The People Directory looks like this:
The 'Personal Space' icon
indicates that the person has set up a personal space.- If the 'Personal Space' icon appears beneath a person's name, clicking that person's name (or their picture) will take you to their personal space.
- If the 'Personal Space' icon does not appear beneath a person's name, clicking that person's name (or their picture) will display their user profile.
Searching for People
To search for a particular person, type their first name and/or last name into the search box and click the 'Search' button.
- To search everyone who uses your Confluence site, click the 'All People' link.
- To search just those people who have set up a personal space, click the 'People with Personal Spaces' link.
Favourite People
The People Directory includes anybody who has logged into Confluence or who has had a user account created for them in Confluence. The People Directory does not include users who can log into Confluence via external user management who have never logged in.
The top part of the People Directory screen displays any people that you have nominated as your favourites.
- To add a person to your Favourite People, click the grey star icon
- To remove a person from your Favourite People, click the yellow star icon
Once you add a person to your Favourite People, their personal space (if they have one) will be added to your list of favourite spaces on the Dashboard.
