The default Metadataset value will not be added to a new page

 

Problem

Since Confluence version 6.7.0 the Metadataset can no longer be added when creating a new page.

But it works for all Confluence versions lower than 6.7.0.

 

Solution

When creating the new Confluence page, you need the Collaborative Editing Mode.

So we check the Collaborative Editing status:

  1. Navigate to the general configuration
  2. Next navigate via the Administration context to Collaborative Editing
  3. And now we can change the mode

The problem is solved for the modes "On" and "Limited".

Work around

You can also solve the problem as follows:

  1. Create a new page and save it
  2. Edit the page and add the Metadataset
