Can I create text in edit view that does not display in read view?

[Susan Parker]

Is there a way to put text into the edit view of a regular confluence page that does not display when the page is viewed/displayed?

I'd suggest this workaround: Use the {collapse} macro. The message "Click to expand..." can be customized, so replace it with an empty string or a space.
