Hiding the "Manage Apps..." menu.

Hi all, I am trying to get rid of the "Manage Apps Menu" for non administrators. It is under the app tab. Is there any way of setting permissions to this similar to other apps such as Windows etc? Can't seem to find the settings for this.

Thanks

I know that you can remove the entire "App" menu by setting the AccountBar module parameter "mode" to "lite" :

<module name="AccountBar" layoutPanel="appHeader" mode="lite"/>

But the "Manage Apps" menu item is a bit more hardwired.Furthermore you can also navigate to the same target via the Manager->Apps path.

If you are using role based permissions correctly, the users should only be able to see the apps that they have permission for anyway.

Thanks, looks like it should be fine. I was concerned that someone could do something odd by going into managed apps, but if they are only restricted to the apps they "should" see then we will leave at default.

Thanks for the reply.

Hi,

Can I hide the App menu for just one App or maybe one user?
