eXo Platform allows you to enable/disable auto-creating a taxonomy tree during a new site creation by adding the
ecms.taxonomy.autoCreateWithNewSite
parameter to the file:
$PLATFORM_TOMCAT_HOME/gatein/conf/configuration.properties (in Tomcat).
$PLATFORM_JBOSS_HOME/standalone/configuration/gatein/configuration.properties (in JBoss).
# Configuration for a taxonomy tree
ecms.taxonomy.autoCreateWithNewSite=false
By default, the parameter is set to false, it means the creation of a taxonomy tree is disabled
when you create a new site.
To enable the function, simply set the parameter to true.
