Hiding users from next step dropdown

Avatar

Level 3

Hi,

Currently for two consecutive participant steps, if you are on the first participant step, the Next Step dropdown appears. However this dropdown contains the next participant step as many times as the number of users in the next participant group plus one option with the next participant group. Do we have a setting which will show only the step with the next participant group and not with its users.

Thanks, Souradeep

Tried the same and it looks like the OOB behaviour. You can customize the participant step to achieve the same. refer [1]

Look at this older community thread:

http://ec2-54-243-235-121.compute-1.amazonaws.com/content/adobeforums/en/experience-manager-forum/ad...

This will require customization to the dialog and possibility the step. 

We have documentation on how to create custom workflow steps - as pointed out in that thread.

Hi Scott, 

I am not asking for customizing the workflow start dialog, my concern is after the workflow has started if you are on a participant step, you get to see the next participant step(if any) as many number of times in the "Next Step" dropdown as the number of users in the next participant group plus the participant group.

I will ask Eng to look at this. This is not mentioned in the AEM docs at:

Hi Scott,

Did you get a chance to find any more information on the same?
