Problem

 eB: When checking a document back into the system via the web the user is presented with two options:
1. Delete local copy
2. Delete historic files
How can I change these defaults?

Solution

 The settings are in the aspx files in the virtual directory:
When checking in, deselect the delete historic versions option

The file is (path to virtual directory)\PlugIns\DocumentManager\Media\CheckIn.aspx, open it in note pad, go to line 17, the text will read:

<asp:CheckBox ID="deleteOldFiles" Text="Delete Historic Files" runat="server" AccessKey="o"
            Checked="True" Visible="True" />

Change the highlighted text to “False”:

<asp:CheckBox ID="deleteOldFiles" Text="Delete Historic Files" runat="server" AccessKey="o"
            Checked="False" Visible="True" />

The box will now not be checked.

When checking in, the delete local copy should be checked
The file is (path to virtual directory)\PlugIns\DocumentManager\Media\CheckIn.aspx, open it in note pad, go to line 15, the text will read:

        <asp:CheckBox ID="deleteLocal" Text="Delete Local Copy" runat="server" AccessKey="l"
            Visible="True" />

Add the following highlighted section:

        <asp:CheckBox ID="deleteLocal" Text="Delete Local Copy" runat="server" AccessKey="l"
            Checked="True" Visible="True" />
