Managing tasks on a page:

  • When viewing a page, you and other viewers can mark tasks as complete or incomplete.
  • To be able to update a task list when in view mode, you need permission to edit the page:

What if the update fails?

This section describes what you should do if Confluence displays an error message saying that your change to a task list could not be saved. The cause is probably one of the following:

  • Your session has expired. Resolution: Log in and update the task list again.
  • You do not have permission to update the task list. Resolution: Check your permissions. You need 'Create page' permission in the space. Please check also that there are no page restrictions that prevent you from editing the page.
  • The network is down. Resolution: Please try again when the network is available.
