You can customise the 'look and feel' of Confluence at both the global and space levels.

Any changes you make to the look and feel of the site at the global level will be applied as the default look and feel for all the spaces in the site. This means that any customisations will only be reflected in the "Default" theme. No other theme will have an impact from this change. An individual space can be configured to have its own look and feel through the space administration screens.  

(warning) Some functionality described on this page is restricted in Confluence OnDemand.

Here's how you can customise the look and feel of your site:

  • Colour Scheme : Change the colour scheme of the user interface.
  • Layouts : Change the site layout, which determines how the controls are laid out in the site. This does not change the actual page layouts, but it does change the way the surrounding controls appear in the page.
  • Themes : Use themes for advanced layout customisation.
