Is there a macro that searches content in a page and highlights them (just like CTRL + F)?

[Lorena O.]

Hi all,

I would like to have a search macro that highlights the content I am looking for in a page.

I know CTRL + F does the job, but for the users of this specific page it might not be so obvious. I have tried all the search macros (Livesearch, Page Tree, Search) but they just show the page as a result.

@Lorena O. This is cool use case, unfortunately there is no such feature in confluence by default.

I think custom development is only way to go forward with this.

Does Confluence intend on building this macro for our pages for easy keyword searches?
Would Confluence create a macro that would allow Users to create keyboard shortcuts from button?
