How to edit the visibility of Confluence Comments?

[Carlos Moreno]

Hi,

Our company has created documentation for a customer in Confluence and we want them to have access to it but not to be able to see the comments we wrote during its creation (and the ones that still may be there). I have two questions regarding this:

1. Can we restrict the comments to roles?  
2. Can anyone access old comments on pages/page history?

Best,

Hello Carlos and welcome to Community!

The apps mentioned above by @Ollie Guan actually aren't available for Cloud.

I don't think there is any solution to restrict comments and/or page history access to only some users or groups in Cloud, see below links:

• Restrict view option for comments on a WIKI page
• Disabling the ability to view the "Page History" on a space
• Restrict access to page history to certain users (or groups)

Hope this helps,

- Manon

Hi  @Carlos Moreno,

As far as I know - there is no standard feature available in Confluence for this. However there are plugins that may allow you to achieve this.

e.g. this add-on is promising: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/plugins/net.customware.confluence.plugin.visibility

Hi @Ollie Guan, thanks a lot for your fast reply. 

When I try to access http://www.adaptavist.com/display/AtlassianConfluence/hide-from+macro it tells me "Sorry, it seems you were trying to access a page that doesn't exist" - can you please send me again that article?

Best,
