Hiding Advanced Node Options From Users
Gerard McGarry - June 20, 2007 - 21:34
I'm working with an installation of Drupal at the moment and I'd like to hide the superfluous parts of the node/add page that users don't necessarily need to see. Is there a way to hide the content type, path and other options so that users don't have to bother about them?
I'd like to streamline the interface to make it as easy as possible for people to add content.
I suspect it already is
Normally users other than user 1 see a simplier version of the create content forms unless you specifically add permissions. I would suggest creating a "regular" user account and try adding content with that to see what the form looks like.
This might work
Try creating a group for these users. With the group, you can assign the proper rights under the Access Control section so that they can only access the relevant parts. When you create a new user, add them to the group you just created so that they inherit those same rights.
For example, if you created a "publisher" group you could not grant publishers permission to administer users so they would then not have that right.
Your wish is granted
