Enabling and Disabling AutocompleteYou can turn off the triggering of autocomplete by the '[' and '!' characters. This will prevent the autocomplete from starting automatically when you press one of the trigger characters. You can also turn it back on again. Notes: - This setting does not affect the keyboard shortcuts for autocomplete (Ctrl+Shift+K and Ctrl+Shift+M). Even if the trigger characters are disabled, you can still use the keyboard shortcuts for autocomplete.
- This setting affects only you. Other people using Confluence can enable or disable the setting on their user profiles independently.
- Note that autocomplete is enabled by default.
To enable or disable the autocomplete trigger characters: - Choose your profile picture at top right of the screen, then choose Settings.
- Choose Editor under 'Your Settings' in the left-hand panel.
- Choose Edit.
- Either:
- Disable autocompletion by selecting Disable Autocomplete.
- Enable autocompletion by clearing Disable Autocomplete.
- Choose Submit.
