There is no "find" function for a page, correct?

Barbara Morach January 31, 2022 edited

EDITED TO ADD:

I missed an important point. I meant for viewers, not the author. I don't actually want to replace anything as the author. I just want readers to be able search a fairly large table for key words.

But still helpful answers. It's confirming that the function I want is just not available.

Much appreciated!

I just want to confirm that I'm not missing a "find" function for a page in Confluence.

"Find" as in the MS function Find/Replace. I want to find a word or phrase on a page, I don't want to find a page that has the word in it somewhere.

I've feel I've done the research and the answer is no, but I am still quite new at using Confluence for product documentation, and I am not confident I am correct. 

Also, I really want a find function, so I'm hoping I am wrong.

Hi @Barbara Morach ,

If you are using confluence server/DC, please follow below steps. 

Go to confluence page --> click Edit 

Place your mouse cursor or any text in the page and then click Ctrl+f. You will get find and replace option

Hi @Barbara Morach

Perhaps, that's what you're looking for. Confluence pages have a very similar feature when you're in the edit mode of a page. You can use the shortcut crtl+f or command+f for mac.

I hope that helps.

Hi @Barbara Morach 

It's not there for page.

Globally you have the search bar at the top right navigation bar which searches for words in pages you have access to

Thanks
