Possible to limit user access to only one specific field within a page?

[Anna Theorin]

We have users accepting our requirements via our tool, looking at confluence, is it possible to limit user access so that a user type can only have write access to one specific field (Status macro and using handy macro)?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

No, Confluence can't do that, it's designed for full collaboration, not limiting people.  Either you can edit a page or you can't.

You can kludge it a bit.  Put the macro on a separate page that the user can edit, and then use include or excerpt-include on the main page which they can't edit.  But it does require them to know where to go to edit it.
