[CONFSERVER-38871] Anonymous users not able to attach files to newly created pages
I am still seeing this issue in Confluence Server 7.0.1
This doesn't seem to have been resolved.
Thank you for your interest in this ticket. The Confluence Server and Data Center team released a major upgrade to the editor in 6.14. Due to the age of this ticket and/or lack of updates, we suspect that this issue is no longer relevant or was resolved as a result of the upgrade and are now closing this ticket.
If this issue is still a problem in your Confluence instance in version 6.15 or later, please tag me in your comment and we can reopen this ticket for review.
You can read more about the editor upgrade in the 6.14 Release Notes.
Thanks
Makisa Appleton | Senior Product Manager, Confluence Server and Data Center
Thank you for the update sarangc.
I've tested this issue on Confluence 7.3.1, and can confirm that the issue does persist.
The workaround in the issue description works as well, and for now, if anonymous users would like to add attachments on newly created page, they will first have to save the page.
I've re-opened this bug ticket.
Cheers,
Sattesh
