Confluence 1.4 has reached end of life
Check out the [latest version] of the documentation
A template is a pre-defined page that can be used as a prototype when creating new pages. Templates are useful for giving pages a common style or format. For example, a software development project may have a template for use-cases, or a systems administration space, a template for defining what information is being kept about each server.
In Confluence, there ate two types of templates.
- Global Templates : These are defined by the site administrators from the global administration pages, and are available in every space.
- Space Templates: These are defined by space administrators in the space administration screens, and are only available in the space in which they are defined.
Templates are written in Confluence's regular wiki markup, using special markup to define form fields that need to be filled in.
Here is an example of a template:
