There are some pages I don't want the users to export, but some are necessary to allow export. Is there a way to customize it any time any where?
Hi @Sonya Chen - there may be several solutions. You can give permissions to several groups for export - also see Space Permissions
As you can switch pdf export only off globally - see here this might be the easiest way
May be you just get the pages you wanna get exported in a space where it is allowed and the other ones where it is permitted.
Thanks for helping, but Space Permissions only limits the create/edit/delete of a page, not the export it. And it's not only the PDF export but more importantly the word export that we need to ban.
And we can't decide what page can/cannot be exported when creating a space, and we don't group our business into spaces by the permit of export. So I need more configuration than just the space permissions.
There's no way to do this really, the users can always press ctrl-s in the browser and export what they want. Confluence doesn't have any functions to restrict the exports built into it, there's little point in having them
You can get some control though. If you use the Scroll exporter app, you get more control over the export format, including macros that allow you to wrap text in "if someone does a word and/or pdf export, do not include this in it" commands. If you use those, and then disable Confluence's native exporters, you can at least stop the direct exports of part/all of a page. But you can't stop simple ctrl-s or print-to-pdf in the browser.
Oh I see the problem - sorry for not being able to help you more - but as @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- there is always a way for someone who wants to get it exported or have the information.... even if they just screenshot it or take out their mobile....
