Strategies for Building Community in the Workplace
A strong community at work boosts your company’s success. Let us guide you in creating
It’s an uncomfortable truth: if your documentation is shoddy, unstructured, and quite frankly boring, no one will read it; some may skim over your pages as a polite gesture, but important information will be lost, sprints derailed, agile coaches stressed as they step in to manage the miscommunication, it’s not a good thing. Within Agile frameworks like Sprints and Kanban boards, effective communication is paramount. Poor communication and misalignment in dev ops are disastrous; inadequate communication breeds frustration, erodes morale, and undermines production.
If your Confluence pages are boring, then you need help. Today’s teams work in oceans of information, and a mundane Confluence page does you no favors. Getting your message across requires making the content presentable and readable. You need structure to create a great Confluence page; a well-thought-out layout attracts attention, provides a clear message, is the foundation of beautiful Confluence pages, and helps tell the story. However, only some people are HTML experts, and trying to create superb layouts in Confluence can be painful and time-consuming for the amateur.
That’s why many Confluence users turn to Confluence editor tools; here, we will examine Templates and Macros and see how creators can transform their pages from bland to brilliant.
Below, we have shown some before-and-after examples of Confluence pages built using Aura Content Formatting Macros compared to pages built just using Confluence’s native page toolset.
Confluence offers several basic styling tools, which are displayed in the toolbar below.
These allow the user to customize the page, alter the text, make it bold or italic, justify it, and change the text color. They can also add built-in points or numbered paragraphs, links, images, emojis, etc.
Confluence also offers several other tools that are a step up from those in the toolbar. These include Templates, a table of contents function or macro, an Info Panel, and a Divider. See examples below.
Table of Contents – reads the headers used in the page contents and automatically constructs a table of contents.
The info panel – is incredibly useful when emphasizing an important point or issue.
The Divider – a simple yet elegant means of separating differing content areas.
Templates and Atlassian native macros are pretty powerful and take Confluence content to the next level, but it is a limited tool set, and after a while, Pages all start to look the same. Important ideas and points can get lost in a sea of blandness. This is where the Atlassian marketplace comes into play; the marketplace offers hundreds if not thousands of formatting tools, allowing users to really customize pages to provide more punch and impact. The macros themselves are straightforward to use; the more complex ones come with reams of documentation. Adding a simple macro or two can truly transform your Confluence content. Great content promotes open dialogue, using Macros promotes collaboration and transparency.
Aura lifts Confluence content to new levels with one macro to rule them all.
This user-friendly macro suite empowers you to create stunning and engaging pages and includes the following macros.
