18-2 Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrators Guide for Oracle WebCenter

18.1 Setting Up Default Subscription Preferences

WebCenter Spaces users set their personal Subscriptions preferences through the WebCenter Spaces Preferences dialog. Before this happens, the WebCenter administrator can set default values that determine the application-level subscription options that are available to all users and whether those defaults can be changed. This section provides an overview of Subscription defaults and steps you through the process of setting default values. This section includes the following subsections: ■ Section 18.1.1, What You Should Know About Subscription Defaults ■ Section 18.1.2, Setting Subscription Defaults ■ Section 18.1.3, Setting Subscriptions Preferences in WebCenter Spaces

18.1.1 What You Should Know About Subscription Defaults

Administrator-level Subscription preferences are set in a custom XML file that you create and then use to supersede the file that is provided for this purpose out of the box notification-service-settings.xml. The settings in the custom XML file are analogous to the application-level subscriptions settings available to users through Subscription Preferences in the WebCenter Spaces application for more information, see the section, Setting Application-Level Subscriptions, in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Users Guide for Oracle WebCenter. Each setting provides three attributes: ■ id—for specifying the service ID: – oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.connections, the Connections feature of the People Connections service – oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.wall, the Message Board feature of the People Connections service – oracle.webcenter.peopleconnections.kudos, the Feedback feature of the People Connections service – oracle.connections. community, Space membership management ■ subscription-enabled—For specifying the default value for the preference option: true or false ■ end-user-configurable—For enabling users to change the established default or preventing users from doing so: true or false These attributes work together to determine the initial state of the General Subscriptions tab on the Subscriptions panel in the WebCenter Spaces Preferences dialog Figure 18–1 . Tip: Rather than enabling or disabling the entire subscription capability, the subscription-enabled attribute merely sets the initial state of the preference option. For example, if subscription-enabled=true, then the associated subscription option is checked by default in the WebCenter Spaces Preferences dialog. If subscription-enabled=false, then the associated subscription option is not checked by default in the dialog.
