Only site administrators should be able to set default mapping for folders on Plone 4.3
All registered members of my plone site have permission to edit, create and publish content. Unfortunately, they can also change the default display for the folder. This leads to a lot of problems, as site members sometimes - accidentally - change the view template that the folder is not suitable for.
How can I change plone so that only the role administrator can set the default view for all default folders? Normal site members shouldn't be able to.
Since I trust my members, something like a JS + CSS solution that hides the display menu for everyone but site admins would also be acceptable.

The permission you are looking for is called Modify view template
. All roles with this permission can modify the template. If your workflow manages permission, only give it to Administrators.
If your workflow doesn't manage the permission, you can change it globally by changing the security configuration on the user root.
Go to: http://plonesite/manage_access
(Security Tab in ZMI)
Find Modify view template
.
Change your configuration. In your case, allow Administrator
changing the view template.
