The Nolink (or nl) macro allows you to enter a web address or URL, without the browser automatically hyperlinking the URL.

Usage with the Macro Browser

To insert the Nolink macro into a page using the Macro Browser,

  2. Click the Macro Browser icon on the toolbar. The macro browser window will open.

Parameters

Parameters are options that you can include in Confluence macros to control the content or format of the macro output. The table below lists relevant parameters for this macro.

Parameter names are different in the macro browser and in wiki markup. Below we show the macro browser parameter names in bold text, and the equivalent wiki markup parameters in (bracketed) text. If we do not show any parameter name for the wiki markup, then you should leave out the parameter name and simply include the parameter value as the first parameter, immediately after the colon (:).

Parameter Required in Wiki Markup? Default Description
URL no none The web address or URL that you do not want the browser to automatically hyperlink.
