Question involving menus block on node add/edit pages [#2407555]

I recently installed Atrium Folders on OA2 and discovered that to really use it, you need to turn off the menu block on the node/add form (otherwise menu things get confusing pretty quickly). So I found the proper menu block under the admin/structure/pages, which is the page /node/%node/edit page. Under the folders tab, you then go to Content where you see all the pane blocks. I then disabled the menu block on the sidebar.

I would like to do the same on the section pages, but would also like to have the menu block enabled by default so the sections would show up on the Group menu in the toolbar. At the present time, the menu block is disabled by default, so if you hide the menu block, the section name basically disappears from existence.

So my question is simple: How do I change the default checkbox so that the menu is enabled by default on the node add/edit section pages?

We don't directly support Atrium Folders. You might want to wait another week until the 2.30 release of OA2 that will contain the new supported OA Files module and will also have options for controlling which sections appear in the Space menu (you can add a section to the menu to enable the menu within the section, but then hide/disable the section appearing in the space menu ribbon on the pages) Also, in the next version, adding a new section automatically adds it to the Space menu.

OK, that sounds reasonable. I've already added the nuvole Atrium Folders module, and it works well, just FYI

Yep, aware of Atrium Folders from nuvole. But you haven't see OA Files yet...it will blow you away ;) Let me know what you think in a week or so. We'll have a webinar on it before the end of the month also.

Hi jbrundle - let us know if the new Files app (first released in OA 2.30) solves this feature request for you - or if you think that it should remain open.
