Disable 'Create site' link in Alfresco 4.2.e

agey

Hi all,

I want to disable 'Create site' link from My Sites dashlet and dropdown menu Sites. I followed this page of the Alfresco wiki but it doesn't work:

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Site_Service#Controlling_site_creation_permissions_in_Alfresco_3.4.6_and_later

Has anyone tried it in 4.2.e version?

Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,
We are using this option in alfresco 4.1.1 Enterprise Edition.
This will not disable the create site link, rather it will not allow the user's to create new site.
If a non-administrator tries to create a new site, it will throw permission error.

Hope this helps you !

It's true, I had not noticed.

Thank you.

One more question. I want to have this configuration in a jar file. Where should I put the configuration file in the jar to override SiteService_security configuration? I put it in custom-slingshot-application-context.xml but it doesn't work. This is my project structure:

config/alfresco/site-webscripts –> new webscripts
config/alfresco/web-extension –> custom-slingshot-application-context.xml and share-config-custom.xml
config/alfresco/web-extension/site-webscripts –> webscripts that override existing ones
source/web –> css files

Thanks,

kevinr

The SiteService_security bean is part of the Alfresco repository bean configuration. So your changes need to be in a *-context.xml file in the alfresco /extension folder - the web-extension folder is only used by the Share web-application.

Create a group GROUP_CreateSiteAdministrator
add your ste creators that are not admins to it.

Modify the my-sites.get.js module

function main()
{
   createSite = false
 
       var result = remote.call("/api/people/" + stringUtils.urlEncode(user.name) + "?groups=true");
       if (result.status == 200)
          {
           var i;          
           
          // Create javascript objects from the server response
          // This is the User and it also contains all groups. 
           var userValue = eval('(' + result + ')');
         
          
           if (userValue.groups.length != 0)
              {
 
                 for (i = 0; i < userValue.groups.length; i++)
                 {
                      if (userValue.groups[i].itemName == "GROUP_ALFRESCO_ADMINISTRATORS") createSite = true;
                      if (userValue.groups[i].itemName == "GROUP_CreateSiteAdministrator") createSite = true; 
                 }
              }            

          }
   
   // Check for IMAP server status
   var result = remote.call("/imap/servstatus"),
      imapServerEnabled = (result.status == 200 && result == "enabled");

   // Prepare the model for the template
   model.imapServerEnabled = imapServerEnabled;
   model.createSite = createSite;
}

main();‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

then in the HTML file my-sites.get.html.ftl modify to check the createsite flag.

            <span class="first-child">
               <#if createSite>
               <a href="#" id="${id}-createSite-button" class="theme-color-1">
                  <img src="${url.context}/res/components/images/site-16.png" style="vertical-align: text-bottom" />
                  ${msg("link.createSite")}</a>
               </#if>      
            </span>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

I tried to implement this method in 5.0a, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. Unsure if I'm doing it wrong. Is this method compatible with 5.0a?
