Navigating Pages by Labels - Label set filters on usage

XMLWordPrintable

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

      Current functionality

      Currently when you navigate by labels you can add or remove additional labels to your selection. When you select a label the results that are returned provide "Related Labels". Selecting the first additional related label filters the results further. Beyond a combination selection "X+Y" related labels is not as effective as it could be.

      For example access the label for macro in Confluence Documentation space
      Now select the label "plugin".
      Results are further refined; macro+plugin.

      Now select "column" resulting in macro+plugin+column
      No results are returned.

      Consider enhancing the UI/navigational element of the labels by providing better "filtering" of labels.

      For example, after making the macro+plugin selection, the resulting "related labels" would only contain labels that are being utilized on the results for macro+plugin.

      The resulting effect is that the user would be able to "drill down" and further refine their set of results from the label results page. This kind of filtering mechanism would be very powerful for navigating and locating information.

      Thanks for the consideration.
