Erase button in single record

Hi MercerDesign,

I don't know if it will work, but possibly you could wrap Hans' whole code block in an if statement that references a 'Hide The Erase Button' checkbox in one of your admin single record sections, so that you can turn the erase button on and off.

Like:

<?php if ( $your_admin_sectionRecord['hide_the_erase_button'] == 1):?> (Hans' code) <?php endif ?>

or just add another criteria into the beginning of Han's if statement IE:

<?php if($your_admin_sectionRecord['hide_the_erase_button'] == 1 && isset($_GET['menu']) && $_GET['menu'] === "section_name"): ?>

Please post if this works and I'll add it to the CMSB Cookbook

Best,

Jerry Kornbluth

That worked, thank you

That does work, thank you, but ideally I want it to affect the site globally, this only works for on section editor.

Hi, I've done this by updating the theme css.

I would not recommend that. It will hide all the "Erase" buttons from other sections, which you might need.

Thank you, I've reverted the style sheet but where or how do I use this plugin?

You must place the file in the plugins folder, then activate the plugin in setup> plugins.

Thank you. That has worked perfectly!
