Navigate to Confluence administration > Linchpin Navigation Menus > Personalization. Alternatively, click on the settings icon in your Linchpin header, then click on Menu > Personalization. Select up to three user profile fields to create a menu based on a user's profile. Assign menu entries inside the Menu Structure tab. If you allow anonymous users to view the menu, they will only be shown menu items without assigned field values. Now, with defined profile fields for personalization, head over the the Menu Structure tab. You can now define the profile field values for every menu entry. For example: Let's say you have chosen "Country" and "Branch" as your personalization attributes. Now, every time you add a menu entry, you can define what the fields "Country" and "Branch" should correspond to. For example, enter "USA" in the "Country" field and "Washington" in the "Branch" field. Your menu entry will only be shown to users with "Country: USA" and "Branch: Washington" defined in their user profile. For complete instructions on how to add personalized menu entries, head over to the "Add menu items" documentation. Wildcards and logical operators help to create even more complex filters based on Confluence user values. In the past, you have already been able to assign menu items to specific profile field values. Now you can also use wildcards in addition to those exact values. You can also create more complex filters using logical operators (AND, OR, NOT). For example: You could show a menu item to all users that have not selected English as their Confluence language ("NOT en*"). Wildcard / Operator Description Example Due to "Wildcards and logical operators", it is not possible to use key words in filter attributes. As a workaround, replace the key words with the same number of "?" signs. Or replace at least one letter of a word with a "?". These keys are case sensitive, so "And" or "and" would not match.
