      Issue Summary

      When the "Number Entries" option is enabled in a Confluence database table layout, the first column becomes invisible to users with view-only permissions. 

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Create a basic database structure in Confluence.
      2. Enable "Number Entries" in the Table Layout.
      3. Assign only "View All" permission to a test user under Space Permissions.
      4. Log in with the test user and access the database.

      Expected Results

      • The test user should be able to view all columns of the database, including the first column, regardless of the "Number Entries" setting.

      Actual Results

      • The first column is not visible to the test user with view-only permissions.
      • If the "Hide Column" option is used, it hides the second column instead of the first.

      Workaround

      There are 2 ways to get around the issue:

      • Assign Add Pages, Whiteboards, Databases, and Smart Links permission to the test user and it'll fix the issue.
      • Disable Number Entries option.
