Confluence: Hiding comments and last modified for public space

I want to publish a Release Notes space and pages to the public and I don't want people to see activities and who last modified a page.

Is there a way to hide all that and only make the page viewable?

To remove the ‘created by’ and ‘last modified on’ that appears in the top left of the page,

In your space - Go to Space Tools > Look and Feel > Stylesheet

Click edit and then enter this code:

 

.page-metadata ul {

 visibility: hidden;

}

 

Then in your permissions section, just uncheck Comments in the options for your users. That prevents anyone from leaving or seeing comments, except for those who have that permission. With public pages it would be best to have a user group with those who are allowed to edit, then set it where all other users only have View access.

 

Hope that helps!

Thanks Erica. However I only see PDF stylesheet option under Look and Feel. I need to hide those items from the display of the web page.

the thing I'm trying to eliminate is

Oh, that means you're not a Confluence admin and/or the setting isn't enabled.

Have the Admin go to the Wheel Cog, then General Configuration > User & Security > Security Configuration

 

Then edit and check the Custom Stylesheets for Spaces

That will give you this in spaces:

Then you can enter that code in there and the screenshot you sent with the user data in it, won't be there anymore. : ) 

Hope that works out, let me know.
