Is there a way to have a checkbox in the publishing section or somewhere else to enable/disable the printer friendly version link for specific nodes?

There is already a way to disable the print-friendly link per node type (in http://example.com/admin/content/types), but if what you're asking is to disable per node, that is something that would require the use of a print module database table.. I am a bit unconfortable at doing that for now...

Maybe in the future.

Yes - I am asking per node... And it seems like it would be a pretty simple table - with just node ID and a boolean for whether or not to have a printable version...

Just my feature request - thanks for the consideration...

I would need that feature as well...

I don't currently need that, but I see where it could be useful. So add another vote for this request.

Just a note on this feature. There's already a way to achieve this, via the visibility settings of the module. To disable a certain node, you just have to add it's path to the list of disallowed paths.

I am still planning to do something about adding a checkbox in the node creation/editing form.

Looking forward to this feature as adding the path to list of disallowed path is not the most efficient UI method.

Hello all,

You can grab the latest dev versions (5.x-4.x-dev and 6.x-1.x-dev) and test this feature.

Thanks for waiting.

hi and thanks for a great module

i am testing this-

and note the following problem...

individual nodes are not respecting the default settings
for the node type in admin / content types

meaning, if i have toggled off the display of printer friendly
and / or send to friend in admin / content types

then, when i go to create a node of that type-
i have to toggle off the settings again, for each node-
as printer friendly and send are now on by default

thanks
v

Yes,

But the node type setting overrides the per-node type.. This means that if you disable the per-type display of the link, then the per-node display becomes irrelevant. Or in other words, the per-node setting only works as long as the per-type setting is on.

Or in yet other words, the per-type setting doesn't provide any indication of the status of all the respective per-node settings.

Will this feature be rolled into stable versions soon?
