1. Confluence Docs 3.0 : Global Groups Overview This page last changed on Dec 18, 2007 by smaddox. There are two special default groups in Confluence: confluence-administrators: This is a group of 'super-users' who can access the 'Administration Console' and perform site-wide administration. Members of this group can also see all spaces in the Confluence instance. Any user who is a member of this group has site-wide administration powers, regardless of any other setting. The settings on the Global Permissions screen do not affect the powers allowed to members of this group.
   | There is an outstanding request to remove the 'confluence-administrators' group from a future version of Confluence (see CONF-4616).
confluence-users: This is the default group for all new users. Permissions you assign to this group will be assigned to all newly signed-up users of Confluence. Other user groups : A Confluence administrator can also group users together into user groups for more convenient administration. Once created, groups become available at the space and page levels to allow for flexible access control. A user in one of these groups will automatically be granted all permissions granted to the group. Anonymous users : Confluence treats all users who do not log in when they access Confluence as being 'anonymous'. You can grant anonymous 'Use Confluence' permission via the Global Permissions screen. This will allow non-registered users to access pages and spaces in Confluence. A space administrator can then further control anonymous access per space via the space permissions. ##### RELATED TOPICS
