Hello,

i would like to hide the "edit" button and the language tab. It is not necessary to deactivate it.
Is it possible to do this with the custom.css?
If i had one example how to hide it, i could work my way throug with the inspector/firebug so i can hide other buttons / tabs.

Thank you
Franz

Hi Franz,

You are editing via the front end of the site?

Is that correct

Cheers

Hello,

i want to give a small number of users the right to create articels via the frontend.
For this i use the ark inline editor from arkextensions.com. The possible settings for the users are very restricted, for example the publishing is directly after the saving of the article.
So i want to hide every button on the frontend that is not absulutely necessary.
I neither need the button to get into the editing mode (this mode i reach through the inline editor) nor most of the buttons inside the editing mode (needed features will be provided by the editor itself).

Hope this was helpful.

Hi Franz,

You can change the template overide for the form-

\templates\buildr\html\com_content\form\edit.php

You edit the section listing the list elements

<ul class="zen-nav zen-nav-tabs">
<li class="active"><a href="#editor" data-toggle="tab"><?php echo JText::_('JEDITOR') ?></a></li>
<?php if ($params->get('show_urls_images_frontend') ) : ?>
<li><a href="#images" data-toggle="tab"><?php echo JText::_('COM_CONTENT_IMAGES_AND_URLS') ?></a></li>
<?php endif; ?>
<li><a href="#publishing" data-toggle="tab"><?php echo JText::_('COM_CONTENT_PUBLISHING') ?></a></li>
<li><a href="#language" data-toggle="tab"><?php echo JText::_('JFIELD_LANGUAGE_LABEL') ?></a></li>
<li><a href="#metadata" data-toggle="tab"><?php echo JText::_('COM_CONTENT_METADATA') ?></a></li>
</ul>

Try commenting out the lines not needed

Please back up the file first

Paul

With the edit button don't you need that to edit articles?
Does "ark inline editor" mean this isn't needed?

Hello,

no, i don´t need the edit button. I have made a screenshot for you. If you are on a page with any content or module you have the right to edit, the sidebar pops up and you can activate the edit-mode. Then you can click directly in any content you like to edit and a toolbar appears. To create a new article you can go on "new article" in the sidebar.
If you like to try the solution on my website, i can open a ticket.

Hi Franz,

Did my first answer work ok for you?

With the modules you can turn off the edit icon I believe via the global configuration and the site tab

Setting being

"Mouse-over Edit Icons for"

Can you confirm this works for modules and I'll check with the developers on the article override

I try that with the corporation template here 2017.ats-buntentor.de/

I try to add the components/com_content/views/form/tmpl/edit.php
to
templates/corporation/html/com_content/form/edit.php
but nothing happens
I wanna remove all the option of th accordeon, the users will being able to edit only text and image. It´s possible?

any idea?

Hi Ricardo,

Can you indicate in a picture what you want to remove?

Cheers
Paul

the form aloow text picture and many other parameters, all the parameter I wanna remove, only the picture and the text wil be show to edit.

Cheer
Ricardo

Sorry, Ricardo, I'm not clear what you are referring to

Are you wanting to change a module or an article via the front end?

Is this what you are wanting to change? e.g. the tabs showing in an article





Cheers
Paul

Yes,
my intention is put available only Text Editor and image Botton to users manipulate, all others parameters of the frontend edit form I wanna hidde. I means, all the accordion tabs of the pic I post.
how can I do that?

now I understand your doubt, is a custom html module to be edited by frontend users

What editor are you using? the default or Joomla?

Cheers
Paul

hey paul

I use the JCE editor

cheers

Hi Ricardo,

The style I suggested before removes these options





.form-validate #options {
display: none;
}

hey paul,

it´s doens´t affect anything
