Greetings all, 

Apologies if this is a ridiculously simple question, but I can't seem to figure this out. 

I have set up a parent page that I want everyone to see. On this page, I am using a /child macro (with 2 levels) so that everyone can see the restricted topics. 

However, I want all the child pages to be restricted to all but a selected 12 stakeholders. There will be quite a few child pages, so I don't want to manually enter the 12 names for each of these restricted pages. 

The only solution I can come up with is to create an intermediary page where I will set the restrictions and then place all the restricted (inherited) pages on the next level. Is there a better way to do this... aka do I really need to create that intermediary "Child page" for setting restrictions?

- Parent page (open)
   - Child page for the purpose of setting the restrictions (restricted to 12 stakeholders)
      - Restricted pages 1, 2, 3, 4, etc... (inherited restriction)


BTW, User groups and templates are not available options for me.  

Thank you

Without looking at a Marketplace app, that is the best approach.

Hey @Shawn Connelly - an interesting topic. Whilst I can't help you straight away with a solution I would like to introduce you to an app that we're developing at the moment which could suit your content management needs and will handle bulk permissions management of pages.

@Tom_Carrott_Adaptavist I thought that might be an upcoming solution :)

Hi @Shawn Connelly 

I'd also create a dedicated user group of those 12 users to make restricting easier.
