Community Bubbles adds the social element to your Confluence Wiki with a set of over 25 macros that provide forum and community capabilities.
Features & Benefit
The Community Bubbles plugin enhances collaboration and encourages interaction within your wiki by letting people connect and discuss.
Forums let you turn any space into discussion boards
- They can be easily added to any space
- Icons highlight trending topics
- You can pin important sticky topics to the top of the forum

- You can display group member directories and links to easily join/leave communities
- It simplifies space creation and allows delegation of group management beyond the site administrators
- You can send bulk emails - Email all users in a group, recent contributors, new users etc.
- Add portals and widgets for consistent community homepages
- As well as manage favourites and watchers
Enhance your User Profile pages
- There are macros to display your profile picture and information about yourself
- A range of macros to show your favourite things within the Wiki - users, spaces and pages
All of this can be easily administrated and the data backed-up with extensive configuration screens.
