It is possible to control the visibility of the Repository link in Share through configuration. Note the Repository link is always visible to Administrators.
- Load the file tomcat/shared/classes/alfresco/web-extension/share-config-custom.xml into your favorite editor (assuming you are using the Tomcat application server).
-
Locate the Repository Library config section:
<!-- Repository Library config section --> <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="RepositoryLibrary" replace="true"> <!-- Root nodeRef or xpath expression for top-level folder. e.g. alfresco://user/home, /app:company_home/st:sites/cm:site1 If using an xpath expression, ensure it is properly ISO9075 encoded here. --> <root-node>alfresco://company/home</root-node> <tree> <!-- Whether the folder Tree component should enumerate child folders or not. This is a relatively expensive operation, so should be set to "false" for Repositories with broad folder structures. --> <evaluate-child-folders>false</evaluate-child-folders> <!-- Optionally limit the number of folders shown in treeview throughout Share. --> <maximum-folder-count>500</maximum-folder-count> </tree> <!-- Whether the link to the Repository Library appears in the header component or not. --> <visible>true</visible> </config> -
The configuration that can make the Repository link
visible or invisible for non-administrators is the following:
<visible>false</visible>
Set to true to have the Repository link available to all users.
- Restart the Content Services server.
