Plugin for custom permission

Hi Everyone,

I would like to know if there exists, a plugin that helps me create a hierarchy in pages as in the following example:
page father
-child page 1
- child page 2
-child page 3
etc...
I have a group that has view and edit permissions, the other users will be able to see the father page, and create child pages, but they will only have visibility of the child pages they have created, the rest should not be accessible.
I don't know if it is possible to implement such a scheme, the native conflunce functions don't allow it.

Thanks in advance

Hmm. Confluence requires you to have unique page names in the space.  What if user "A" create a page "Foobar", and now "B" wants to create his page "Foobar". Not allowed, but they won't know why as they can't see the other page...

To me it sounds that the use case should solved in some alternative way.

Hi @Davide Cascapera 

I don't know of a solution that allows for customising the permissions that way.

Without knowing more detail about what you are trying to achieve, using spaces instead of parent pages might be the way to go. 

Cheers,
Jens

I don't think this is the solution, because the problem remains the same: if you have a parent page with several child pages, using the confluence permissions, you have 3 choices
-deny visibility and editing to all or only some users
-give visibility to all or only some users
-make the page open for all

I need the parent page to be visible to everyone (nothing strange here), but I need users to be able to create child pages, but they should only be able to see the child pages they created and not all of them

Best Regards 

Davide

Hi @Davide Cascapera 

I don’t know of a way to enforce those types of permissions. Each user could of course restrict page permissions so those pages are only visible to them, but there is no out of the box way to do that automatically. 

Sorry I don’t have a better answer for you.
