Access Permissions

Is it possible to make the access permission drop-down box (which appears at the end of each content upload form) 'admin' only ?

 

  • Ok, figured it out after a bit of hacking about. This will remove the access permissions drop down menu on all users who dont have admin access. In my opinion it makes for a much cleaner profile screen.

    Edit this file:

    root\htdocs\ELGG-INSTALL-DIR\views\default\input\access.php

    Insert the following code:

    if (elgg_is_admin_logged_in())
    {
    *Current file code content goes here*
    }

  • @Alex : thats not the proper way of modifying Elgg. Copy the same file and put it inside

    mod/your_theme/views\default\input\access.php and make the modification in that file

  • Can I use this mod for my site where I need every user set as default to private and to stay that way until they make a friend and the info is then shared only between friends
