Removing or 'hiding' Links from Alfresco Share

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

Hello,

i'm a newbie at Alfresco and actually developping an extension that will "simplify" the basic UI of Alfresco.
I need actually to hide some links :
- from the header like "Sites", "Tasks", "Repository" etc.
- from the document actions like "Start a new workflow", "Publish", "See in the browser" etc.
What is the easiest way to do so?

Thanks

Override this file - document-actions.js (located at tomcat\webapps\share\components\document-details).

Inside OnReady() method, you will find a for loop :

for (var i = 0, ii = actions.length; i < ii; i++)
         
{
            
actionHTML += this.renderAction(actions, record);
         
}
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

Here, you can put your business logic (some if/else conditions) to prevent the actions from appearing.

For testing the value of actions, you can put a javascript alert like : alert(actions.id);
This will give you an idea of which action you want to hide.
After doing that you can write something like :

if(actions.id == "document-view-content")
{
  //do nothing.
}
