Problem: Saving of inline comments not possible!
Asked by jduerscheid:

I updated the our Confluence 2 weeks ago to the Version 6.14.1

After the update I have tested the comment function. Both version (inline and under the article) works fine. Since Yesterday I got from an user the information, that it is no longer possible to create new inline comments.

Comments under the article and a reply to an existing inline comment is still possible.

* [Exception When Creating or Deleting Page](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/exception-when-creating-or-deleting-page-683181903.html)

After i did this, the error was solved.

body: We have the same problem: unable to save inline comments after we upgrade to 6.15.4. We were able to add comments, but when we click "Save," the page redirected to the home page. This is affecting our productivity now that we cannot save inline comments!

body: Hi Johannes,

I understand you are unable to add inline comments on your instance. Some of the more common causes of this can be found on [Inline Comment Popup Does Not Show For Certain Users](https://confluence.atlassian.com/confkb/inline-comment-popup-does-not-show-for-certain-users-733940420.html). I recommend reading through this and walking through the solutions it suggests.

If you still cannot add inline comments, the following information will help us understand the situation a bit better:

* Does this happen to more than one user?
* Does the happen on more than one page?
* Is the **Confluence Inline Comments** add-on enabled?
* Is collaborative editing set to **On** (NOT **Limited** )? (![Cog](https://community.atlassian.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/46602i92147D6E1C9459DC/image-dimensions/14x14?v=v2 "Cog") \> **General Configuration** \> **Collaborative Editing**)

body: Hi Zak,

the Popup apears if I want to add an new inline comment. I can write the new comment, but when I want to save it there is an error, that saving the comment is not possible.

The problem have different users, and exist on different pages.

The Confluence Inline Comments add-on is enabled.

The collaborative editing set is Off. (Due to an problem that inline comments are not show in Firefox)

body: Is Confluence Cloud being developed by the community? The reason I ask is that yes, I have the same problem and it's just one of several problems that are driving me nuts.

My productivity has gone out the window and I'm thinking - write it all in Word first and upload.

This just does not feel like a mature stable product, and I don't see that I should be spending my time helping Atlassian develop it.

Back to comments - its happening on odd pages not all. I can only assume that with the screwed up templates there is some kind of missing link?


author: Huib Hezemans
body: Same here. Worked fine before but now in different spaces/documents/users: 'We're having trouble adding your comment. Try highlighting more or less text.'

Pls. get it fixed asap
