I created a confluence page and used a special char ( ` ) in the Title. It showed no error while publishing, but now is not opening. How do I delete the page ?

error while opening the page : HTTP ERROR 400

Hello!

You can try this workaround: 

1. Go to the "Recently updated" section and find the page in the list. Alternatively you can open your profile and check the "Activity" section. 

2. Click to "view change" for the selected page. Copy the page ID from the address bar in the browser

3. Open the link  <baseURL>/pages/editpage.action?pageId=<PAGEID_FROM_STEP_2>

4. Edit the page name and remove the special character. Save the page. 

After this you will be able to open the page without error. 

Hope this will help
