Bug: when duplicating a page, it immediately gets published

[Eddy Witkamp]

New bug as of december 10th:

When duplicating a page, it immediately gets published.

@Marc -Devoteam- 
I have the same problem.

I generated the pages (not Live Doc) manually by Duplicate button, no automation used.

Before I could make a duplicate of a page and it was a draft. Now it gets automatically published with the name "Duplicate of..." and all the people mentioned (in previous page) get an e-mail notification for the (incomplete/draft) page, with old information. 

It stays as draft, when I use + sign to make a new page.

@Marc -Devoteam-  see....it's affecting multiple users

Hi @Eddy Witkamp 

Welcome to the community.

I can't reproduce this, tried it on multiple Confluences.

On my end they are drafts, until published.

Is there an automation rule active on the space, that triggers this?

[Eddy Witkamp]

All of my colleagues have the same issue (in Chrome Browser) leading to everyone receiving emails when they're tagged.

Where do I look for automation triggers?

As said, this wasn't an issue before and everyone is getting spammed with emails with info that's not complete, because people get no chance to write a Draft.

Hi @Eddy Witkamp 

Reading your comment, I am assuming someone had triggered an automation rule in your space. To see the automation rules, you will need to get added as one of the admin of the space your Confluence wiki is located.

Below is an example screenshot of the location to see the Automation rules:

I hope this helps!

Thanks,

" No rules created yet

Let Automation take care of the busywork, so your team can focus on work that matters. Create your own automation rules, or browse our rules library to get started."

Hi @Eddy Witkamp 

There might be global rules active, but to see these, you need to be Confluence administrator.

If you are not, reach out to your Confluence administrator, if there are any.

[Eddy Witkamp]

I've reached out to my Admin, waiting for an answer. 

But since only some people are affected, I doubt this is the case

[Eddy Witkamp]

New info: apparently only SOME users are affected by this bug, others in the space are getting a draft when duplicated.

It's very annoying and I would like to know a fix..

Hi @Eddy Witkamp 

Try clearing your browser cache/history or disable any browser plugins.

Also you can try another browser or an incognito window.

[Eddy Witkamp]

It's happening on multiple PC's, so it's not a machine issue.

No browser plugins installed on Chrome.

Chrome Incognito mode does the same thing.

Microsoft Edge browser shows the same.

It's not a user issue @Marc -Devoteam-

@Eddy Witkamp In case it's not an automation rule, are you maybe duplicating a Live Doc, rather than a Page? Live Docs don't have a draft/publish paradigm.

[Eddy Witkamp]

No, it's pages.

Nothing changed in my space, this started happening all of a sudden.
