The Rich Text editor provides users accustomed to html or other standard text editing applications, an easier and faster way to creating Confluence pages. It allows you to enter content as you would in a Word document, and apply formatting simply by clicking icons on a toolbar.

If you are loyal to wiki markup, you can continue to use it. The 'Edit' screen lets you switch between 'Rich Text' and 'Wiki Markup' edit modes without losing the changes you've made; so you can use a combination of both while editing. For instance, you can use the rich text editor to change the text colour and then switch to wiki markup to create links.

You can also default to either 'Wiki Markup' or 'Rich Text' depending on your preference.

Note

A site administrator will need to Enable Rich Text Editing from the Administration Console before you can start using the Rich Text editor
