Hiding "SourceCode Control" tab for web only testers

[joshbaltzell]

I have no desire to display source code to our testing staff, so I would not like them to default to the "SourceCode Control" tab when they log in. Is there some way to make the tab not display for those users?

You can't hide the Source Control tab, but if users have no access to Source Control, they will see just the word Repositores and a blank page.

This setting is in the Admin Web Client under Source Control Repositories->(Repository name)->Repository Access. Set rights for item tracking-only users to "No Access."

This is an interesting statement because on our installation of Fortress, the users default to the Item tracking tab when they login and I did not configure anything special for that. Perhaps your team is going to a different initial URL. I direct all of our users to http://OurFortressServer/Fortress/Default.aspx.

Thanks for your suggestion. That URL is not well documented, but yes, that works. Also just http://YourFortressServer/Fortress.

Users will still see the Source Control tab, but at least they're landing on the Item Tracking first.
