You can create a page from anywhere within Confluence so long as you have the permission to create one.

There are two ways to add a new page:

1. Clicking on the 'Add Page' link located beside each space on the Dashboard or at the top of every page.

Click on the 'Add Page' link.
Enter a 'Title' for your page.
Specify parent page - If you add a new page from another page, Confluence will default the new page as a child of the first page. To choose a different parent, select it by clicking the 'Choose a Page' icon or use the Search facility (currently being built). Or else, simply type in the name of the parent page.
If you want to move the page to the root directory of a space, leave this field blank.
Choose the space where you want your page to be located from the drop down menu.
Enter content for your page.
'Preview' if desired. Click 'Add'.

2. Defining a link from withing a page.

In Confluence, you can create links to pages that do not as yet exist. This is a useful facility as it allows you to create links first and enter content for those pages later.

For example, Link to new page.
Click on the link to add content by following the same steps as above.

Pages in Confluence are written using a simple notation that allows for all the styles available in a standard text editor. And to help you along the way, the quick notation guide is conveniently placed beside the edit screen. Confluence also allows for some complex styling and formatting. Click on the full notation guide in your help window to learn more about these.
