Hi Giuliano C., thanks for your attention!

I don't mind changing to watch this basic issue from here to CONFCLOUD-38722, but really hope to get the correct solution, creating separate permissions for editing and creating pages, as soon as possible since I was aware of this problem in 2018.

It’s unbelievable that this issue get nothing done since it was reported 16 years ago.

Hello, everyone!

For all users watching this request, thinking about a holistic solution for its implementation, aligned with the provided feedback, we have decided to close this one as a duplicate from the following suggestion, to create separate permissions for editing and creating pages (instead of updating the permission's name):

• Not possible to restrict users to edit page contents without grant add permission in all the space.

We have included all the Cloud cases from here to the suggestion.

Feel free to also add yourself as a watcher to receive updates on our progress and of course, share your thoughts through comments to help us to improve!

Wish you the best,
Giuliano C.

We faced also this problem in my company. To avoid chaos in the organization of our confluence wiki, we want to allow only some users to create pages, but we want everyone to be able to collaborate and edit pages. But with current confluence infrastructure we can only grant both permissions or none. It would be great to separate the "page edition" from the "page creation".

I would also like to have option 1). This is also related to this other issue: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONFCLOUD-38722 

Vote for solution 1) This permission should be split up so that page creation and page editing are seperate.

Still nothing have done with this issue?

From 2005: 'The problem we have at the moment is that we are running out of horizontal space and therefore the button is called "create".'

What's the problem at this (2017) moment?

This is such a silly issue to be open for 11 years! It's the best mechanism we have for stopping chaos ensuing with 250 users - we want to tap into their knowledge regarding editing existing pages but we don't want them creating pages all over the place. So frustrating that this is still not possible.

Hi Guys,

This permission structure is causing some issues for our company as we have hundreds of contributors per space (of which we have over 100 spaces) however none of which we want to have add page access, we only desire them to be able to edit current page content. The absence of this permission separation causes hundreds of hours of unnecessary work throughout the company. This is an unnecessary financial bleed.

I also still miss this

When get this changed
