Introduction

Change some parts of Plone and make possible for users to delete contents not so easily.

The Plone behaviour

Plone (Zope) base the power to delete object looking for the “Delete objects” permission on containers. This mean that normally users that can delete contents inside a folder can delete all contents. In our experience, no-one want a workflow that make possibile to users that can’t modify a content, to be able to delete it.

This product change the Plone user interface behaviour, hiding the possibility to delete contents when you can’t modify it.

How Plone works after the installation

For deleting a content you must have:

  • “Delete objects” permission on the parent folder

  • “Delete objects” permission on the content itself

  • Beeing able to modify the content (all the contents) you want to delete

Security

This product is mainly targeted on Plone UI and it monkeypatch the low level permission for cutting documents.

If you run a task, a 3rd party product or whatever piece of code that delete objects, this will run with the default Plone permissions (so, only checking the “Delete objects” on containers).

Alternatives

A very similar product (probably better maintained): collective.deletepermission
