Hi,
I use the nodeforum module and want to hide the contenttype reply on "create content" page.
Is there a easy way to get this done?
I want to be able to give the anonymous users the ability to add replies on the forum-items on the forum page.
So I only do not want the reply contenttype be shown on the "create content" page.
Has somebody a solution for this please?
Thanks a lot in advance!
greetings,
Martijn

what?
if you're using core forum module, then all users should see if a content type called 'create forum' (a new topic) and not anything for reply. not sure why you would create a content type called 'reply' - forums have replies.

Hi,
I just can't find the info to get this working.
How can I hide a contenttype from the "create content" page and still enable the contenttype on other places.
I would like to give my users the ability to reply to forum items (I want to use the nodeforum module), but not give them the ability to add replies on the "create content" page.
I only saw: http://drupal.org/node/113898#comment-500736, but this is for Drupal 6 and not for Drupal 5.
Somebody a suggestion. Is the "create content" page themeble, so I can say something like.
Please assist! Thank you for your reply.

you could 'sort of' hide it by simply removing that menu
for example, on my site users are pretty limited to what they can do - they can write a story, ask a question, post a forum, etc...some of that is intuitive, so i've simply removed the navigation menu link to 'create content' and instead moved each item up a level - this effectively hides the page for 'create content' unless a user clicks around in the breadcrumb (which you could probably hide with 'custom breadcrumb' or something)
e.g. OLD menu:
my account
my friends
--add
--pending
--etc
create content
--add blog
--post forum
--write story
--etc
logout
NEW menu
my account
my friends (removed subitems, as they appear when the link is clicked)
write story (goes directly to node creation, and instructions can appear there)
write blog (ditto)
[removed forum because the option to 'post new forum topic' appears at top of all forums anyways]
in my case, i was simply trying to simplify the whole menu - make it super easy, reduce subnav, etc...this won't work for everybody, but it may work for you
in fact, i think there's a way to not display breadcrumbs at all (via css or by removing breadcrumb variable from page.tpl of your theme)
I agree with zilla on this
I agree with zilla on this one, the easiest way to do this, and I think a more user friendly way would be to create custom menus groups. There are no restriction in Drupal that disallows you to make multiple menus with the same path, ie: www.mysite.com/tracker under Primary Links and www.mysite.com/tracker under Navigation. And by default any menu group that is made, becomes available as a block. Aha! so make a custom menu group for each, say, role, Anonymous, Authenticated, Joe Shomo, etc. with whatever menus you'd like each role to be allowed to see and in the Block section delegate who is allowed to see the block, you can even delegate on what pages it is seen.
Hope this was helpful,

Hi, Very valuable solutions.
Hi,
Very valuable solutions. But I do not want the menu-structure to be much different than standard, because I want to use the same model for more drupal instances with different content-types.
Isn't there a theming solution out there?
If not off course I consider one of the proposed solutions, but I prefer a themable solution please!
thanks for your suggestions!

you'll have to talk to the css gurus
i'm sure there's some way to comment out the element by putting in a wrap of it's own, some kind of div, some kind of css voodoo...
