Searching for pages created by an Inactive User is not possible

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      Issue Summary

      Currently, if a user has created content in a Confluence instance, and afterward is deactivated, you are not able to filter the search results based on this user's ownership.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Impersonate a user from a Cloud instance
      2. Create a new page and Publish it
      3. Now, deactivate the impersonated user
      4. Access your search page on Confluence
      5. On the left-corner, try searching the deactivated user for his/her content

      Expected Results

      You should be able to search for this inactive user's contribution

      Actual Results

      You're not.

      Workaround

      None at the moment

            I don't think this is a GDPR thing if you paid them to do work in writing updated Confluence, that is likely beyond the scope - worst case you renamed the user.

            But I just want to ensure every page has an active owner, where a better search would be good.

            I like how the Reporter of CONFCLOUD-65542 is “Inactive” 😊

            Regarding GDPR, the person’s name still displays on the page even though it is not available in the search. I would think the GDPR case would be if a user displayed and was available after being deleted.
