Thank you for letting us know, Bahman.

I accepted your answer so now the question is marked as resolved.

If you want to share the exact configuration changes you made to correct the issue, feel free to do so. I'm sure it will help other users in the future, should they run into a similar error.

Shannon,

I have a security and encryption for confluence.

i use to say       {secure      in my text then i add user and group. and som secure text and save. look at the screen shot

[Shannon S]

Thank you for clarifying.

I'm not familiar with that macro, and I did some research and found it's included with an add-on you purchased called Security and Encryption for Confluence.

I'm not sure if you've reviewed the article I sent you yet, but have a look at that and see if it can help.

In the meantime, I'm tagging the add-on vendor on your question and moving it to the Marketplace collection in case they have any suggestions.

Regards,

Shannon

Bahman,

Can you let me know what you mean when you say you're creating secure text in your document? By document, I assume you mean you're creating a Confluence page. To create secure text, are you using an add-on?

You'll want to make sure that your Confluence URL in your browser is the same one as your base URL or there will be issues. Have a look at this for more information:
