how do I stay in place on a page when I go into editor mode?

Ryan Sommer

Hello!

When I go into editing mode (by pressing 'e') confluence always jumps to the top of the page and I need to scroll down and find the actual spot.

This is especially annoying on large pages and when I only want to correct a typo.

Atlassian says that this behavior has been changed with version 5.9 and I use version 6.6.2 so it should have been corrected.

Can anyone help me here please? Is there a setting or is it a bug?

Thank you!

After writing atlassian support I was told that the problem relates to firefox and chrome browsers.

I tried editing with safari browser and it works as it should. I will use safari now when I want to do some editing. Until the bug is fixed for the other browsers that is.

@Ryan Sommer,

this feature works non-consistently for me as well. In 6.14 it doesn’t work for me, while on 6.13 it works on some pages.

Third-party apps could also prevent this feature from working correctly.

You could try a third-party app to help with long pages: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/33286/inplace-editor-for-confluence?hosting=server&tab=overview.

Thank you for answering and the tip for the plugin. Am I seeing it right that it costs money after 30 days?

@Ryan Sommer,

yes, that app is a paid add-on. You can do a 30 day trial to test it before purchase.

With Safari it does not work for me. Add your vote here for Confluence Server https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFSERVER-57520 and here for Confluence Cloud https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-68857 to get the bug being fixed.

@atlassian This worked well for a long time, I believe starting in 2022 or earlier in Chrome. It is now broken, following one of your recent releases. What did you do, and can you fix it?
