Hi, Currently indeed the change-note on a page-edit is an optional field.
It is not hard to make it a required field; if you are ready to modify a JSP. Here is how: 1) Open /templates/default/editors/plain.jsp 2) Add a 'required' attribute to the CHANGENOTE input field <input class="form-control" type="text" name="changenote" id="changenote" size="80" maxlength="80" placeholder="<fmt:message key='editor.plain.changenote'/>" required value="${changenote}" /> 3) Add a 'formnovalidate' attribute to the CANCEL button of the editor. (otherwise you cannot cancel the form without giving a 'bogus' change-note :-) ) <input class="btn btn-danger pull-right" type="submit" name="cancel" accesskey="q" value="<fmt:message key='editor.plain.cancel.submit'/>" title="<fmt:message key='editor.plain.cancel.title'/>" formnovalidate /> Good luck ! Could you log a JIRA improvement request, so we can consider to make this a JSPWIKI property.
