Features & How-To
This section covers all the features of Markdown Exporter for Confluence in detail.
Core Features
Page Tree Navigation
The left panel shows a hierarchical tree of all pages under your selected parent. Pages are displayed with their full nesting, and each row shows:
- A checkbox for selection
- A collapse/expand toggle for pages with children
- The page title with in-tree search highlighting
- The generated filename preview (e.g.
my-page-2026-01-08.md) below the title - An attachment count badge
- A preview button (eye icon) to see rendered markdown before exporting
- A per-page export button for individual page downloads
Export Configuration Panel
The right panel contains all export settings. Changes take effect on the next export — there's no need to refresh.

Supported Confluence Elements
The exporter converts the following Confluence content to Markdown:
Text formatting: Bold, italic, strikethrough, inline code, headings (H1–H6), block quotes, horizontal rules
Lists: Ordered, unordered, nested, and task lists with checkboxes
Tables: Standard tables with header rows and column alignment
Code: Inline code and fenced code blocks with language-specific syntax highlighting
Media: Images with alt text, file attachment links
Confluence panels: Info, warning, note, success, and tip panels — rendered as GitHub-style callouts, blockquotes, or plain text depending on your Panel / Callout Style setting
Links: External links preserved as-is; internal Confluence page links converted to relative .md paths (or [[wikilinks]] in Obsidian mode)
Page macros: Expand macros, table of contents, status labels, user mentions (as @Name text)
