A Surf extension module can be configured with an evaluator based on group membership of the current user, and that way you can group all create-content items under one evaluator. I do not believe that the create-content elements themselves even support the evaluator element, since they are never dynamically processed like e.g. metadata templates and actions are.</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 30 Aug 2017 19:17:46 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-forum/enable-disable-share-create-content-menu-option/m-p/23781#M10371 afaust 2017-08-30T19:17:46Z
