Edit Version Prefix

In Confluence, it is not possible for two pages to have the same title in a single space. As a result, Scroll Documents adds a prefix to every page in a version of a document to work around this limitation. When saving a version, the version name is used as the default prefix, e.g. if you have chosen a version name like - 1.0.0, then the prefix will be (1.0.0).

Learn more about why version prefixes are useful and about how to use duplicate page titles within a document version.

But there may be situations where you would like to change this prefix, for example:

• If you choose to rename the version, or

• You would like a different prefix scheme

In which case, you can use the Change prefix option to update the prefix of all pages of a version in bulk.

Change Prefix

Or
