How to turn off page observation when contributing to a ConfiForm in Confluence?

Hi all

I've just noticed that there is an automatic set to 'watching the page', each time I contribute to a form (ConfiForm v.2.24.7 for Confluence)

Which means that each time I use this form, I have to manually turn off the page watching ...

Does anyone already have the same problem? Or much better do you know how to solve this problem ?!

Thank you for your help :)

Laurence

Hi

If your form has a file/attachment field then submitting the form the file gets attached as an attachment. And the default behaviour of Confluence is to add this user as a page watcher

Consider adding an IFTTT rule to remove the page watcher on form submit

https://wiki.vertuna.com/display/CONFIFORMS/Configuring+ConfiForms+IFTTT+actions+and+rules#ConfiguringConfiFormsIFTTTactionsandrules-RemovePageWatcher

Current user is accessible via [entry._user] and current page is accessible via [entry._page]

(to be used as parameters for this macro)
