Remove the edit icon in the List View

[chrislynch8]

Hi,

For a module I want to remove the edit button icon (Pencil) that appears to the right of all records when in the list view. I only want to do this for one module - this way I restrict user to edit the module from the Subpanel of the related parent record.

Where can I do this as it is not an option in the listviewdefs.php.

Hello,

Add following line of code in function display in view.list.php of desired module,

 $this->lv->quickViewLinks = false;

I don't have a view.list.php for this custom module so this is what I created and it didn't work.

 <?php
require_once('include/MVC/View/views/view.list.php');
class FDC_Accounts_HistoryViewList extends ViewList
{
    function FDC_Accounts_HistoryViewList()
    {
        $this->lv->quickViewLinks = false;
        parent::ViewList();^
    }
}
?>

Hello,

Add that line in function display()

Hi,

I've added the function display(){ $this->lv->quickViewLinks = false;} and I left the other function above in place with parent::Viewlist();. Should the other Function be removed? Or do I need to add something else to the function display()

Hi,

Just an update but I have this working now. I was missing the

 parent::Display(); 
  

in my function.

Everything is working now - no more edit icons. Thanks

The easiest way to do this is to remove editbutton from subpanel definition. You may found that code in child record subpanel definition module/metadata/subpanel/subpanelname.php

         'edit_button'=>array(
            'widget_class' => 'SubPanelEditButton',
             'module' => $module_name,
             'width' => '4%',
        ), 
  

If you are using this child subpanel for other parent modules, then create copy of the subpanel definition and put the new name in layoutdefs for the parent module.

This will remove the icon where the module in question is appearing as a subpanel but it will not remove the icon from the list view of the module.

Exactly, but that is what you asked for ;-)

Nope

For a module I want to remove the edit button icon (Pencil) that appears to the right of all records when in the list view. I only want to do this for one module - this way I restrict user to edit the module from the Subpanel of the related parent record.

Now a user cannot not edit this module record from its detail view - they can only edit it in the subpanel of the parent record.
