To edit a news item, you require 'Create News' permission which is assigned by a space administrator from the Space Administration screens. See Space Permissions or contact a space administrator for more information.

To edit a news item,

  1. Click on the 'Browse Space' link for the space. This is located at the top of every page and beside the space link on the dashboard.

  2. Go to the 'News' tab. A list of the most recent news items within the space is presented. A calendar allows you to browse other news items. Locate the news item you wish to edit and click on its title. This will open up the news item.

  3. Click on the 'Edit' tab. This will bring up the 'Edit' screen. Use regular Confluence Markup to edit the news item.

  4. 'Preview' your changes if desired, and click 'Update'.

Editing a news item is similar to editing any other page in Confluence. However, there are a few differences you need to keep in mind while editing a news item:

  • You cannot change the title of a news item.
  • You cannot move a news item to another space.
  • A news item has no parent.
