How can i disable export to word?

Derek Greene June 24, 2014

I don't want users to be able to export pages or spaces to word or PDF. I've disabled the PDF plugin, but can't seem to find a way to disable export to word. Any ideas?

Hi Derek,

Try this :

  • Open up confluence admin

  • Go to Custom HTML option & edit.
  • Paste the following code into the HEADER section
<style type="text/css">
#action-export-word-link{ display: none}
</style>

What it does is that it over-rides the default CSS and make it disappear!

I tried this and this works.

Hello Derek, it is not very visible, from the Confluence Admin > Manage Add-Ons > Choose 'System'in the drop down. Than look for the Page Operations Add-On, expand the item and you will find the Export as Word(wordexport) component, which can be disabled.

Thank you - however there is not an option to disable that component. How do I do that?
