We’re excited to have you on board in the beta launch!
Our new what-you-see-is-what-you-get editor lets you see your design come to life in real time as you build. You’re now able able to add, drag, edit, resize, and design content directly in the user-facing view of your page.
Access the new Layout Editor
On your Refined site, go to the page that you want to edit.
On the top-right of the page, click the … (Three dots) > Edit page 2.0.
Switch between editors
It’s still possible to access the old Layout Editor:
On your Refined site, go to the page that you want to edit.
On the top-right of the page, click the … (Three dots) > Edit page.
You can also switch to the legacy editor from within the new editor. Click the button in the welcome banner, or go to the left-hand menu (accessible through the three-line icon).
Note that your users see the most recently published version of the page, regardless of the editor it was made in. Save a new layout as a draft if you don’t want it published yet. A draft in the legacy editor is not available in the new editor, and vice versa.
Content and structure
Modules are your page’s building blocks. Use them to:
Create navigation.
Show content from Atlassian Cloud.
Add information.
Structure a page by organising modules into different sections. Sections can be further organised into rows, which can contain up to six columns.
You can easily switch up your design by dragging and dropping modules, sections and rows around.
Add a module
To add a module, simply hover your mouse over a spot in the layout and click the button that appears.
The availability of modules depends on the content of your Refined site. For example, if you don't have a Confluence space on your site, you can’t add a Confluence-specific module to your layout.
Edit a module
Click a module to see its menu, which appears on the right-hand side.
Click the Cogwheel to edit the module’s settings. Available settings vary per module: read a module’s documentation to learn about the possibilities (see the list of modules above).
Click the Two pages to duplicate the module.
Click the Bin to delete the module.
Add a new section or row
Sections and rows act as containers for modules and help you organise your page. To create a new section or row:
Hover your mouse over an existing section.
Click the + Section button or + Row button that appears below the section.
Edit a section
