User Variable for Workflow template

Biswarup

I do have a "new_job" workflow template, which takes input for Content Contributor (a drop down list). The content contributor in the workflow is a user task and i have used a user variable for the same.
variable Name= "uContributor"
value = "User Variable"
Default Value = "$iw_authors"

The author.uid file includes the following default users: <domain>\Administrator, SYSTEM, domain\user.
While executing, the new job workflow template from content center professional, the Content Contributor drop down list displays all the users in author role. But how can we restrict displaying the 3 default users (sad above) in the dropdown list.

Write your own code to parse the file to generate the list - or - parse the HTML being used in the TAG_info() section before it gets used - to remoe those entries (the former is probably significantly easier than the latter)

However - the easiest solution would be to remove Administrator, System, and domain\user from all but the master.uid file - (actually, I think you can remove domain\user altogether)
