Changing the Alfresco Site Manage Permissions Action

To change the behavior of the Manage Permissions action to be the same as that available from the Share Repository button.

In:

/opt/alfresco/tomcat/webapps/share/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/share-documentlibrary-config.xml

Replace:

<!-- Manage permissions (site roles) -->
<action id="document-manage-site-permissions" type="javascript" icon="document-manage-permissions" label="actions.document.manage-permissions">
<param name="function">onActionManagePermissions</param>
<permissions>
<permission allow="true">ChangePermissions</permission>
</permissions>
<evaluator>evaluator.doclib.action.siteBased</evaluator>
</action>

With:

<!-- Manage permissions (site roles) -->
<action id="document-manage-site-permissions" type="pagelink" icon="document-manage-permissions" label="actions.document.manage-permissions">
<param name="page">manage-permissions?nodeRef={node.nodeRef}</param>
<permissions>
<permission allow="true">ChangePermissions</permission>
</permissions>
<evaluator>evaluator.doclib.action.siteBased</evaluator>
</action>

Reload Alfresco and you should now have the more granular permissions from the Alfresco Share repository browser in the Site Document Library browser.
