    Description

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

      As a Confluence user, I need to be able to un-watch specific pages within a watched Space so I can better manage my notifications and relevant content.

      Problem Definition

      When watching a Whole Space (using the option to Watch This Space), if I uncheck the Watch all content in this space option in a page, Everything is un-watched except for the page that I am in at the moment. This Does Not Happen with Administrator Users. This affects normal users.

      Suggested Resolution

      Make the exact opposite behaviour the default one. When unchecking Watch all content in this space, keep all pages as Watching but allow me to uncheck the ones I need to.

      Why this is important

      In a space where you have multiple pages, dozens, hundreds of pages but only a few are spamming notifications or are simply not relevant we must be able to simply un-watch those pages if needed. Un-watching the whole space and then having to go after each page and re-watch them is time consuming and counter intuitive.

      Workaround

      1. Un-watch the Space
      2. Un-watch the page where you unchecked Watch all content in this space
      3. Re-watch all the other pages
