Restrict who can view comments

Question

I'm a Confluence Cloud user. Wondering if it's possible to restrict view privileges on comments. In other words, can I put comments on pages that are essentially my personal notes for that page and restrict other visitors from seeing them?

Thanks,

Bob

I should clarify that the Project Documentation Macros by smartics contains a macro that hides text in a page from those with only view rights, and has nothing to do with the comments.

If this functionality is workable, I would contact smartics about the feasibility of a cloud version.

It would also seem that someone smarter than me should be able to come up with a user macro that does the same thing; a jscript that evaluates a user's permissions and displays the enclosed text or not.

Additional question Milo. What is the process to "hide" a comment? I don't see how to do it in the UI.

Thanks again,

Bob

Thanks for the response Milo. Unfortunately, that won't work for my use case. I need to restrict comments view to the creating user only. Any idea if the macro that works for server will be made available for cloud?
