Confluence Docs 3.0 : Content by User Macro This page last changed on Jun 01, 2009 by ggaskell. The Content by User macro generates a tabulated list of all current content items created by a specified Confluence user throughout a Confluence installation. These items include any existing page, comment or space created by a specified user. The table generated is divided into three columns and each item listed within it is hyperlinked directly to its corresponding page, page's comment or space's dashboard.
| Please note the following points: Each item in the table is represented by the name of its page or space. Each comment item contains two hyperlinked components separated by a greater-than sign (>). The first hyperlink leads to the page itself while the second leads directly to the comment further down the page. The second hyperlink is represented by the name of the page, preceded by Re:.

Below, parameter names used in the macro browser are indicated in Bold text, while their equivalents in wiki markup are indicated in (`bracketed`) text.
