Description

Creates a simple form on a page for users to enter the name of the new page to add.

Similar to the Add Page macro, this will create a new page, which may be based on a template if so desired.

Notes about migration

  • Some legacy Macro parameters from the Confluence Server are not supported yet. More details are on our FAQ page. As seen below, we have tagged these parameters with a (Legacy) prefix.

  • Server users migrating to the Cloud will not lose any data.

  • Live Template created using Linking for Confluence macro needs to be migrated to retain Scaffolding data. The source page and template have to be present in the Cloud. For more information, check here.

  • Some server-version parameters are current.” It uses a Scaffolding Forms & Templates's Live Template macro to import and execute the current value of the template every time the page is viewed.
