Question

By default Files haven’t workflow

So i put them the simple publication workflow (private -> submit -> publish)

I want the authenticated users could not modify the file when it is published

(on Plone 4.0.7)

Answer 1

You should try this:

• Go to portal_workflow -> contents
• Copy & Paste simple_publication_workflow
• Rename copy_of_simple_publication_workflow to something else (eg. my_files_workflow)
• Go to my_files_workflow -> States -> published -> Permissions
• Uncheck the unwanted Permissions

Now you can assign this new workflow to your files.
