Purpose

Confluence users can place comments on image files in the Preview of the file but sometimes there might be a need to remove this feature so that no comment is allowed in the Image Preview

Solution

There is a limitation for commenting on a file, which is hosting on a web and being added to Confluence using their URL. This limitation can be used to hide the comment in an Image Preview

  1. Go to the Attachment Page and copy the link to the image attachment

  2. Back to edit the page and add the image using the Insert files and images option and select Images from the web then paste the copied URL and click Insert
  3. This way, the attachment will not have the comment option in the Image Preview
