What’s New in Confluence Cloud
Page Editor
The new Confluence editor is fast and you can edit without losing your place. No more scrolling up to click Edit, then scrolling back down to make your changes. Confluence will keep you in the same place when you choose between viewing and editing a page.
E is the keyboard shortcut for Edit mode
New Editor vs Legacy Editor
Newly created pages in Cloud will default to the new Editor. Migrated content will default to the legacy editor, and pages must be manually converted to use the new editor. Don’t worry - converting is easy.
How to tell the difference?
How to convert a page to the new editor
Once you open the editor for a migrated page, it will open in the legacy editor.
To preview your page in the cloud editor, select Preview in the bottom left-hand corner.
You will then have three options: Cancel, Preview, and Convert page. It is recommended that you ALWAYS preview before converting.
When you are in the preview screen, a blue banner will appear at the top to let you know you are only previewing. It is best to compare this preview to the legacy space to make note what will need adjusting. Then, select “Convert page” and make any necessary edits in the newly converted page.
*Meanwhile, you do not have to convert your space. You can continue to use the legacy editor for migrated pages.
Scheduled Publish
You can now schedule your page or blog to publish on a specific, future date and time.
Select Schedule Publish from the More actions (…) menu.
Select date and time and select Schedule.
Page Status
Page status lets viewers know if page content is in Draft / In Progress / Final status.
Select Add status from under the page breadcrumbs while in edit mode.
Presenter Mode
Present your content in a streamlined fashion, without side panels, options menus, and in-line comments.
Select the More Actions drop down menu (the three dots on the top right side) and then select Presenter mode.
