The wiki page layout simplify the content organization by section. 

The page layout management tool bar is available from the layout button :

  2. add / remove section
  3. move section

Add a section

  1. Choose the Page Layout  button in the toolbar
    The Page Layout toolbar appears.
  2. Choose Add Section

 

The new section appears below your current content, with the boundaries of the section(s) indicated by dotted lines (the dotted lines aren't visible when you view the page)

 

Change the column layout in a section

  1. Place your cursor in the section you wish to change
  2. Choose a layout from the page layout toolbar (for example, two columns or three columns)

 

Any text, images or macros in your section are not lost when you change the column layout. When you decrease the number of columns, Confluence will move your content to the left. When you increase the number of columns, Confluence will add blank columns to the right of your existing content.

Column width – The width of the columns are fixed. If you need more than three columns, or columns of a specific width, you should use the Section and Column macros

The Section and Column macros

You can use the Section and Column macros to add a set of columns to the page. The Section macro defines an area that will contain the columns. You can have as many sections as you like. Within each section, you can have as many columns as you like.

The Section and Column macros are useful if you want to define a specific percentage or pixel width for each column. 

To add a section and some columns to a page:

  1. In the Confluence editor, choose Insert > Other Macros
  2. Find the Section macro, select it and insert it onto the page
  3. Choose Insert > Other Macros again
  4. Find and insert the Column macro
  5. Add your content to the column
