Paragraph

The Paragraph macro wraps content in a <p> tag with optional class and styles defined in your global CSS style sheet, or in the CSS Style sheet macro that you can add to the page. The <p> tag is used to define a paragraph of text.

Add a Paragraph to your page

Navigate to the page you want to edit.
Click Edit.
Click Insert More Content → Other Macros.
Select the Paragraph macro from the Macro Browser.

Define your Paragraph macro using any of the following parameters:


Parameter	Description	Type	Default
ID	Specify a unique ID for this element. Use this to link to Tooltip, Dialog, or Rollover Macros. If using this parameter to apply styling to the element, do not include the # selector.	string	none
Class	Use in combination with Global Confluence CSS or a CSS Stylesheet macro that you have added to your page. Enter the CSS class name(s) to apply to the macro (case sensitive); multiple classes can be separated by a space or comma. Do not include the `.` selector in the class name.	string	none
Style	Option to apply an inline style, using CSS, to an individual div tag body content; useful for adding borders or padding, e.g. `border: 3px solid-red`. This style does not need to be defined in a CSS Stylesheet macro.	string	none
Title	Enter text to display to users as a tooltip.	string	none
Text Direction	You can choose ltr (left to right) or rtl (right to left)	single select	none
Language Code	Enter a language code if you want to specify that the element content language is different from the default language of your page, e.g. `de` for German. Browsers will identify that the content is written in German.	string	none

Note: At least one parameter must be specified. Although not strictly required to insert the macro on a page, the macro does require one of the parameters above to be specified to function properly.

Click Insert. The macro placeholder displays.
Enter the text that you want to wrap within the defined paragraph parameters.
Save the page to view the paragraph rendered with the defined styling.
