Enabling Ideas by default in places

You can set the ideas feature so that when a new place is created, the ideas content type is enabled for the place.

Fastpath: Admin Console: Ideas > Idea Settings > Properties
CAUTION:
After you enable ideas to places, you need to restart your Jive instance.

When someone creates a new place (that is space, group, or project), they can choose which content types can be created in the new place. This setting turns that on by default for ideas. The person creating — or editing — the place can still turn it off.

To enable Idea content type as default setting for places:

  1. In the Admin Console, go to Ideas > Idea Settings > Properties.
  2. Select the Ideas enabled by default check box.
  3. Click Save.
  4. Restart the application as root: /etc/init.d/jive-application restart.
