Problem

In Confluence, clicking the gear icon redirects users to a separate page with all configuration options. This approach differs from Jira, where the gear icon offers a convenient dropdown menu with direct access to essential features. This inconsistency in user experience can lead to inefficiencies and confusion for users who work with both Confluence and Jira.

Suggested Solution

Introduce a dropdown menu for the gear icon in Confluence, mirroring Jira's functionality. This would provide users with quick access to key configuration options directly from the icon, promoting consistency and ease of use across both platforms.

Why This Is Important

Aligning the navigation experience between Confluence and Jira enhances user familiarity and reduces the learning curve. Consistent design patterns improve workflow efficiency and user satisfaction, fostering a seamless transition between the two products.

Workaround

Currently, users must manually navigate to the configuration page in Confluence. This can be cumbersome and time-consuming compared to the streamlined access provided in Jira.
