How is it possible to disable Site Admin actions for particular groups, e.g. Activate?
Following the concept 'Everything is content', Site Admin actions as such are also pure nodes in the repository which are thus subject of access control.
In order to disable and completely hide a certain action in the Site Admin console for a particular group, a corresponding group ACL has to be defined that denies read access to this action.
Following example will deal with the Activate action.
In order to set the actual ACL on above action node, the CRX Content Explorer has to be used. Following are the steps how to disable the Activate action for a group:
At this point, members of the above specified group won't have access to the Activate action anymore.
Based on the above given instructions, basically all other actions available in the Site Admin can be equally controlled via permissions. Following is a list of paths under which actions reside for different consoles:
