Disable Repository Button

soborno — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 15:27:42 GMT

I was wandering if it is possible to disable the repository button for specific users or roles, like "Consumers".The main idea is to block access to it to a role, like "Consumer" for example.Thanks for the time.RegardsClaudio

I am assuming you are asking within the Share sites?

I'd try this, go into the Alfresco Repository Application, Alfresco Explorer, and remove the read EVERYONE permissions from Company Home, see what happens in Share. Remember though, that since all subspaces in Alfresco Explroer by default inherit, you may possibly need to whitelist the permissions for people to see certain folders in Share (though, I believe it's taken care of by group membership).

Then, in Share, you'd have to modify the javscript, or freemarker template to evaluate who the current user is to display the repository link or not.

Yes, what I was looking for is that you mentioned "you'd have to modify the javscript, or freemarker template to evaluate who the current user is to display the repository link or not", but I can´t figured out where is the place to do that, I also was looking for a way to show the other links "Sites, People" only to certain members. Sorry, but I´m not good enough to do that, so I ask for help again.
