APPEARANCE
Pagination
Browse a long table in manageable pages without removing data from the view.
Save the default page size
The size you choose in the editor preview is saved with the macro and becomes the starting size for readers.
- 1
Edit the macro
Open the table configuration and look at the preview.
- 2
Choose rows per page
Below the preview, select 10, 20, 50, 100, or 500 from Rows per page.
- 3
Save the macro
Save or publish the page. That page size becomes the saved default.
A reader’s preference
Readers can change the size in the published table. Their choice is stored in their browser for their account and this macro; it does not change the saved default.
Pagination follows the current result
The controls apply to the rows currently present in the table. Filtering can reduce the number of pages, but it does not alter the source data or saved settings.
Automatic
There is no editor toggle to turn pagination on or off for every reader.
Data stays intact
It does not remove, edit, or export data differently; it only divides the current view into pages.
Only when needed
When the current result has no more rows than the selected page size, the pagination bar does not appear.
Pagination limits how many rows render per page. Table height instead limits the visible area of the table.
Example: review a large project register
A delivery team manages hundreds of project entries in Confluence.
- Before
- Team members would need to work through a very long result list to check owners, status, and next steps.
- With pagination
- The list starts in pages of 10 rows. For a quick overview, one reader changes to 50; for detailed review, they move page by page through the filtered result.
