Release Notes for Attachment Checker for Confluence 1.4.0

In this release, administrators can enable automatic deletion of infected files.

The benefits when the option is enabled are

  • The infected files are removed immediately
  • The users save the time of removing the infected files manually

Delete Virus Files

The Delete Virus File option allows administrators to automatically remove any infected files uploaded by the users.

  • A placeholder would be uploaded in place of the infected file. This is to ensure the content in the Confluence page is not affected by the deleted file
  • An auto-generated comment would be posted to inform users that the infected file has removed and a placeholder is uploaded to replace the infected file


The option can be enabled in the plugin configuration. The default value is disabled.
