I've been looking into this, and it seems there's a problem due to a format change. It's important to know what version of Confluence you're dealing with.

It seems Confluence 3.x and earlier used Confluence Wiki Markup format for their pages. Beginning with 4.0, Atlassian changed to the more expressive Confluence Storage Format. Unfortunately, for importing, they didn't add support for the new format. So:

- If you produce pages in Confluence Storage Format (the modified XHTML), you can't import them to Confluence. - If you produce pages in Confluence Wiki Format and try to add them to Confluence 4.0 directly via API (as the sourceforge dita2wiki tool does), they will not be accepted because of the format change.

It should still be possible to produce pages in Confluence Wiki Format and upload them to Confluence 4.0 via the "Import pages from disk" feature. For DITA users, this might involve unbundling a transform I assume is in the dita2wiki project, to support writing the output to local files instead of directly to Confluence.

I gather it's also possible to add Wiki Format pages via API and invoke Atlassian's own converter to change them to Confluence Storage Format, but no one in the sourceforge community has fully taken this on.

Hi Jeremy

Make that *SIX *MIF2Go users; I care about Confluence too. ;-)

I played with DITA, Confluence and WebWorks ePublisher a while ago, and I think I somehow managed to import a collection of files into Confluence. Maybe this can help?
