Feature Control
Admins can choose to turn off several features for the whole Confluence Instance. The features that can be turned off are:
Turning a feature off prevents users from using it. It does not remove any content already created with the feature.
Display Tabs as Links
By default, Tab titles are displayed as functional links. This allows users to share links to specific tabs. This behaviour can cause problems with some 3rd party software so can be turned off. To change this setting select the Display Tabs as Links section and toggle the options.
Numbered Headings
This toggle allows you to turn off the option for your users to apply Numbered Headings to a page. Turning this off removes the icon from the toolbar.
JavaScript
This toggle controls whether the HTML macro allows JavaScript execution. These settings are applied to the entire Confluence instance.
When JavaScript is enabled, users can write and execute custom JavaScript in their Mosaic HTML macros. This allows them to create interactive elements such as animations, dynamic content, and form handling. The code runs inside a sandboxed iframe with restricted permissions. Dangerous operations, including network requests and navigation, are blocked. This setting should be enabled only if administrators trust users to write their own code.
When JavaScript is disabled, the JavaScript tab is hidden in the Mosaic HTML macro screen. Existing macros continue to render their HTML and CSS, but any JavaScript is blocked from running. Users cannot create new interactive macros or edit existing JavaScript. Static HTML and CSS macros continue to work normally. This is the recommended setting when only trusted content is required.
Welcome Pop-up Management
By default new users are greeted with a pop-up giving them an introduction to Mosaic and some guidance how to get the most out of the app. If required this pop-up can be disabled for all users. You can find quickly get to the toggle by selecting Manage features when an admin users sees the welcome dialog.
