Button
Buttons and links are the standard forms of communication between the user and the system. They are vital in creating interactions and providing a good UX. After all, these features make it possible for users to move about, take action, or decide with a single tap.
Adding a button to the page gives it a more eye-popping appeal since they usually have the highest emphasis on the web (or any other) page. But there's more to it than meets the eye. Buttons are among the most effective ways to increase conversions from one page to the next or your chosen goal page. The same goes for Confluence pages.
Examples
How to use
To add the Button macro to a Confluence page:
Choose “+” in the Confluence editor
Search “button” and select the MacroSuite - Button.
Alternatively, type '/' on the Confluence page to see a list of suggestions and type 'Button.' Intuitive configuration dialogue helps users to create and customize buttons fast and easily.
