How / where can we have internal discussion about a page?

[Robert Lauriston]

We're evaluating building a customer-facing wiki with Confluence 4.0. I'm looking for some way to attach internal discussions to a page so that customers won't see them.

Visibility controls for comments a la Jira is the obvious way but CONF-5639 has only a few votes.

I guess I could create a child page and make it visible only to the Internal group.

Is there a macro / plugin for visibility-controlled inline comments?

Any more elegant suggestions?

Hallo Robert

Have you seen the Spartez Kwik Sticky Notes plugin?

I don't know if you can make the notes visible to a group, but you can make them "private" i.e. visible to a user. It's a neat plugin, and it may be worth asking the developers how much work it would be to support groups, if they don't already do so.

Cheers, Sarah
