Use this interactive demo to learn how to combine table cells in a Confluence page in just a few clicks.

Quick summary

Merging cells in a Confluence table lets you combine multiple columns or rows into a single, unified cell for cleaner data presentation. In just four steps, you can select cells, open the table formatting menu, and apply the Merge cells option directly in the Confluence editor.


Steps

  1. Click into your table to activate the table editor in Confluence.
  2. Select multiple cells in the same row by clicking and dragging your cursor across them.
  3. Click the down arrow button to access table formatting options.
  4. Select "Merge cells" from the formatting menu.
  5. Your merged cell is ready — add content to keep your table clean and organized.

📌 Why this matters

Merging cells in a Confluence table is a key formatting skill for teams who need to present structured data, project timelines, or reports clearly within their wiki pages. The ability to combine cells across rows or columns reduces visual clutter and helps readers scan complex information at a glance. For Confluence users managing documentation, roadmaps, or team wikis, clean table layouts directly improve readability and professionalism. This feature is built into the native Confluence editor, requiring no plugins or workarounds.
