My need was to hide some dashlet from view to all user, when they customize share dasboard. I obtain this result modifying customise-dashlets.get.js in ${tomcat_home}/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/site-webscripts/org/alfresco/components/dashboardI've added this function:function isAvalaible

Alessandro,

I don't think anything depends on those dashlets. Why didn't you just remove them? Or at least, just rename the declaration xml file to something like "alfresco-network.get.desc.xml.DISABLED"?

That way they wouldn't show up either.

Except if you really want them be shown somewhere on some sites where you have set them, but not to be added to others?

Sorry to be a thread necromancer here, just wanted to point out this code is still useful and working in community 4.0.d. I made one change to your code, that being -

function isAvalaibleDashlet(dashletName){
        /*this array contains the script name of dashlet we want to see*/
   var enabledDashlet=["alfresco-network","cmisfeed","my-documents","my-profile","webview"];
        /*————————————————————————————————————————————*/

   // My change - Allow admins to add any dashlet
   if (user.isAdmin) return true;


   for(var j = 0; j < enabledDashlet.length; j++){
      if(enabledDashlet[j] == dashletName){
         return true;
      }
   }
   return false;
}‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

The only difference (and the code works with or without my change btw) is that this shows all dashlets to admins, but the restricted list to others.

Very smart and elegant solution

well, there are more elegant ways to check if an array contains a specific value, e.g.:

!!~enabledDashlet.indexOf(dashletName)‍

I agree that it's shorter, but I think Douglas Crockford would disapprove
