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

      Resolved inline comments cannot be deleted. You have to reopen (unresolve) the comment and then delete. There should be a "Delete" link in the Resolved Comments window so you can delete without having to reopen first.

      To reproduce:

      • add an inline comment to a page
      • resolve the comment
      • view the resolved comment via the page more actions menu - there is no way to delete it but there should be
      • reopen the resolved comment
      • now you can delete it via the inline comment more actions menu

            I would also like to be able to delete resolved inline comments that I can't reopen because the corresponding text was deleted.

            Dominik, I had the same problem as you and Atlassian has entered CONF-45678 about it, including a workaround that worked for me.

            Is there any progress or a workaround for this (without deleting and recreating the page)?

            I would like to take some pages that went through our internal review process (and have comments), delete the comments, and make the page available to external parties.
