Publish/Update button is gone

Question

Apparently I'm working within the most recent version of Confluence today. I duplicated a page and dropped it under a new parent page. There is no Publish or Update button showing.

I tried chatting with the AI agent but it just keeps saying that the button should be in the top right corner. This surely has to be a bug, right?

Until it's fixed I'm stuck unless anyone has an idea of how to resolve this.

Hi @Madelyn Montoya ,

please check, if you are in a live document Create and collaborate in real time with live docs | Confluence Cloud | Atlassian Support

"This live-edit feature will allow you to create frictionless docs that can be updated and collaborated on instantly in real time, without the need to publish."

@Madelyn Montoya Welcome to the Atlassian community

If refreshing does not work, it is probably just a cache issue.  I would suggest clearing it or using a different browser to see if the issue is resolved.

Hi @Madelyn Montoya

I would use a fresh tab or browser and try it again, see if that makes it show up. I just published a test page on one of test cloud instance.

Hope this helps.
