Ronald Sarayudej 10 Years Ago A little off topic but I really really like the combination of the new dockbar + control panel differentiation (separation between site admin and portal / system admin).Is it possible to put custom items into the dockbar? I could see some plugin or site admin wanting some super-commonly-used link in there. Please sign in to reply. Reply as...

Ben Uphoff 10 Years Ago Very nice work on this for v6.2, folks. A question: how do we remove the "My Sites" dropdown from the dockbar? We're using org sites to allow for org-specific doc library file storage, but want that to be transparent to the user (we're using the merge feature for public pages) Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Jorge Ferrer Ben Uphoff 10 Years Ago Hey Ben,As of 6.2, I think the easiest way is with a hook that overwrites the dockbar portlet JSPs. The most specific one you can overwrite is /html/portlet/dockbar/view_my_sites.jspf but since it's a JSPf you will need to either restart the app server or also overwrite the view.jsp to make sure it detects the change.For future versions we want to learn more about the type of customizations that Liferay users need and make them possible without any development. We had some ideas for 6.2 but didn't have enough feedback to ensure we were choosing the right customization points so we decided to defer it. Please sign in to reply. Reply as... Cancel Ben Uphoff Jorge Ferrer 10 Years Ago Thanks much, Jorge.

Yamina AZIZ 9 Years Ago Hello Jorge!I have a problem about dockbar in Liferay 6.2 (ee sp3) and I don't know if this is a bug or not.I create an user with a new role that I have defined with some permissions.The user has not access to the dockbar on his private layouts, but only on his public layouts. When I add the role "Power User" to this user, he sees the dockbar on his private layouts, even if I remove all the permissions to "Power User".Am I obliged to be "Power User" (or "Administrator" I suppose) to get access to the dockbar on private layouts?Thanking you in advance.
