Read-Only Mode Compatibility

Read-Only Mode for Data Center customers helps admins perform routine maintenance, recover from unexpected problems, or prepare to migrate content to a new site. When a site is placed in read-only mode, users will be able to view pages and their history, but not create, edit, comment, copy or move content. Administration actions such as changing site configuration are not restricted.

Starting with  Power Scripts for Confluence 1.1.10 version the app is now compatible with the read-only mode. This means that while in read-only mode scripts that are set to run on a schedule or triggered from a page action are disabled. 

Once you've got your Data Center test instance set up, turn on read-only mode:

1. Go to General Configuration > Maintenance.

2. Select Edit and select Read-only mode.

3. (Optional) Update the text of the banner message - this will let anyone using your test environment know that read-only mode is enabled.

4. Select Save to apply your changes.
   
   

   Open

   

    

5. Once Read-only mode is enabled you see the following note by clicking 

   General Configuration > Read-only info.
   
   

   Open

   

That's it.
