This page describes the drag-and-drop functionality in Confluence, and the browser configurations needed to support that functionality.

Overview of the drag-and-drop features

Confluence supports these forms of drag-and-drop:

  • Drag-and-drop within the editor. Working inside the editor panel, you can drag an image or a macro and drop it into a different location on the page.

  • Drag-and-drop for external images and files. You can drag a file from a location outside Confluence, and drop it directly into the editor. For example, try it with images, video files, audio files, Office documents, and PDF files. The contents of the file will be embedded into the page or blog post.

Initial use with Google Gears

When adding an attachment to a page or blog post in your Confluence site for the first time after Google Gears has been installed, you will be prompted to allow Google Gears to trust your Confluence site. If this warning message appears, choose I trust this site. Allow it to use Gears and then choose Allow.
