This is not something Alfresco ever considered people might want to customize, so this is something rather hard to customize. The simplest / easiest option in this case might just be to override the users.get.html.ftl template via the web-extension folder and change the HTML markup of the create user form, i.e. apply the CSS class "hidden" to the field rows of the fields you want to suppress and set the value on the password inputs to your default password.

Is this correct?? This is to hide the password. Where shall I set the value say 'xyz' as default password?

<div class="field-row">
<span class="crud-label">${msg("bel.password")}: *</span>
</div>
<div class="field-row">
<input class="crud-input" id="${el}-create-password" type="hidden" maxlength="100" />
</div>
<div class="field-row">
<span class="crud-label">${msg("label.rifypassword")}: *</span>
</div>
<div class="field-row">
<input class="crud-input" id="${el}-create-verifypassword" type="hidden" maxlength="100" />
</div>

No - the inputs are missing the default value you talked about and I said the "hidden" class should be added to the field rows, not the input elements.

I have saved the file here:

Hi Ankita,

Axel is right but additionally you have to remove or comment the following lines in user.js file which is located at "\tomcat\webapps\share\components\console\users.js" as follows

fnClearEl("-create-password");
fnClearEl("-create-verifypassword");‍‍

Thanks,

share/src/main/amp/web/components/console/users.js

share/src/main/amp/config/alfresco/web-extension/components/console/usergroups/users.get.html.ftl

Please let me know whether the location is wrong, As I have been making all the mentioned changes in the above files.

Your folder structure to override "users.get.html.ftl" is little incorrect. In order to override "users.get.html.ftl" place it at

src\main\amp\config\alfresco\web-extension\site-webscripts\org\alfresco\components\console\usersgroups\

Note: You have also made usergroups instead of usersgroups
