    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Please allow the ability to set the Notify Watchers checkbox to default off or on in the Administration console. Some of our customers would prefer for it to be set to default off, to prevent email noise.

      Workaround:

      1. Navigate to Confluence Admin >> Custom HTML
      2. Insert the following At the End of the HEAD: 
        <script type="text/javascript">
AJS.toInit(function () {
  AJS.$('#notifyWatchers').attr('checked', false);
});
</script>

            Workaround for initial workaround:

            <script type="text/javascript">
AJS.toInit(function () {

    var unsetNotify = function () {
        $("#notifyWatchers").attr("checked", false);
    };

    var timer = setTimeout(unsetNotify, 1000);

    var status = AJS.$("#notifyWatchers").val();
    if (!status) clearTimeout(timer);
});
</script>
