how does one create a table of contents?

[Richard Bugg]

I have a space and have created a How To Articles page. I would like to create a table of contents. The only work-around I have been able to come up with is to put links to the other pages on the first page of the How To Articles page.

Hi @Richard Bugg

Confluence allows us to do that using a table of contents Jack has mentioned.

But if you are looking for ways how to make that not just a list of page titles with links but something more looking more professional visually, e.g. similar to a navigation section, you can try cards. In this article you can read about different tools for adding cards (using Confluence built-in and marketplace apps)

Also, if you want to improve the readability of your how-to articles, you might consider tools that can help you to make your content well-structured and with highlighted key info.

One of them is Content Formatting Macros, which helps to create pages like this one https://kolekti.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CFMFCC/pages/432078867/How+To+Article. If you have further questions, please let me know, that app was created by my team.

Hi @Richard Bugg , you can add a TOC for a page or you can add a pagetree macro. See if those references help.
