Creating New Pages

When you want to create a page, first navigate to its "parent page" under which you wish to add the new page. Then click on the Createbutton on the top of the page. The new page will then be created as a child of the current page you had opened. On top you will also see the hierarchy of the page. For more details on how to create a page in confluence, see this: https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONF20/Creating+a+New+Page. 

Moving a Page to a New Parent

If you wish to move a page to a new location, just click on the Move button for the page. Then on the pop-up, type the name of the new Parent page. If you just wish to instead re-order the page location (keeping the parent same), then click on the Reorder checkbox, and click Move. You will then get a drag option to re-order the page.

Creating Diagrams

Confluence provides us the Giffy Plugin to create a new diagram. The advantage of using this plugin is that anyone can edit the diagram, since the plugin works within the browser. Just use the "Insert" Menu option above to insert the Giffy Diagram.
