Features

SINCE VERSION 2.0.0

Space Shuttle simplifies the navigation between spaces in Confluence.

The app creates a new dropdown menu in the Confluence header which will be used as a shortcut to individual spaces or external links.

The spaces can be divided into categories and sub-categories (in the image above: "Customer" and "Projects" as categories and "Atlassian Customer" as sub-category).

(info)  Once set up, the Space Shuttle is visible for every user in Confluence.


Usage

The Space Shuttle can be used by every Confluence user. Only spaces the user has access to will be shown.

When space shuttle is activated but no categories are defined, the menuis not displayed.


Configuration

(info) For the configuration of Space Shuttle administrator permissions are needed.

The Space Shuttle can be set up via the Confluence administration → Space Shuttle Configuration.


Categories

To add a new category, a name has to be set by typing it in the text field and clicking Add new category.


The category will now be shown in the list.

Hovering over a category displays options to Rename it, Add spaces to it and Remove it.

(warning) Removing a category will automatically remove all containing elements (spaces, links).

Spaces

Spaces can be added to the Space Shuttle by clicking the Add spaces to Space Shuttle button.

In the opened pop-up window, these spaces can be added by clicking on the space name and can be sorted alphabetically by using the sorting buttons.

If a category exists and spaces should be added to this category, click the Add spaces button when hovering over the category row.

SINCE VERSION 2.1.0

Links can be added by clicking the Add links to Space Shuttle button, where you specify the link text and the actual URL.

These links can be Confluence links or external links. Like spaces, they can be added to categories and moved with drag and drop.

Links are opened in a new browser tab and are always visible, also for anonymous users.

Sorting

In the configuration view, the space shuttle elements (categories, spaces, links) can be sorted and reordered via drag and drop. This makes the navigation configuration very easy and straightforward.
