Confluence Docs 3.0 : Network Macro This page last changed on May 31, 2009 by ggaskell. The Network macro displays a list of Network interactions between users in your Confluence site, on your Confluence page or blog. The Network macro allows you to specify the user whose network interactions you wish to show. These interactions include the users that the specified user is following or users who are following the specified user. The Network macro depicts each listed user by their profile picture. It also provides a choice of two themes and the ability to limit the number of users in the list.

## Parameters Parameters are settings for Confluence macros that allow the user to control their content or presentation. The table below lists relevant parameters for this macro. Parameter names are displayed differently in the macro browser interface and in wiki markup. Below, parameter names used in the macro browser are indicated in Bold text, while their equivalents in wiki markup are indicated in (`bracketed`) text. If the latter is not shown, then in wiki markup, the parameter's name should be omitted and only its value should be added immediately after the colon symbol (`:`).
Parameter | Required in Wiki Markup? | Default | Description
--- | --- | --- | ---
Username (`username`) | no | current user's username | The username of the Confluence user whose network interactions you wish to show. If no username is specified, then current user's (that is, your) network interactions are shown.
Mode | no | following (followers in the Wiki Markup editor) | Determines if this macro lists users who the specified user is following (following) or users who are following the specified user (followers).
Theme (`theme`) | no | full | The full theme depicts users with large versions of their profile pictures and if your network associations are shown in following mode, provides an entry field function to follow more users. The tiny theme depicts users with small versions of their profile pictures only.
Maximum Results (`max`) | no | no limit imposed up to a maximum of 30 | Restricts the amount of users shown by this macro to the number specified. If the number of users exceeds the specified maximum, then a Show All link is provided. This link leads to the specified user's Network view, showing the complete list of network interactions depicted by this macro.
