Page Comparison

Metadata is information that describes a page, but is not actually visible on the page itself. By adding metadata to a page on your Refined site, you control what preview text and image show up when you post a link on another platform, for example on Twitter, Facebook or Slack. Modules such as the Pages module and the News module also use metadata to show a preview text or image of a page.

If a page has no metadata, the link’s preview text and image are taken from the on-page content.

On your Refined site, you can add metadata to these types of pages:A page’s featured image and text can appear in various places:

• The Pages module shows a Confluence page’s featured image.

• The News module shows a Confluence blog’s featured image.

• When a user searches on your site, they’ll see the page’s featured image and text.

• When you share a link to a publicly available page, a link preview shows the featured image and text. This works on social media and Slack, for example.

• When Google shows the page as a search result, it shows the featured text.

You can add a featured image and text to:

• A site’s home page

• Confluence pages and blog posts

• Confluence space homes landing pages

• Jira project homes

• Site homes

• Documents
