlassian solutions, but double checking.

Hi Jennifer,

That looks quite unlike the Confluence editor, more like a standard TinyMCE interface... which version of Confluence are you using?

Does Ctrl-Shift-A to open the macro selection dialog work?

This menue looks quite unfamiliar to me. Do you have another editor for your pages?
