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.

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

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

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 menu is not displayed.

Configuration

For the configuration of Space Shuttle administrator permissions are needed.

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

Categories

To add a new category, fld and clickingclick on Add new categoryngivi.


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.

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.

If a category exists and you want to add spaces, click the Add spaces button when hovering over the category row.

Links

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 URL.

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

Permissions

SINCE VERSION 2.3.0, it is possible to add permissions to links and categories. Permissions can be set for confluence groups.

If nothing is specified, the link/ category is accessible to any user (even not logged in users).

Sorting

In the configuration view, the space shuttle elements (categories, spaces, links) can be sorted and reordered through drag and drop.

This makes navigation configuration easy and straightforward.
