Embedded pages (beta)
Although the vast majority of Confluence pages are displayed on Refined sites without problem, you might want to add pages to your sites that include formatting or macros that Refined doesn’t (fully) support.
In that case, embed Confluence pages on private Refined sites so they look just as they do in native Confluence:
Display any third-party macro
Show all original formatting
Edit the page directly on the Refined site (if user has Confluence permissions to do so)
...
Availability
Due to technical limitations, this feature is only available on private sites that don’t have a custom domain. Site visitors on Chrome need to have cookies enabled to see the pages. Note that the custom domain limitation might be temporary, as we are investigating it with Atlassian.
If the setting is not available, it will be displayed in grey in the site’s Space Settings.
Impact on other settings and performance
Embedding Confluence pages:
Disables the following the space settings:
Display authors (however, the embedded pages will still show author and last updated, because this is standard information on a native Confluence page)
Show estimated read time
Table of content
Moves some controls, which are normally located at the top of the page, to the bottom of the page: the … (three dots) button, the feedback button and the star which lets you to add the Confluence pages as favorites.
May cause slightly slower performance on-page.
May cause certain page interactions not to work, such as opening links located within third-party macros.
Additionally, since Embedded Confluence Pages are shown in an iFrame, some macros will be displayed as an iFrame within an iFrame (e.g. Miro or Figma). In those cases, this may result in a sub-optimal experience for users.
Display authors
Show authors at the top of Confluence pages and blog posts. This setting is not available when you have enabled the Embedded Confluence pages setting.
Show estimated read time
Show the estimated read time at the top of Confluence pages and blog posts. This setting is not available when you have enabled the Embedded Confluence pages setting.
Enable Confluence space homes
When this setting is disabled, clicking the title of the left-hand side menu takes users to a customizable landing page. When this setting is enabled, it takes you to the space home (space overview) instead. Regardless of this setting, the Confluence space home stays accessible on your site via search, modules, or Confluence Pages.
You can help users reach your Confluence space home instead of the landing page on your site, by linking a module directly to it in the Page Builder (or the legacy Layout Editor):
Add the space to your Refined site. You can choose to hide it from the navigation menu, if you’d like.
Disable the Confluence space home for this space.
On any page in this space, click the title of the left-hand menu to see the space home. Copy the URL of this page.
Add that URL to a module in the Page Builder (or the legacy Layout Editor).
Table of contents
A table of contents helps users navigate long pages. It lists all headings on a page, moves with the user as they scroll down, shows which paragraph the user is reading, and can take them to another paragraph with a simple click. Users can hide or show the table of contents by clicking the icon on the right-hand side of the page.
This setting is not available when you have enabled the Embedded Confluence pages setting.
