Gardening Administration

The following are information about global configurations that can be used by a Confluence administrator.

Exclude spaces from the Page Gardener

What is a blocklisted space?

• Blocklisted spaces will not have the page condition displayed (no page gardener or watering can).

• None of the pages within the space will ever be marked as outdated.

• The page gardeners for all pages in the space will not be notified about pages in the space.

1. Navigate to Administration ⚙️ > General Configuration > Gardening Administration.

2. Click on the Blocklisted Spaces tab.

3. Select the spaces you wish to exclude by clicking on the checkbox next to the desired spaces.

4. Click on the Save button.

View pages gardened by a particular user

What pages do you see?

Searching for pages respects page permissions and restrictions. Only users in the "confluence-administrators" group can see all pages of a particular user.

1. Navigate to Administration ⚙️ > General Configuration > Gardening Administration.

2. Click on the Overview tab.

3. Enter the name of the user whose gardened pages you want to see.

4. Click Find pages.

1. Navigate to Administration ⚙️ > General Configuration > Scheduled Jobs.

2. Find the Job Page Gardener Companion for Confluence mail notifications.

3. Click on Edit.

4. Enter a new valid cron expression for how often you want reminder emails to be sent.
