page access in confluence for subpages

Question

Hi,

I'm also struggling with an issue but not sure if I'm right here :)

I have a page (1) with many sub-pages (2,3..)
With (1) I have restricted access only for several user but for (3) I like to give access not only to see the page but also to edit the page - but the user should not have access to work on (1) or (2).

I hope it was clear what I like to have and yo ucan help me in this topic.

Additionally the user are from BCMW. That means they can already see the pages but cannot edit them.

thanks in advance!

Well, pages are visible be default, it's not "can see page because I can see parent".

It's the restrictions that cascade down.  If you restrict a page, then all its children inherit that restriction.  You can add more restrictions in the child pages if you want.

thanks for quick feedback.

BCMW is some kind of doughter company - guess it is not relevant.

So if someone can see parent page all child and sub-child pages can be seen?
Is there any way to block some childpages?
