How can I hide the "pulsing" icon in the footer of the old editor?

While editing a page in the older editor there is a "pulsing" icon in the lower-left corner of the page beckoning me to convert the page. This icon is very distracting as I edit.

So, short of converting the page (which I am not ready to do) or using Chrome's F12 "Developer Tools" to remove the div that contains this icon (which is something that would need to done each time I edit a page), how can I hide this icon?

Thank you for your ideas.

If you are an admin try modifying the page layout (it can be done for a single space or for the whole system). Enclosed is a screenshot how to do it for a space.

Just add some Javascript at the very end like this:

<script type="text/javascript">

$('<<here your selector>>').hide();

</script>

It should word, as confluence implements jQuery. For more information search for jQuery.

Florian -

 

Thank you for taking the time to respond to my question.

 

I should have mentioned in my original post that I am using Confluence Cloud. As a result, it may be the reason why I don't see a "Layout" sub option under the "Look and Feel" tab, despite being an administrator. The following page seems to suggest changing the layout is not allowed in Confluence Cloud: https://confluence.atlassian.com/confcloud/restricted-functions-in-confluence-cloud-734070955.html

 

I have included a screenshot of what I see in the event I am looking in the wrong place.

 

Thank you.

Steve

Hi Stephen,

that's sad. I did not know that the cloud version has this restrictions.

Kind regards
