# Add cards to a Confluence page

To add cards to a Confluence page, insert the **Cards (Capable)** macro. Each card has a **Title**, **Description**, optional **Image** and a **Link** to a Confluence page or a web address. Select **Add card** for more, drag them into order, then set columns, colours and hover effect on the **Style** tab.

## Before you start

* You need permission to edit the page.
* Capable Formatting, or the Capable suite, must be installed on your Confluence site.
* One macro holds up to 100 cards.

## Steps

1. Edit the page, type **/cards** and choose **Cards (Capable)**, or **Cards macro (Capable)** in the standalone app.
2. On the **Content** tab, enter the card's **Title** and **Description** and, if you like, an **Image**.
3. Set the card's **Link** to a Confluence page (start typing the page name) or a web address.
4. Select **Add card** for each extra card, and drag cards into order.
5. On the **Style** tab, choose **Columns**, **Gap**, **Hover effect**, **Show images** and **Show descriptions**, then publish.

## A few things that catch people out

* Card colours can come from your site's brand palette, so a set of cards matches the rest of your pages.
* For cards that list pages automatically, such as a page's children, use the Search Cards macro from Capable Search instead.
