Description

5.1.0 introduces a new feature, Personal Communites for everyone. Pre 5.1 only Power Users get a Personal Community.

Improvement:
Create a setting in portal.properties that would allow to revert 5.1 to revert back to the old logic of only Power Users receiving a personal community.

Ok, made it backwards compatible now via:

#

  1. Set this to true if users must have the Power User role to have private
  2. pages.
    #
    layout.user.private.layouts.power.user.required=false

and

#

  1. Set this to true if users must have the Power User role to have public
  2. pages.
    #
    layout.user.public.layouts.power.user.required=false

So it's even more flexible than before.

Hi Brian,

I'm very glad you did this. In fact I think the default should be 'true' for backwards compatibility. Is there any reason to set it to false?

Nevermind, I've seen that you've set it to false by default in portal-legacy-5.0.properties

I've documented the use of that file in http://wiki.liferay.com/index.php/Upgrade_Instructions_from_5.0_to_5.1#Changes_in_configuration_properties

this is really great. thanks a lot for adding this. I would have had to fix the code otherwise since we definitely wanted to keep the power user methodology.

I set the below in portal-ext.properties
layout.user.private.layouts.power.user.required=true
layout.user.public.layouts.power.user.required=true

I then login as a non-power-user, if I move over the My-Places, I can still see the PUBLIC and PRIVATE page links under My-Community. Although the pages is 0, I can still proceed to manage these pages

Question > How to totally disable personal community pages for non-power-users , that is, should not even see the My-Community when I move over the My-Places
