Create Shortcut

[lucille_arkenst]

Hello,

How do I create a shortcut to "document library" in a site and make it visible on everyone's dashboard?

Thanks!

[lucille_arkenst]

In other words I want to create a dashboard shortcut to the folders in the Document Library, so that the user doesn't have to drill down each time.

Thanks!

Nope!  Still no answer.

let me understand you want to add shorcut on My Alfresco Dashboard so you can click and open Document Library? right? :?:

[lucille_arkenst]

Yes, but I want to add the shortcut to all users' dashboard.

sure thing, fast tutorial:

\jsp\dashboards\dashlets\getting started.jsp

<h:panelGrid columns="2" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" border="0" id="tour-panel"><h:graphicImage value="/images/icons/gettingstarted_featuretour.gif" width="32" height="32" /><h:panelGroup id="tour-link"><a:actionLink href="http://www.alfresco.com/products/ecm/tour/" target="new" style="font-weight:bold" value="#{msg.gettingstarted_featuretour}" /><f:verbatim><br></f:verbatim><h:outputText value="#{msg.gettingstarted_featuretour_desc}" /></h:panelGroup></h:panelGrid>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

<a:actionLink href="/alfresco/navigate/browse/workspace/SpacesStore/0000-0000-0000-0000" target="new" style="font-weight:bold" value="Documetn library" />

href value you can copy paste from space details dialog ->Browse Page URL .
=========================
this way you would have your link. you can work on our own where you want the list, and with what text, icons ect.
hope this was helpful for you.

Thank you for taking the time to help me.  It looks like your code is telling Alfresco Share's "Getting Started" dashlet to display a link to "Document Library", right?

[savic_prvoslav]

Can you explain where you want to put your link? with picture would be great, i will see to send you code you need.

[lucille_arkenst]

On everyone's Dashboard, in Alfresco explorer (not share).  It doesn't matter where it goes.  But I know you can manually add a link and it appears under Shelf.  It can go there if possible.
(Tried putting an img it didn't work)
