Is there a way to restrict creating child pages?

Hi All,

What I'd like to do is restrict creating child pages on some sections of a space. So far I've found that you can restrict page creation on a space level, but I would like users to have the ability to add pages in certain sections. 

The picture may help describe it better.

Not just page creation, no.  If someone has permission to create/edit in a space, then they can create a page anywhere in the tree. 

If you use restrictions to control who can edit a page, I think that stops people creating beneath a restricted page, but I have not tested that recently, so I'm not sure.  Obviously, it also stops them editing the current page, which might not be what you want.

I see. I had tried to restrict editing but for whatever reason you're still able to create child pages on a restricted page. Very frustrating. 

Thank you anyways!
