Page Status Macros
Asked by Jasmine Andrews:

I thought I read something last week that announced Confluence was introducing a new feature of Page Status macro. (There were also mentions of other features such as changes to whiteboards and some other collaboration tools)

I have been searching today for more info on it but can't find literally anything. I've searched here in the community, on youtube, and on google.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? Is it possible that I dreamed it?? (yes I do dream about work and Confluence when I have been working too hard!)

Perhaps you saw it here?

body: Hey [@Andy Gladstone](/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/3498028) thanks so much. I'm pretty sure it wasn't this exact piece that I read, but it has what I needed and more. The new panels look pretty cool too.

I may have come to terms with my tenuous grip on reality many years ago, but I am glad to know that this was an actual thing happening in the real world :)
