Issue

  • We want to hide the above-mentioned option from the Documents and media because we don't want our users to be able to add videos, can we do it somehow?

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.4+

Resolution

  • It is not possible to hide the external video shortcut for regular users with the current configuration out of the box.

NOTE: The following resolution requires customization and should only be implemented at the discretion of your team. Liferay Support will not be able to assist with designing or implementing customizations.

  • If you want to hide this option, we recommend implementing the DLFileEntryTypeVisibilityController. This approach will allow you to control and manage the visibility of the external video shortcut more effectively. Something similar to https://github.com/liferay/liferay-portal/blob/e01988960ddfdb5a9948a603c7921babfcb[…]y/controller/GoogleDocsDLFileEntryTypeVisibilityController.java but in the isVisible method return false.
