Content and structure items
Most sites consist of a mix of these items that let you shape your site’s content and structure:
A Refined Page is a customizable landing page. Although it is not connected to any specific Confluence or Jira content itself, you can use it to show content from the spaces and projects that you group underneath it in the Site Builder.
...
Add content
...
Any item that you nest below a Refined Page appears in a dropdown list in your site’s navigation menu.
Menu Folders also let you create dropdown lists in the navigation menu. As opposed to a Refined Page, a Menu Folder doesn’t have a landing page.
When you add a Confluence space, you create a customizable landing page for the space. Through this page, users can access the Confluence space’s pages and blogs.
When you add a JSM project, you create a customizable landing page for the project. Users can create and view requests on this page.
When you add a Jira Software project, you create a customizable landing page for the project. Users can create and view issues on this page.
Links let you direct users to any page you want, on or off your site, straight from your site’s navigation menu.
Site Builder hierarchy
An organized Navigation Menu helps your visitors find the right content. Simply drag and drop items to arrange them into a hierarchy. Group items underneath Refined Pages and Menu folders to create dropdown lists in the site navigation menu. The key to a successful hierarchy is to think about the relationships between spaces/projects and how they'll be used.
For example, you can create four menu folders which will be the main navigation menu items on your intranet: Teams, Projects, Resources and HR. Everything you group underneath these folders in the Site Builder appears in dropdown lists in the menu.
Item | Can have other items grouped underneath it | Can be grouped underneath another item |
|---|---|---|
Refined Page | ✅ | ✅ |
Menu folder | ✅ | ✅ |
Link | - | ✅ |
Confluence space | ✅ | |

Items that are justified to the left in the Site Builder (parent items) will appear as items in the Navigation Menu. Content that is nested under parent items (child items) will appear in drop-down menus in the Navigation Menu.
