![]() ![]() And maybe it's not a good idea anyway, because people could rearrange pages accidentially while browsing. Regarding the page order: I added this point later after reading this: īut now that I am thinking about it I am not sure that it was ever possible do reorder pages directly in the page tree. It's the same principle like on any webpage: Present the home page plus a navigation at the same time. Having the page tree on the left and the home page on the right was simply perfect. But then the space home page is not visible anymore and you have to click again to bring it back. Yes, once you have clicked on «Pages» in a specific space this is the default next time you open that space. On the other hand, I can not confirm that «the new navigation still offers times better performance and page loads than the old» – my experience so far was just the other way round. ![]() Let me quickly reply to some of these points:Īs I said, there were improvements in the last days and I really appreciate these. ![]() It exists when you click on "Pages" in your space and its in the top right. <- There actually is a more prominent Reorder Pages button than before now that allows you to reorder pages. You can not manually rearrange the page order in the page tree anymore.Looks like its happening but only on some edge cases, we are adding it to our current sprint. When I find a page through full text search, quite often the page tree does not unfold, so I don't see the position of that page in the page hierarchy.So, the extra click to get to 'Pages' should be saved on subsequent visits to the space. <- Once you are on 'Pages' in a specific space, it will always then remember that this was your last top item visited and take you there next time you go to that space. It is not instantly visible when you open a space, you have to click the «Pages» icon first, and even then it does not appear in the sidebar, but on the right hand side.Nevertheless, this complaint does not go unnoticed. The new navigation still offers times better performance and page loads than the old, and so overall the experience performance wise is better. (Atlassian made some improvements here recently, but still.) <- We are working on improvements to the page tree. The new page tree takes significantly more time to load.Martin I actually replied to an email thread we have open, but just for the benefit of others- regarding the issues you mentioned. ![]() This will be the day when I'll start evaluating an alternative to Confluence Cloud. I just learned that the opt-out option will go away soon and that we will be forced to use the new UI soon. The new design is less compact, so you have less information on the same screen, and this is also true for the number of page tree entries you can see at once.(Atlassian made some improvements here recently, but still.) There are many aspects to it, but the new page tree is the worst part of something that looks nice, but is terrible to use. I am very happy to see that other Confluence users share my frustration about the new UI. The 'New Confluence Experience' claims to clean things up with the contextual menus, but the dynamic behavior confuses users and the new icons, fonts and line spacing is clunky and wastes huge amount of space.īottom line: sidebars and menus should be complete configurable by site admin with the 'legacy' and the 'new experience' provided as the out-of-the-box options. We have customized sidebars that rely on having the page tree the default view. (It's like all the gnashing of teeth when the markup was deprecated - but at least that had technical justification and useful vestiges were left).Īt least for our mission sites supporting operational activities are self-hosted so we won't be upgrading those for the next few years. I've opened a feedback issue but we're probably screwed. I immediately advised our user base to 'opt out' but as of Aug 24 we are going to be stuck with the clunky, ugly and infuriating "New Confluence Experience". This caught us off guard too when suddenly the "New Confluence Experience" (WTF are they a Disney ride now?) appeared upon login. ![]()
