This page describes how to add a comment on a Confluence page.

Step-by-step guide

Add page comments

One way to use comments is to add a comment to an entire page. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Confluence page you want to comment.
  2. Scroll to the bottom of the page
  3. Type a comment in the comment field
  4. Select Save

When you comment on a page, you will automatically start 'watching' that page. That means you'll receive email notifications when others add comments or changes to the page are made. Your teammates can reply to or 'like' your page comments. If they do, you'll be notified.

Add inline comments

You can also add comments within the page, inline on any text. Inline comments can be added when you are either editing or viewing a page. Here's how to add an inline comment:

  1. Highlight the text you'd like to comment on
  2. Click the comment icon that appears above the highlighted text
  3. Type your comment and select Save

After you save your comment, the text on the page will be highlighted in yellow. To view comments, click any yellow highlighted text on the page. Just like page comments, your teammates can reply to or 'like' your inline comments.
