In Confluency, can we remove/edit the "last person edited or the person created"

[Sam]

Hi,

In Confluence cloud controlled by Atlassian, I want to edit the owner of the page and edit/remove the last person edited the page. Is there any way to do it? It is not a hosted version of confluence,it is cloud version. 

Thanks,

Sai Sampath.

Hello again, Sai. I hope you are having a good Friday.

I am afraid there is no way to change the bylines in Confluence Cloud at this time, although we do have this suggestion open: Ability to change the author of an existing page

It sounds like you already researched and found that customizations like How to hide content author name (created by) in a page are Restricted functions in Confluence Cloud.

In case it helps: If the user you would like to see as creator on the pages were to copy the pages, the copied pages would show the person who copied them as creator.

Regards,

Ann

The link provided above "To hide content author name in a Page", is the process same for cloud version as well. Because I cannot find the options shown in the page.

I don't like to bear bad news but there is no process for Cloud. Please see Restricted functions in Confluence Cloud

As Confluence uses a custom theme, it is not possible to customize the layout.

It is also not possible to style Confluence with CSS.

Thanks Ann, I see many limitations in cloud versions.

Yes, there are limitations and advantages. Here is an article that may interest you: Pros and Cons of Cloud vs. Server
