4.11 Changing the Number of Recent Places That Are Displayed

You can modify how many recent places are displayed in the Recent Places menu in the Action toolbar. By default, a user’s 20 most recently visited places are displayed. (For more information, see Viewing and Revisiting Recent Placesin the OpenText Vibe 4.0.8 User Guide.)

To change the number of recently visited places that are displayed for each user:

  1. Change to the following directory:

    Linux:

    /opt/novell/teaming/apache-tomcat/
                               webapps/ssf/WEB-INF/classes/config

    Windows:

    c:\Program Files\Novell\Teaming\apache-tomcat\
                               webapps\ssf\WEB-INF\classes\config
  2. Make a backup copy of the ssf-ext.properties file, which is located in the same directory as the ssf.properties file.

  3. Open the ssf.properties file in a text editor.

  4. Search for the following line:

    recent-places-depth=20
  5. Open the ssf-ext.properties file in a text editor.

  6. Copy the recent-places-depth=20 line from the ssf.properties file to the bottom of the ssf-ext.properties file.

  7. Change 20 to the number that represents how many recent entries you want to be displayed for each user. For example, if you want only 10 recently visited entries to be displayed, the line would now read recent-places-depth=10.

  8. Save and close the ssf-ext.properties file.

  9. Close the ssf.properties file without saving it.

  10. Stop and restart Vibe.
