Setting a Page's Restrictions

Hello,

I got a question about setting the restrictions.

When I created pages, I did not set any "restrictions."

But, when I tried to allow a person to edit one page in my space, I went to "Edit" and add his username into a list of "Restrict editing of this page." However, he still could not edit this page. Then, I tried to change the "permission" under "sapce admin," and add him to be an individual user in my space, and open his permission to create a page. Then, it works. But the problem is that he can edit all page in my space. This is not my original purpose. 

Does it mean that if I expect that I may need to someone to edit some pages, I have to restrict pages to let me become the only persen who can edit pages when I create them in the beginning? That is to say, I have to set restrictions (only to me) for all pages when I create them in the beginning, then if I want to open the permission of some pages to some specific people, I can set a restriction for it later. Is that right?

Thank you so much.

hi,

I'm trying to restrict a user from viewing a page but when i go to check and see if they can view the page, they are still able to view the page. I followed the steps and made the restrictions like the guide states above. Did I forgot a step or something?

any way to ensure that all site admins always have the ability to edit a page regardless of page restrictions? Its a really a pain to search through the pages in order to unlock.

Hi,

Is it possible to restrict a page to all for people except for  those who  have edit permissions for that space?

Also is it possible to create a group of users with editing rights in a particular space?

Thnks,

How do I provide page level restrictions to Anonymous users?

It appears to me once an anonymous user has view access to a space via the Global and Space Admin restrictions they also inherit view rights to child pages and the ability to pick and choose which pages within the space an Anonymous user can see is not available. Is that the case?

Hi, i have a freelance working for me.
We don't have any specified permission except "can_use" for each user.
I'd like my freelance to only access a page and its children. But when i give him "can_use" global permission, he's able to see every space created in the wiki.

Any idea to give him only an access to my page and children ?

Regards.

Hi, I have been using confluence for over a year now and am very familiar with setting restrictions. However, today when I try to enter names and add them to the restriction list, it is just not acknowledging when I click the 'restrict' button after selecting the correct name. Nothing shows up. So I try it again, with a different name. Again, the same. I am ensuring I have selected all the correct options etc as I normally do so I know that is not the issue. It is almost like the function has been disabled, however, I have checked our permissions and I have full administrative access to all functions.
Could this be a bug by any chance?
I have tried doing this both in explorer and firefox and I am facing the same issue. I have also tested it using both parent and child pages and it won't let me set restrictions on either of them.

The only odd thing I am getting is the following code on the bottom of the page, however I think it is unrelated to this issue:
#contentTag("spacename", $helper.spaceName) #contentTag("spacekey", $helper.spaceKey)

Any advice please?

Is there a way to set page restrictions to all pages within a space without having to go into each page to do that?

Is there a way to restrict where users can Add pages within a space?  We would like a section of our space to allow people to add pages, but currently as soon as we give someone "Add" permissions they can add pages anywhere in the space.

Folks,

I was wondering if there was anyway of showing a list of who does have access to a page and who is restricted within a table on the page itself? for example I would like to add who can access this page and who is restricted within a pop kong custom tab, so the author can instantly see who can see what.

Thanks

While I was setting up my page, I set the page restrictions for me (and a colleague) to view and edit only. Now the page is ready to share and I cannot change the restrictions. The pop-up (from Tools/Restrictions and the Lock) shows who can view and edit the page but does not allow me to change anything. Suggestions?

If a page has Edit Restrictions, is commenting still available to users outside the chosen group?

Hi There,

If there are Edit Restrictions placed on a page, why can users that can't edit, add attachments? I figured that would be included in "Edit". Is there anything I can do so that normal users can't add attachments on a particular page? Note that I do want them to be able to add attachments throughout the space, just not on a particular page (and it's sub pages).

Thanks,
Bridget

I thought I remembered seeing this at the Atlassian conference, but is it possible to restrict just a section of a page so that just users in a particular permission group can see it and everyone else sees the page without that section?

Is there a way to restrict a particular version of  a page? Imagine the following use case: Someone accidently added critical content to a document, lets say some admin password. Even when I remove the password, it will still be accessible through the history. Therefore I want this particular version of the document locked.
