      CamelCase setting was used when users imported content from other wikis (e.g https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/13206/enable-camelcase-linking-for-confluence-4-0).

      We should consider bringing this setting back.

            Thank you for raising this issue. While I can see how this feature would be useful, we have no plans to implement it in the foreseeable future. In order to set expectations, we're closing this request now.

            Thanks again for your idea.

            Any update on the fix. We are currently migrating from 3.5 to 4.3 and we need an answer on this. Thanks in advance

            Is there any update on this issue. We really want to move to Confluence; however, we have 9 years of documentation in TWiki which uses camel case (i.e. WikiWords) for linking. We simply can't manually fix our thousands of links after a migration. This is a blocker from moving to Confluence.

            Confluence doesn't even have to support camel case linking, it would be fine if the migration tool linked documents together via WikiWords during the migration process and then maybe rewrote the link into Confluence link syntax.
