The definative remove/add tab solution!

Thanks a million for taking the time to do this, it's really helpful.

I did as above and this worked great. But to tell the truth I don't fully understand it, so I've been experimenting myself at trying to add and delete other tabs... without much success...

I have very limited php knowledge so fail to understand most of the lines in the associative arrays. I've checked out the module developer guide but this makes little sense to me as it's not written in plain english (so for a designer very hard to understand). In fact it will be quicker to tell you what I think I do understand.

$items['I think this is the path that the tab we're refering to is responsible for']
'access callback' => 'this is how we refer to our tab further down the page'
'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK - I think this just means it's a tab

No idea on title, title callback or title arguments - apart from it obviously reffering to the title.

Not too sure on page callback - but I think it may be irrelevent for deleting tabs.

No idea on either of the arguments!

This is what I've attempted below... don't laugh too hard... just a little.... at least I tried! The only thing that actually works is the remove content tab from search (which isn't surprising as it's almost identicle to the 'user' search removal that you provided). Removing the edit tab form node 15 is doing something, as I can't access the edit page now, but the tab is still there. However, I can't even access user pages now though so the rest are just a mess!

<?php
function d6_menu() {

/**
 * Define array to remove 'Content' tab on search pages
 */

$items['search/node/%menu_tail'] = array(
      'title callback' => 'module_invoke',
      'title arguments' => array('node', 'search', 'name', TRUE),
      'page callback' => 'search_view',
      'page arguments' => array($name),
      'access callback' => 'd6_search',
      'access arguments' => array('node'),
      'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
);

/**

      'title arguments' => array('user', 'user', 'name', TRUE),
      'page callback' => 'user_guestbook_view',
      'page arguments' => array($name),
      'access callback' => 'd6_guestbook',
      'access arguments' => array('user'),
      'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
);

/**

$items['user/%user'] = array(
      'title callback' => 'module_invoke',
      'title arguments' => array('user', 'name', TRUE),
      'page callback' => 'user_view',
      'page arguments' => array($name),
      'access callback' => 'd6_user',
      'access arguments' => array('node'),
      'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
);

/**

 */

$items['user/%user'] = array(
      'title' => 'Profile',
      'page callback' => 'd6_user_get_profile',
      'page arguments' => array(1),
      'access callback' => 'd6_profile_access',
      'access arguments' => array('access content'),
      'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
);

/**
 * Define array to remove 'Edit' tab on node 15
 */
 
 $items['node/15/edit'] = array(
      'title callback' => 'module_invoke',
      'title arguments' => array('15', 'node', 'name', TRUE),
      'page callback' => 'd6_node_edit',
      'page arguments' => array($name),
      'access callback' => 'd6_node',
      'access arguments' => array('node'),
      'type' => MENU_LOCAL_TASK,
);
  
return $items;

}

function d6_search(){
    return false;
}
function d6_guestbook(){
    return false;
}
function d6_user(){
    return false;
}
function d6_profile_access( $user ){
    return true;
}
function d6_user_get_profile( $user ){
    drupal_goto('user/'.$user->uid);
}
function d6_node(){
    return false;
}
?>

This would be a great module with a nice friendly UI by the way, anyone else agree?

Thanks again.
