This guide is interesting for you, if you just installed "SubSpace Navigation for Confluence" or if you want a better understanding of how to quickly configure your SubSpace Navigation. The guide explains the most important steps, but is not intended to be as complete and detailed as the User's and Administrator's Guide in our documentation.
To get started with the SubSpace Navigation you can experience how the add-on works with the already configured example navigation or you can start from scratch with your own navigation.
Get to Know the SubSpace Navigation with our Demo Navigation
We have created a little demo to show you what our add-on can do. After installing the add-on, you will see an example navigation at the top of your Confluence pages. It includes some sample navigation elements like personalized links to your favorite content ("saved for later") and your last modified content as well as an external link.
