Confluence administrators can add a site-wide banner, i.e. a message or alert that will appear at the top of every page on your Confluence site.

Screenshot: Example of a Site-Wide Banner



To add a site-wide banner,

  1. Go to the Confluence 'Administration Console'. To do this:

    • Open the 'Browse' menu and select 'Confluence Admin'. The 'Administrator Access' login screen will be displayed.
    • Enter your password and click 'Confirm'. You will be temporarily logged into a secure session to access the 'Administration Console'.
  2. Click 'Custom HTML' in the 'Look and Feel' section of the left-hand panel.
  3. Click 'Edit'.
  4. Add the following code to the 'At end of the HEAD' textbox.
    <!-- Message Banner -->
    <div style="background-color: yellow; border: 2px solid red; margin: 4px; padding: 2px; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;">
    Your important message...
    </div>
  5. Click 'Save'.

If you want the banner across the bottom of the page, you should add the code to the 'At end of the BODY' textbox instead.

If your banner significantly increases the height of your Confluence site footer, you may need to add HTML to allow for the extra height of a custom footer.
