I'm trying to figure out how to unpublish a page from our external knowledge base?

Susan Merola

Hello. We use Scroll Viewport to publish Confluence pages to our external customer-facing knowledge base and I've found a few pages that are very out of date. 

I'd like to unpublish them or hide them while collect the details I need to update them, but I'm not sure how to go about doing that.

If you could please point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it. 

Thanks!

Hi @Susan Merola 

Simply add the following label to the pages that you want to hide from the viewport site:

scroll-help-center-exclude-page

The page will be accessible but only for those who know the exact URL (it will not appear in the tree).

https://help.k15t.com/scroll-viewport/exclude-pages-from-navigation-and-search

 

If you want to make sure that users who might have bookmarked the link can't access the page, you can customize the URL segment while working on the page.

Obviously, you can always move the page outside of the main tree (above the root page) - this will remove the page completely from the Viewport site. After you're done with the edits, you just move the page back.

 

Advanced solution:

You can combine Viewport with workflow apps using a two-space method. It's a fairly complex but extremely efficient setup - that takes a lot of time to explain But you'll be fully in control over what gets published/deleted/updated and when with no dependencies.
