Hi,

I read here (http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=5690)  that we can override the definition of actions.

I tried it an it works fine.
I have override the action "create_space" without any problem.

But now I want to override the action "manage_deleted_items".
I want to add an evaluator to give access only to administrator.
but this time it doesn't work …

I have even try to modify the image and the label to ensure the result, and I have the following issue : OVERRIDING "manage_deleted_items" ACTION DOESN'T HAVE ANY EFFECT … but there is no issue with the create space action  😞

here is the code of my web-client-config-custom.xml file:

<alfresco-config>

   <config>
      <actions>
         <action id="create_space">
            <permissions>
               <permission allow="true">CreateChildren</permission>
            </permissions>
            <evaluator>***.***.***.web.action.evaluator.ShortcutNodeEvaluator</evaluator>
            <label-id>create_space</label-id>
            <image>/images/icons/create_space.gif</image>
            <action>dialog:createSpace</action>
         </action>
        
         <action id="manage_deleted_items">
            <evaluator>***.***.***.web.action.evaluator.ShortcutNodeEvaluator</evaluator>
            <label-id>email_space_users</label-id>
            <image>/images/icons/email_users.gif</image>
            <action>dialog:manageDeletedItems</action>
         </action>
      </actions>
   </config>
   
</alfresco-config>

Any idea ???

This action got moved to the user console page in a previous release and the action definition has been left in the web-client-config-actions.xml file by the looks of it.

The action is now defined in /jsp/users/user-console.jsp as shown below:

<a:actionLink id="manage-deleted-items" value="#{msg.manage_deleted_items}" action="dialog:manageDeletedItems" image="/images/icons/trashcan.gif" />‍‍

You can wrap this inside a boolean evaluator to get the effect you want. You can do this as follows:

<a:booleanEvaluator value="#{NavigationBean.currentUser.admin == true}">
<a:actionLink id="manage-deleted-items" value="#{msg.manage_deleted_items}" action="dialog:manageDeletedItems" image="/images/icons/trashcan.gif" />
</a:booleanEvaluator>‍‍‍‍
