In this issue, we’ll share practical ways to manage your Confluence pages more effectively, plus a special Wicked surprise waiting for you at the end.
New Year, Better Confluence Pages
By mid-January, those shiny New Year’s resolutions are often no longer at the top of the list. Some goals quietly slipped away. Others turned out to be harder to put into practice than expected.
But now is the perfect moment to refocus. Not on big, abstract promises, but on the changes that will make the new year more successful. Small, intentional improvements that will stick and make everyday work easier.
For many teams, that starts with how knowledge is managed in Confluence.
Let’s take a look at how to level up your knowledge game in 2026.
Quick Wins to Manage Your Confluence Content
You don’t need a big cleanup initiative to get there. A few small, well-chosen actions can already make a noticeable difference.
Move Pages
Just like our goals, Confluence pages sometimes end up in places that no longer fit. Then it’s time to act!
Move a page when:
-
A project page has grown into a full-blown process.
-
A decision page is now a company-wide guideline.
-
Ownership shifts and a page needs a new home with a different team.
-
Page analytics show that the content is being accessed far beyond its original scope.
You can move pages within a space by a simple drag-and-drop in the content tree. If you have space admin permissions, you can also move pages between spaces. Just select the target space in the move dialog.
Hide Pages
If a page should remain accessible but doesn’t belong in the navigation tree, move it to the root level of the space. This keeps the page available for links and includes, without adding noise to the page tree.
Archive Pages When Their Job Is Done
Another habit worth adopting in 2026 is archiving pages.
Old project docs, outdated forms, or retired policies… You don’t need them every day anymore, but deleting them feels wrong. And rightly so.
That’s where archiving comes in.
When you archive a page in Confluence, it disappears from the page tree – similar to hiding a page. The difference is that archived pages are also removed from default search results.
Archiving preserves everything: the content itself, version history, comments, labels, and permissions. Nothing is deleted. The page remains fully intact and can be restored at any time if needed.
If you want to know more about that topic, you can read our newsletter on what happens when you archive a page.

Get Wicked Good With Confluence
These are just a few tips we’d like to share for now. They’ll help you work more effectively and get the most out of Confluence. If you’re ready to go deeper, you’ll find even more practical guidance in our article on how to manage pages in Confluence.
In that spirit, we want to remind you of one of K15t’s values: Have Fun, Seriously.
Because work doesn’t have to be dull to be useful. Knowledge can be clear and a little magical.
Proof of that? Our original Confluence-meets-Wicked video.
We genuinely care about Confluence and about building great Confluenc-ity together. Sharing knowledge is what we do best, and we believe learning works best when it’s engaging, human, and even a little fun. Sometimes, that means defying gravity and dancing in Barcelona to make things click.
As a Weekly Dose of Confluence subscriber, you get exclusive early access to the video - and yes, you can share it with your friends and other musical fans and Confluence geeks! The official premiere for non-members is in the coming days.
