The navigation menu offers your users an easy and comprehensive way of navigating through your Confluence site.

The Content Viz configuration can be accessed by Confluence administrators through the Confluence navigation at the top. Go to Apps > Content Viz.

 Clicking on a specific child entry within our parent entry dropdown enables us to modify its content. This includes changing the icon, title, description and link of each menu card. Additional parent entries can be created by clicking the + Add entry button, while new child entries are made by clicking the + prompt beneath the list of already existing child entries (if any).

The next step in the editing process could be applying links to menu entries, enabling us to jump to other pieces of content by clicking on them. Links can be applied via the navigation editor’s sidebar.

To find pages, we are able to filter through any or all spaces, which consist of pages. This counts for any spaces linked to our user account. Once a link option is applied, clicking on a menu entry leads to its corresponding space, website, or E-mail address.
