Customising the Dashboard

If you are a Confluence Administrator, you can customise the global dashboard, affecting the way all users will see the dashboard.

Confluence users can customise their view of the dashboard too. See the user's guide.

Sending Users to a Space Home Page instead of the Dashboard

See Configuring the Site Home Page.

Editing the Top Left-Hand Section of the Dashboard

See Editing the Site Welcome Message.

Modifying the Global Template or Layout

You can also modify files to add content to the global dashboard.

To make modifications to the dashboard, modify the global template /confluence/decorators/global.vmd or the layout at Administration >> Layouts >> Global Layout.

For example, search the Global Layout for these macros:

                $helper.renderConfluenceMacro("{recently-updated-dashboard:dashboard|showProfilePic=true|types=page,blogpost,comment}")
                $helper.renderConfluenceMacro("{favpages:maxResults=$maxFavouritePages}")

To modify the bundled plugin macros used in the Confluence dashboard:

1. Modify the atlassian-bundled-plugins.zip file located at <Confluence install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/setup.
2. Update the confluence-dashboard-macros-x.x.jar file, rezip it and then put it back to <Confluence install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/com/atlassian/confluence/setup. Refer to How to edit files in Confluence JAR files.
3. Delete the JAR from <confluence-home>/bundled-plugins.
4. Confluence を再起動します。

To customise the space list, you can work with spacelist.vm.
