In Confluence, you can leave a comment on any page or news item.

To add a comment, you require 'Create Comments' permission which is assigned by a space administrator from the Space Administration screens. See Space permissions or contact a space administrator for more information.

You can add a new comment or respond to a previous comment on the page (only available in 'threaded' view). Use regular Confluence markup when you add a comment.

Adding a new comment

  • If your page is in 'Show' comments view, look for the comments box at the bottom of the page.
    Type in your text and click 'Post' when you are done.

  • If your page is in 'Hide' comments view, look for the link to 'Add Comment' at the bottom of the page.
    Click on this link to open up the comments box. Type in your text and click 'Post'.

    This will open up a new comments box. Type in your text and click 'Post'.
