Restrict access to a single Share site

matt_bennett — Thu, 25 Nov 2010 15:30:09 GMT

Hello,I'm interested in using Alfresco Share to create a collaboration site. As the admin, I want to be able to create my collaboration site and then make it available to the users, who should fit into the usual categories (consumer, contributor, collaborator). I might even want a per-site admin use

Yes. Just comment out the things you do not require out of header.get.html.ftl.

Sorry to resurrect and old topic, but is the only mention I could find on this issue.

I not only want to restrict the user to a single site, I would like them directed to the outside after login. is the answer mentioned above still applicable? If so, after commenting out the header information, how do I restrict their login so they only had access to one site?

Can this be accomplished by changing the settings in Web – client – config.XML?

Thanks!

I was able to paste together a solution from other topics. I disabled the app links in the header using the instructions from this thread:

and I was able to bypass the user dashboard using the instructions from this thread:

It's not the most elegant solution, and it still allows someone to access the "create site" if they type in the URL directly. But I'm not as concerned about security as I am about just directing the user to the correct page. Is there a better way to do this?

Thanks!
