Configuring session history display

By default, users can view up to 200 DMs of the most recently viewed . You can change the maximum number of items displayed in the history list by editing the maxLength property of the cvHistory component components.xml file. Alternatively, you can suppress the display of the History icon on the auxiliary navigation menu, preventing users from accessing session history functionality.

Procedure

  1. To change the maximum number of items displayed on the history list, do the following.
    1. Open the file named ..\templates\FullSupport\etc\skins\Carbon\templates\config\components.xml for editing.
    2. Locate the cvHistory component element <component id="cvHistory">.
    3. Edit the maxLength property of this component, setting its value to the desired number of history items to be displayed.
      For example, to display up to 500 items in the history list, edit the property as follows.
      <prop id="maxLength">500</prop>
    4. Save and close the components.xml file.
    The maximum number of items displayed in the history list is set to the value you specified.
  2. To suppress the display of the History icon on the auxiliary navigation menu, do the following.
    1. Open the file named LiveContent\templates\FullSupport\etc\skins\SKIN-NAME\templates\nav_left.html for editing.
    2. Delete or comment out the following div element within the file.
      <div class="sButtonGroupM">
           <div class="sButtonBoxM" id="CVCtrl_history" cvControl="1"/>
      </div>
      
    3. Save and close the nav_left.html file.
    The History icon will not appear on the auxiliary navigation menu.
