      The pagetree can take a substantial time to load and take up a large amount of screen real-estate. It should not automatically open when editing a page, even if it was open the last time a page was edited.

            I don't know about the rest of you, but I think the whole tree idea doesn't need to be fixed or stop-gapped, it needs to be able to be turned off.

            Workaround:

            Edit file:
            <confluence-install>/confluence/pages/includes/page-location-form.vm

            Line 39
            <input type="hidden" id="showLocation" value="$action.locationShowing">

            change to:

            Line 39 changed
            <input type="hidden" id="showLocation" value="false">

            The location panel will now only be open in three situations:

            • when you open it manually
            • when you click the 'Move' link on the Tools menu
            • when you had the location editor open, clicked Save and are brought back to the editor because there was a problem saving the page (like a validation or merge warning).

            (Dev note: I wrote a Selenium test to verify this has been fixed, and removed the persistence of the open setting.)

            Seems to be the first report of it actually.
