With the advent of Adobe Connect 10.5, a new option to gain access to an Adobe Connect Virtual Classroom was added: Enrolled students and account members can enter the room.

The complete list of Virtual Classroom access options after 10.5 is depicted here:

Sometimes it may be deemed prudent to limit this list. To do so, you may edit the sco_editxsl file in the appservappsvirtual_classroom folder:

The full path may look like this: Connect10.xappservappsvirtual_classroomsco_edit.xsl

Note: Before editing any of the Adobe Connect system files, always make a backup copy of the original

Edit the sco_edit.xsl as follows; search for the following entry: <xsl:with-param name=”title” select=”‘vc-registered-users-and-guests‘”/>

This will bring you to the section of the sco_edit.xsl file where you may simply comment out the access option(s) that you do not want displayed in Adobe Connect Central by bracketing them between <!– and –>. For example:

<!–
<p>
<xsl:call-template name=”input-radio”>
<xsl:with-param name=”title” select=”‘vc-registered-users-and-guests’“/>
<xsl:with-param name=”tooltip-id” select=”‘vc-registered-users-and-guests-tooltip’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”permission-principal” select=”‘public-access’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”type” select=”‘radio’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”value” select=”‘remove’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”title-nowrap” select=”‘yes’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”checked” select=”not(/results/nav/@style=’wizard’) and not(/results/permission)”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”script” select=”‘unselectBlockGuestsState()’”/>
</xsl:call-template>
</p>
<p>
<xsl:call-template name=”input-radio”>
<xsl:with-param name=”title” select=”‘enter-vc-room-url‘”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”tooltip-id” select=”‘enter-vc-room-url-tooltip’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”permission-principal” select=”‘public-access’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”type” select=”‘radio’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”value” select=”‘view-hidden’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”title-nowrap” select=”‘yes’”/>
<xsl:with-param name=”script” select=”‘unselectBlockGuestsState()’”/>
</xsl:call-template>
</p>

After editing the sco_edit.xsl, restart the Adobe Connect services and refresh the Adobe Connect Central browser session displaying the Virtual Classroom administration page.
