nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

Is there a way to set permissions for a user to edit existing pages but not change the title?

unknown

We use Confluence for our user guide and have a publishing workflow in place. I have an issue where people change the title of the page without removing the page first from our production user guide and then republishing the page. I end up with two versions of the page with different names. Sometimes I am not aware that this has happened and our users then find out-of-date pages.

I would like to be able to lock down the page titles so only Confluence Publishers can change the name.

hi @[deleted], for the best of my knowledge , it is not possible to lock page title. in confluence if someone has edit access to a page, he/she can edit entire page including page title.

why don't you limit page creation/detention access for those users?

Hi Rebecca,

Maybe the app InPlace Editor could solve your problem. You find it on the Marketplace.

I already have users restricted from deleting pages. Do you mean that if I also restrict the creation/adding of pages that they won't be able to change the page titles but will still be able to edit pages?

No. If someone can create/edit page content, then they can set/edit the page title as well.

But if they can't create a page can they still edit it but not change the title?
