With the pre-formatted advance styling of Rich Links, content details are "pushed" to a destination page from a linked page. (This can greatly enhance the user experience, adding contextual information where it's needed, without weighing a page down unnecessarily.)

What the rich link macro looks for:

  • Graphic
  • Title
  • Description
  • Space name & space icon (always taken from available Confluence information)

There is a default sequence of places that a macro displaying rich links will go to look for what it needs to display. The first place it looks is the first block on the destination page that has the "Meta Properties" tag selected.

You'll find it here:

Theme Press Control Panel > Page tab > Block > Handling > Meta Properties

For tight control over rich link content display, it's advantageous to create a first block on the destination page that is hidden and will be used ONLY for a rich link, but will otherwise be invisible to users. In addition to the Meta Properties check box being selected for the block, also set the Initial Display to collapse.

If there is no block with Meta Properties selected, the content will be found according to the following scheme:
