The permission to access the "My workflow tasks" & "My publication requests" portlets should be possible through the roles administration

"My workflow tasks" & "My publication requests" portlets should only appear in the control panel if the user has the correct permissions

[Jorge Ferrer]

We have decided to delay this task until the next release, because the implementation is not obvious and it would not be wise to commit it so close to the release date.

Is this still being looked at ?, it's currently a nuisance for public facing sites that allow editing of the profile by users in the control panel

[Jorge Ferrer]

Hi Jelmer,

Sorry, I hadn't had time to look at this until today. The good news is that it's been really simple after the introduction of the permission "Access in Control Panel" that was done after the initial attempt to fix this. All I have done to support this is to remove the following line from the liferay-portlet.xml file for the related portlets:

<control-panel-entry-class>com.liferay.portal.workflow.MyWorkflowControlPanelEntry</control-panel-entry-class>

Then assign the permission "Access in Control Panel" for the portlets for the roles that you want to assign to the users that should have access to them.

You can do this in a Liferay 6.0 installation and it should work. We'll do this by default for 6.1 and assign the permission to the User role so that the default behavior is the same but it's easy to change through the roles admin.

I've converted the ticket to an improvement and changed the title to acknowledge the situation after the introduction of the "Access in Control Panel" permission

[Jorge Ferrer]

I have committed the necessary changes to have this by default in 6.1.

Do you think it's necessary to have an upgrade script that adds the "Access in Control Panel" permissions by default to portals upgrading from previous versions?

[Brian Chan]

Waiting for upgrade. Already reviewed changes.

[Jorge Ferrer]

I'm already working on the upgrade, but it's hard because I need to take care of many permission algs, so it'll take a while.

This problem is resolved in ticket LPS-18201.

This two portlets will appear in the Control Panel if the user has pending submissions/tasks
