      Atlassian Update, October 29 2018

      Hi all,

      Thanks for providing your thoughts and votes on this suggestion.

      As you’re probably aware, we made significant improvements to our editing files experience in our 6.11 release, allowing users to both edit any file type, and do so without having to manually download the file and reupload their changes. For more information on these improvements, please see our documentation.

      However, as part of these immediate changes we decided not to implement concurrent editing. To prevent this issue arising there is an add-on available (Cenote Lockpoint) which offers the ability to lock documents while they’re being edited.

      We do though understand the value concurrent editing would bring, and will reconsider this suggestion at a later date.

      If there is an Office file embedded on a page and two users start editing it in Office at the same time. The first one to save his/her changes will have the changes uploaded to Confluence. The other one that saves after the first is not able to save at all. Office seems to be puzzled when the file has changed form. Office does not show the changes and does not allow saving. It does not even say that the save has not been made. It just does not save.

      This is bad if a lot of changes have been made and it does not inform of the problem. Someone might just save and close the window and realize later that nothing was actually saved and nothing can be found in the version history.
