Create Collection

Advanced-UI NOVA-UI

Properties

To be configured in {home}/appserver/conf/custom.properties

collectionCreator.license

type: String, required: yes, default: -

License key (delivered by brix IT Solutions)

collectionCreator.rootNode

type: long, required: yes, default: -

The ID of the root node where the user related collections will be created

collectionCreator.visibleForGroup

type: long, required: yes, default: -

Restrict the use of the plugin to this user group ID (superadmins always see it in any case)

collectionCreator.roleId

type: long, required: yes, default: -

Role which the user will have on his own collections

The IDs of the roles aren't displayed anywhere in the UI. The best way seems to be to export the roles as an XML in the CMA and look for the IDs there.
