I would like to add one single list multiple choice custom field to a confluence page/template.
Please suggest how to achieve this in confluence.

What are you trying to accomplish? When the users creates a page from the template do you want them to select an option from the list?

If that is the case then you can use a template variable.

Select list as your variable type and enter a comma separated list.

When you create a page from that template it will have you select one of the values prior to creating the page and put that value in the spot where the variable was place in the template.

Thanks for your inputs.

Yes, when the users creates a page from the template we would like them to select an option from the list i,e template variable and this variable list/values should be common accross the Space.

Means we need to have a Components (i,e template variable) and it's values will be filled by Release prime and accessable by all users creates pages to write the product requirements and map with the component values updated in the variable.

Hi @manjunatha k r 

You can solve this with the Dropdown Select macro from Simple Toolkit for Confluence. It lets you add single or multi-select lists directly to your Confluence Cloud pages, so your team can easily choose one or several values without workarounds.

Simple Toolkit also includes other handy macros (Dynamic Status, Hyperlinked Buttons, Progress Bar) that make Confluence more interactive and collaborative. It’s priced affordably — and completely free for teams of up to 10 users — which makes it a practical solution for organizations of any size.

On a page you could use our free Add-on Easy Dropdown Menu: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/eps.focuspro.EasyDropdownMenu/server/overview

Thanks for your inputs.

I am checking this add-on, how it can be mapped(i,e Drop down menu values) to each requirements captured in the multiple pages under same space we are going to create.

the free Add-on seems to be not so free...
