Second, "ghostly" copy of page appears in TOC; it cannot be deleted

LMP

I had a page called "Newsletter Engagement and Reach"; then, one day, a second copy of it, with the DRAFT label, has appeared in the TOC.

Clicking this "ghostly" duplicate page takes me to editing the original page. It is impossible to delete this page (the option is greyed out and the text underneath states "Your actions on this content are limited by the owner or admin."—I'm the admin).

What's up with this?

Will it allow you to rename it? If so, rename and save the ghost copy, then go back and see if it lets you delete it.

LMP

Nope. Rename, move, and delete are all greyed out. By now, I'm convinced this is a bug.

I misread TOC to mean the content tree on the left side.

Here is the DOC on how TOC works and Drafts, hope this sheds some light, and maybe helps.

@Shawn Doyle - ReleaseTEAMThank you for the detailed response! I was actually talking about the left-side content tree (my bad for using incorrect terminology).

I'm attaching a screenshot; I hope this helps.

Hi @LMP and welcome to the community.

It does happen once in a blue moon... the discarded draft hangs in there but eventually disappears. It's probably a cache issue (yesterday, I couldn't add a new page into a Database for about an hour although it did appear in the search itself).

There's also the 'delete the unpublished draft' option in the three-dot menu in the edit mode.

@LMP I felt like I just saw this question recently. See this post to see if it helps: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Confluence-questions/Draft-pages-are-getting-copied-and-or-created-out-of-nowhere/qaq-p/2103312

Thanks for the welcome!

Unfortunately, when I click the duplicate draft, it just takes me to the normal page. There's no option to delete an unpublished draft. I believe it's a bug...
