I'm using Confluence server 6.4.
Is there any way to disable Autowatch in Confluence globally?
Or at least limit to certain space?
Thanks.
Hi,
Thank you for your reply.
I meant, when I create a new user,
can that option be disable by default?

Hi,
ok!, for that you have this workaround of Atlassian:
The config lives in an XML file: <confluence install>/confluence/WEB-INF/lib/confluence-x.x.x.jar/preferences-default.xml.
You need to change the boolean value to false, thus:
<preference type="Boolean"> <name>confluence.prefs.watch.my.own.content</name> <value>false</value> </preference>
Then place it as <confluence install>/confluence/WEB-INF/classes/preferences-default.xml and restart Confluence.

Cheers!

Nice information.
Will try this if our company decides to disable autowatch.
Thanks!

I am using Confluence cloud.
The main reason why we use a tool like Confluence is to AVOID constant email exchanges and yet Conlfluence by default sets the Autowatch "on"... and apparently it is not possible to GLOBALLY disable it... None... Nada... Zero! We DO NOT WANT EMAILS BY DEFAULT!
Why? But why would you think that I am interested to receive an email every time I edit a page...?
It is by far the most annoying feature... Silly and useless... A massive waste of time to (on top of that) manage the email filter to trash the garbage emails received.

Hi Community! We're thrilled to share that Team Calendars for Confluence is now a built-in feature for Confluence Data Center releases 7.11 and beyond. A long time favorite, Team Cale...
