Sites
A site is a Refined version of Confluence connected to your Confluence instance. When you activate Refined you will activate a skin that sits on top of your Confluence site. In addition to the main Confluence site you can add as many additional sites as you wish. Each site has its own categories, spaces and pages. You can also assign users to sites and set start sites for users.
Note: On Cloud, rather than Refined being an app installed onto a Confluence site like a skin, it is a Refined site connected to Confluence. So on Cloud you always have the Confluence version and a parallel Refined version of the site. Category: .

Categories / Pages
A category is a collection of spaces organized into a group we call a category (called a page on Cloud). Categories sit in a dropdown navigation menu. Each category has a dashboard you can use to collate information for that category. You can also deactivate the dashboard if you prefer. If you have a lot of spaces in a category use subcategories to organize the spaces.
Note: On Cloud, Categories are called ‘Pages’. But operate in the same way as on Server/DC.
