Allow Titles to be part of a Page Template

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      This is a feature request to allow page titles to be part of a page template. This would allow template creators to enforce a standard page title in a format required. For example, they might want to enforce a title of

      CR-XXX XXXXXXXX

      Where X is a sample value, so a sample page would be

      "CR-123 My CR Title"

      This would help by standardising page titles, and allowing users to follow a convention. When it comes to using things like the checklist macro - it would make things much easier there.

            They can but it seems you have limited it to space key, space name or date - Thats a start but all our documentation uses a sequence number and documents of a certain type have a common prefix like Functional Spec Docs are called FSDNNN xxx where NNN is a sequence number and xxx is the unique document name - still not supported in 5.2 ?

            Titles can now be part of the page template with the "Create from template macro" updates in the upcoming Confluence 5.2

            I agree, this appears very simple, is it possible to just add a temporary title into the Template GUI?

            E.g. XXX - Database. The user then just needs to replace XXX with the name he chooses. While it could be a lot more sophisticated (e.g. Using parent page titles etc like some of Scaffolding/Reporting Functions) with pre and post injections etc, I think something as simple as a temporary title would satisfy most users.

            No action on this in over three years? Where are you Atlassian? This is a simple request that many people want.
