Activate user

[shin4649]

Hi,

I have created a new user and entered all the user properties such as First Name, Last Name, Email. WhenI acivate the user by right click the user and select Activate, all these properties are not replicated at the published instance.

However, when I use the Activate Tree to activate the path /home/users, unchecking the Only Modified, the user properties are replicated properly to the publish instance.

Why can't I right click the user and activate the user?

I am using CQ5.3.

In 5.3 the nodes of type nt:hierarchyNode (e.g. sling:Folder or nt:folder) are not replicated per default. The profile and preferences nodes are of type sling:Folder thus do not get replicated.  As a workaround create a package & activate it.

Though it is possible to change the default nodetype for profile nodes to be used under http://<host>:<port>/system/console/configMgr/com.day.cq.security.CqProfileProvider
 Note:- changing the node type gets effective for new created user only.

I tried changing the node type to nt:unstructured in both author and publish instance. Now the profile node is 

      

jcr:primaryType

Name

nt:unstructured

But still can't activate the profile properties when right click user and select Activate. Only way I can activate is by using Activate Tree.
