Hello,
I am writing a manual in Confluence. I was checking out how to convert it to a Blog, I converted in error but now I cannot put it back into the area/page in the Project area I was working with it.
Thanks Jimmy
Hi @Jimmy Whelan welcome to the Atlassian community.
I believe you have selected the correct space where the blog should reside. May we request the error message or the screenshot to assist you better?
I had the User Manual in the User Documentation section but when I created the Blog the manual was moved out from there. I expected that if the Blog was created the original manuscript of the Manual would remain where I created it, that is in the User Documentation section/page.

Hi @Jimmy Whelan thank you for the reply and details. When ever we try to convert to a blog, confluence gives a heads up: " Take this content and publish it as a new blog post. All comments and likes will be carried over to the new blog. If you don’t want those comments to carry over, delete them before converting". To my knowledge on this bit, once we convert to a blog, the original residency of the article will be permanently moved to new location.
@G subramanyam thanks for your update. I had planned to move the manual to Google Docs or MS Word (not users of the manual have Confluence).
This is not possible now from your reply. Would you have any recommendations?
I ran into this same issue today. It is worth noting, that while there is no 'undo'. I was able to successfully copy my work from the blog in edit mode, back to a new page in edit mode. This is obviously not ideal, and did take several clicks. However, it is much better than starting from scratch on what was already completed.
Hopefully someone will find this helpful.
