jitendra_k - April 29, 2008 - 06:07
Hi,
I am new to Drupal, I stuck in to removing the setting options in Administer module(when creating new content) like Menu settings, Comment settings, Publishing options, Log message etc.
How i can hide these options or remove when adding new content. Plz help me to sort out these problem.
You are probably logged in as the administrator...
The administrator account will always see every option when adding/editing content. If you want to only see certain things then create an account and user roles & permissions to limit what the account can see and do.
Content type
You can disable these options from Content type.

What about Users?
Anyone know how you would hide these on the user/x/edit pages?

Removing menu settings from Drupal create content pages
Hi,
There's a great new module on:
http://drupal.org/project/ctm
Which does just this. It also allows you to e.g. remove the option of adding a link to the Navigation menu (which I personally have never had a need for), making it a far more user-friendly interface.
You can also remove the option of comments altogether, etc. etc.

Thank you
Thank you very much.
Initially it did not work for me, but worked after I changed the module weight to 10 on default Drupal 6 install. I suspect that if you have many modules you'd have to set the weight to higher value.
To those who need to change module weight:
To change module weight you have to get into your `system` table and edit the weight for this module.
Edit: If I'm confusing you, please google "drupal change module weight". Or alternatively install "Utility" module which claims to help to change module weight. fyi I haven't tried the Utility module.
Carpe Diem!

My users get completely confused by "Authoring Information" and "Publishing Options", and they have no need to see these options. I would love to be able to hide them from a role (or globally even).
Try form filter module

Yes
The Utility modules does, indeed, have a module weights setting added to the module admin page.
It also has a type_defaults module for publishing and comment options.

Users only see fieldsets for things they have permission to see-- configure permissions correctly at admin/user/permissions and they won't fieldsets they don't have permission for.

Thats great an all WorldFalls but what if I want a user to be able to create content but not be able to set it as promoted to the front page!

Don't give them the 'administer nodes' permission.

Publishing options
As WorldFallz says, don't give them 'adminster nodes' permissions. You can set the defaults by going to admin/content/types (Admin, then select Content Types and click edit next to the appropriate content type).
