how to grant individuals write access for restricted pages

Christoph Delbrück

Hi,

we are having problems giving write access for individual users to individual pages. Our structure is like this:

Space

|--- A

|     |--- A.1

|     |--- A.2

|     |--- A.3

|--- B

|--- C

 

• Pages A, B and C should not be restricted (this works)
• A.1 should be visible with write access for "User Manager" and "User1"
• A.2 should be visible with write access for "User Manager" and "User2"
• A.3 should be visible with write access for "User Manager" and "User3" 

What I did:

For the Pages A.1, A.2 and A.3 set Restrictions to

• Viewing and editing restricted
• Add "User Manager" and "UserX" (with X beeing 1, 2 or 3) with permission "Can view and edit"

The result is:

• "User Manager" is allowed to view and edit (but this user created the space, so he is space admin as well)
• UserX can view the page but is not allowed to change anythin.

 

Am I doing something wrong here?

 

Best regards,

Christoph

Christoph,

Everything seems okay. I've also set this up on my own instance and each user was able to login and edit the pages I gave them access to edit.

I assume they have access via the individual space permissions as well? 

When you say the users aren't allowed to edit anything, I assume it means they don't have a pencil icon, or do they get some error message?

Could you try Rebuilding the Ancestor Table and let me know what version of Confluence you're using?

Regards,

Shannon
