What is copied from

...

a source space page when publishing?

Publishing and syncing a page maintains the page hierarchy where possible, although the order of the content is not necessarily maintained in some circumstances.

When the hierarchy is not maintained in a publish action, the page is published to the root of the destination space.

Each published page will includeincludes

  • the content title

  • the content body

  • attachments

  • content properties*

  • content labels

When publishing the page

  • links

The Comala Publishing status is copied but is not visible on the content for users with view-only permission.

When publishing, /wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/1286602822 to local pages in the source space are replaced with the links for the

...

page in the target space.

When publishing a previously published updated page

...

Exceptions to this are:

  • when the URL used is a short URL

  • the link is to a heading or anchor in a different page in the source space

When publishing an updated page that has already been published, Comala Publishing deletes it and copies the updated page as a new page in the target space

and the Confluence page version in the target space is v1.

Page hierarchy

The publish action maintains the page hierarchy where possible although in some circumstances, the order of the content is not necessarily maintained.

When the hierarchy is not maintained in a publish action, the page is published to the root of the destination space.

  • the hierarchy is maintained as long as the parent page exists in the destination space

  • if the hierarchy cannot be maintained the page is copied into the root of the destination space and a warning message is shown to the user

...

If a previous publish action resulted in the page being published to the root of the destination space, any subsequent publishing of the source space page copies the page but not changes in the page tree parent.

Publishing user permissions

To configure publishing a user needs to have space administrator permission in the source space and target space.

When publishing space pages

  • a space administrator requires view and edit permission for all the pages in the source space and target space

  • a user publishing an individual page needs view and edit permission for the page in the source space and target space

A user also needs to have the following permissions in the target space to publish a draft page:

  • View All

  • Add and Delete Pages

  • Add and Delete Attachments

For successful publishing, the published page has no page-level restrictions limiting access in the target space.
