Using a template - How do I add/remove individual sections?

[Nicholas Kollgaard]

Hi guys,

I am using one of the pre-canned Confluence templates, but I do not understand how I can add or remove individual blocks. For example, in the screenshot attached, there is a grid of 4x blocks: "Subscriptions", "Billing_Accounts", "Billing_invoices", "Payment_Failure". 

So how would I create a new 5th block and remove existing?

Many thanks,

Nick

It looks like in your screenshot you've clicked in the info panel (where 'Subscriptions' is typed). If you click in one of the blank areas of a box, you'll see the template is two 2-column layouts. You should then see the different layout options - different number of columns and sidebars available to choose from:

To create a fifth block, you'll want to use the 3 column layout. Below I've made the bottom layout into a 3-column and added a 5th Info Panel (if you click on the + in the top ribbon you'll see the Info Panel option)

FYI - If you delete a layout both boxes will be removed.

Hope this helped!

Thanks for the reply!

So am I right in thinking the maximum number of boxes could only ever be 6?

Actually, you could add additional 3 column layout sections underneath for 9 boxes, 12 boxes, etc
