Many of my customers has asked for a simple way to add existing web based applications to Alfresco, so that Alfresco is their main gateway to all applications. I have done this for them by customizing the Share Header to add menu links, and then by using an iframe. By using an iframe, you still have access to all Alfresco menus for easy navigation. Not all applications are iframe friendly, so those you can add as links that open in a separate window. And yes, putting application in an iframe is not true integration and does note make Alfresco a true portal, but for almost no cost at all it does add value.

You have successfully installed Alfresco Share and now you want to expose Share on internet so that you can collaborate with external users. But you do not want them to access certain pages, like the repository page, for whatever reason you have. First thing you do is to remove the button or menu from the toolbar, having looked at the instructions found on the wiki about Share Header.

Alfresco Share use as standard TinyMCE for inline editing of html files. I needed to customize the editor for a project, but the TinyMCE editor used has some specific Alfresco customizations. Instead trying to understand the Alfresco code, I started from scratch and used the CKEditor, ckeditor.com.
