Summary
The CSS class 'unresolved' is no more present for unresolved links in the Confluence .
In version for example Confluence 5.4 or 5.6 the class is available
Steps to Reproduce
- Login to Confluence as Admin
- Add a user eg: test
- Create a Page and add restrictions to the page for viewing only to Admin user.
- Copy the link of this page on Clipboard
- Login as test user
- Create a new Page and paste the link which was copied earlier.
- Save the Page
- Right click on the link and Click on Inspect element .
Expected Results
The link is set as unresolved and contain a CSS class in the source as below
<a class="unresolved" href="#">test Home</a>
Actual Results
The link has no class as 'unresolved'
<a href="http://localhost:8090/display/TEST/test+Home" rel="nofollow">http://localhost:8090/display/TEST/test+Home</a>
Notes
Users need this class for customization purpose and the class is now not available .
EG: make the link colour as RED
[CONFSERVER-39035] CSS class 'unresolved' not available for unresolved links
The current behavior in 5.8 , when the user clicks such a link, he ends up on an ugly page which says "Page not found". (not even "permission denied").
In 5.4, the link was set to "#", so nothing happened when the user clicked a link of class unresolved. Together with the visual representation (red), the user did understand that and why this link was not available to use.
Instead of the currently user-unfriendly behavior, I request to get the previous behavior back (class=unresolved href=#).
Note that it was communicated anywhere that there was a change of behavior, so I believe this has happened outside of change control. ("bug").
