Version Comments and Minor Change buttons are overlooked by most users on the default page layout

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      Most users see and/or use the 'save /cancel' button that is near the 'captcha' location at the top and never scroll down far enough to see the 'version commnet' at the bottom.

      • Please modify the 'page edit' decorator so that either: The version comment dialog and minor change buttons are at the top, near the save / cancel, OR remove the top save/cancel buttons. People don't notice the version comment / minor change buttons with the current layout, even people who have used them in the past!
      • In some spaces of our installation, we have a javascript that jumps to the blank version comment if save is clicked. The user must either provide a version comment or click minor revision (or both) to submit a page change. This increases compliance of meaningful comments from about 1% to over 60%, and reduces 'email notifications' from correcting minor typos from near 99% to less than 20%.

      Thanks.
