A template is a predefined page that can be used as a prototype when creating new pages. Templates are useful for giving pages a common style or format. You can use regular Confluence markup to create the content of your template. You can also use special markup to define form fields that the author will fill in when creating the page.

This page tells you how to add a global template that will be available in every space across the Confluence site. You need Confluence Administrator permission to create global templates. Space administrators can create page templates for a specific space. See our guide to adding a space template.

To add a global template:

  1. Go to the Global Templates option in the Confluence Administration Console, as follows:
    1. Choose Browse > Confluence Admin.
    2. Enter your password and click Confirm. You will be temporarily logged into a secure session to access the 'Administration Console'.
    3. Select Global Templates in the left-hand panel.
    4. Click Add New Global Template.
  2. Enter a name for your template in the Name box and an optional description in the Description box.
  3. Using regular wiki markup and form field markup (if you are using forms), enter content in the text-entry box as you would in any other Confluence page.
  4. Click Edit next to Labels if you want to use labels to categorise information. Add your labels. These labels will be included in all pages created using this template.
  5. Preview and click Save.
