Using Elvis 6 with Adobe InDesign – Removing the installer from the Install page

This article is part of a series that describes how to use Elvis 6 with Adobe InDesign.

In this article, the process of removing the installer from the Install page is described. This can be required when users should not be able to download and install the plug-in themselves.

The Elvis Install page allows users to install the Elvis InDesign client as well as Elvis Agent.

When the Elvis InDesign client does not have to be offered to users as an option to install, it can be removed from the page by setting the following option:

• File: cluster-config.properties.txt
• Option name: install.show.indesign
• Value: false or true
• Requires Elvis Server restart: no

Example: install.show.indesign=false

Note: When also hiding the installer for Elvis Agent, the option for accessing the page from which the installers can be downloaded is automatically removed from the Avatar menu.
