Page Restrictions Dialog Renders Blank or Doesn't Pop up at All
Symptoms
Either you've recently upgraded or not, if you're on Confluence 3.3 or above:
- In some cases, clicking the padlock icon or accessing the
Restrictions
does not yield anything. No pop-up, no error.
Firebug or Chrome Developer tools shows 403 ongetpagepermissions.action
when clicking on theTools >> Restrictions
. - The page restrictions dialog box renders blank. The title is 'page.perms.dialog.heading' instead of 'Page Restrictions':
Cause
There is a custom Page Layout set either at the space level or global level. Specifically, the custom layout does not include this line of code, which is introduced since Confluence 3.3:
#parse("/decorators/includes/page-content-includes.vm")
Resolution
Ensure that the line of code above exists in the custom layout. For example:
...
<div id="content" class="page $!mode">
#parse("/decorators/includes/page-content-includes.vm")
## MODE SPECIFIC DECORATING BEGINS
...
Alternatively, revert the custom layout to default:
- Copy the custom Page Layout for backup purposes
- Reset the Page Layout to default
