Delete permission to collaborator

[stefano]

Hi,
I would like the collaborator role has the permission to delete all the files, not only his own files.
How can I set this?
Thank you
bye

Hi,
did you solved it?
I found the same problem and now I'm searching for a solution, can you give me a hint?

I had the same problem and I solved it by creating a new role, combinig the "Collaborator" one with delete permission.

You should edit the config file "permissionDefinitions.xml" an add:

      <permissionGroup name="CustomCollaborator" allowFullControl="false" expose="true">
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Editor" type="cm:cmobject" />
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Contributor" type="cm:cmobject" />
         <includePermissionGroup permissionGroup="Delete" type="sys:base" />
      </permissionGroup>
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

under:

<!– ================================================ –>
   <!– Permissions available to all content and folders –>
   <!– ================================================ –>
   
   <permissionSet type="cm:cmobject" expose="selected">
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Now you have defined your own rol. After that you should indicate where to apply it. In he same file add:

<permissionGroup name="CustomCollaborator" extends="true" expose="true"/>
‍‍‍

under:

<permissionSet type="cm:content" expose="selected">
‍‍‍

and:

<permissionSet type="cm:folder" expose="selected">
‍‍‍

Finally you have to give a name to the role in Alfresco. To do that, edit the file "webclient.properties", search for the section

# Repo permission display labels
# Note - these come from the server, the english translation is generally the same
‍‍‍‍

and add:

CustomCollaborator=NameYouWant
‍‍‍

Hope it help you!

I´m spanish, so sorry if there is any mistake.

Regards!
