Confluence has had a lot of changes since it first began; when it first started, it was almost all editing in HTML, and required some fighting with it to get the styling just right as well as the contentand content right. Now, Confluence has included buttons on the Edit interface to make sure editors have all of the functionality that they need in order to create all of the items in a tutorial. If If you are interested in a more in-depth discussion of editing the website, please see the “Editing in HTML” portion in the Additional Resources page.
In order to edit the website, you will need administrator permission to do so; email ########## to ask for permission
Once logged in, the 'Edit' button becomes live, and you can access the Confluence editing interface.
Below is a list of all the functions in Edit mode that you would need to use in creating a module on SimCafe.
