Is there a way to disable the ability to edit content through the front-end interface? I only want the admin's to be able to edit content through the back-end.

Thanks,
Shannon

About the only way I know of is a hack to the content.html.php file. There maybe a component, such as JACL-plus that may give you the control you're looking for. I haven't used it myself, so not sure if it has the capability you're after.

My quick hack is If you go to line 631 of content.html.php and remove the following, the edit icon will no longer appear in the Front-end. After removing the link, no one should get the edit icon in the front-end. Thus not allowing them to edit any content items. It's a dirty hack, but works. Was tested at all group levels, Author, Editor, Publisher...so on and so forth. HTH!

*- As always...make sure you backup your copy, just in case something should go south on you.

joomla_root/components/com_content/content.html.php

<td class="contentheading<?php echo $params->get( 'pageclass_sfx' ); ?>" width="100%">
<?php echo $row->title;?>
<?php HTML_content::EditIcon( $row, $params, $access ); ?> <-- remove this line
</td>

I ended up editing lines 88-90, 293-295, 490-493, 627, 634, and 641.

That removed all edit icons and new items icons from the front-end.

Thanks,
Shannon

just wondering whether commenting out the following lines in includes/gacl.class.php would do the trick?


Code:
// actions
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'add', 'users', 'author', 'content', 'all' );
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'add', 'users', 'editor', 'content', 'all' );
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'add', 'users', 'publisher', 'content', 'all' );
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'edit', 'users', 'author', 'content', 'own' );
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'edit', 'users', 'editor', 'content', 'all' );
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'edit', 'users', 'publisher', 'content', 'all' );
#
$this->_mos_add_acl( 'action', 'publish', 'users', 'publisher', 'content', 'all' );

The hack above doesn't work for me. I think the file structure may have changed in 1.5. I still can't find any config option to handle this, but there is a CSS hack I use. So far, it seems to work fine. Open the template.css file for your template and add this:

table.contentpaneopen tr td span.hasTip a img {
display: none;
}

That effectively hides the Article Edit icon. It might inadvertently hide something important, but the tag chain seems to be pretty unique.

Sometimes you don't see the wood for the trees! I was looking for a way to do this myself and the head was in coding mode so I started to hack... never even thought about a simple CSS display:none!!!

Great idea, thanks, saved me hours of heartache!

To make this change in Joomla 1.5, you can comment out the icon code in the view files. Find and edit the following files.

joomla_root/components/com_content/views/article/tmp/default.php
joomla_root/components/com_content/views/category/tmp/default.php

Find
Code:
<?php echo JHTML::_('icon.edit', $this->article, $this->params, $this->access); ?>


Change to
Code:
<?php //echo JHTML::_('icon.edit', $this->article, $this->params, $this->access); ?>


---

joomla_root/components/com_content/views/category/tmp/default_items.php

Find
Code:
<?php $this->item = $item; echo JHTML::_('icon.edit', $item, $this->params, $this->access) ?>


Change to
Code:
<?php $this->item = $item; //echo JHTML::_('icon.edit', $item, $this->params, $this->access) ?>


---

joomla_root/components/com_content/views/frontpage/tmp/default_item.php
joomla_root/components/com_content/views/section/tmp/blog_item.php

Find
Code:
<?php echo JHTML::_('icon.edit', $this->item, $this->item->params, $this->access); ?>


Change to
Code:
<?php //echo JHTML::_('icon.edit', $this->item, $this->item->params, $this->access); ?>


This can also be done using template overrides http://developer.joomla.org/tutorials/165-understanding-output-overrides-in-joomla.html. This would be the best way because you will not lose these mods when upgrading Joomla.

I know this is quite an old thread but I had the same issue with J 1.5.10 on IE 7. The problem was a Twitter script I put in a module that allows my threads there to show. I unpublished this and everything works fine. FYI

I've just come across this same problem with the Author permission. Surely this is a bug that needs to be fixed? What's the point in requiring approval for Author articles if Authors can simply edit their articles after they have been approved and type in anything they want?! There is no logic to this setup in my opinion.

I know there are hacks to get around this, but this shouldn't be required for such a basic thing. Until this gets fixed, I think the best (but awkward) thing to do is for admins to change the author of the article before publishing.

Since this may hide something important, I suggest using the following. It will only hide the edit image that matched the other criteria.

table.contentpaneopen td.buttonheading span.hasTip a img[src="/images/M_images/edit.png"] { display:none;}

Hi,
FOR J1.5 ONLY!!
I have completed the mission: you can don't delete the edit button, but only
restrict rights of "non-author" for editing (for example, of "editors").
So, only author of an article and >= Publisher see the button.

Here is the change of codes in file:

Code:
[Joomla base path]/components/com_content/helpers/icon.php


After the lines:
Code:
   if (!$access->canEdit && !($access->canEditOwn && $article->created_by == $user->get('id'))) {
         return;
      }
add these lines:
Code:
if ($article->created_by != $user->get('id') && ($user->usertype == "Editor")) {
         return;
      }
Gruß. :)

\components\com_content\helpers\icon.php

$icon = $article->state ? 'edit.png' : 'edit_unpublished.png';
$text = JHTML::_('image.site', $icon, '/images/M_images/', NULL, NULL, JText::_('Edit'));

If you want to restrict the icon to only certain sections.... you could do something like this (which is what I did so editors could front-end edit one section, but not sections I created for different reasons):

if ($article->sectionid == 1) {
$icon = $article->state ? 'edit.png' : 'edit_unpublished.png';
$text = JHTML::_('image.site', $icon, '/images/M_images/', NULL, NULL, JText::_('Edit'));
}

\components\com_content\helpers\icon.php

//$icon = $article->state ? 'edit.png' : 'edit_unpublished.png'; line 110
//$text = JHTML::_('image.site', $icon, '/images/M_images/', NULL, NULL, JText::_('Edit')); line 111

//$text = JHTML::_('image.site', 'new.png', '/images/M_images/', NULL, NULL, JText::_('New') ); line 36

works fine but the gap between where the icon used to appear is still there. is it the end of the world, I'm not sure.

Many thanks for your help.

To disable editing on the Frontpage in Joomla 1.5.11, all I had to do was change:

Code:
$access->canEdit   = $user->authorize('com_content', 'edit', 'content', 'all');
$access->canEditOwn   = $user->authorize('com_content', 'edit', 'content', 'own');

(Lines 64-65)

To:
Code:
$access->canEdit   = $user->authorize('com_content', 'edit', 'content', 'none');
$access->canEditOwn   = $user->authorize('com_content', 'edit', 'content', 'none');

(Lines 64-65)

In the following file:
Code:
<joomla install>\components\com_content\views\frontpage\view.html.php

that also solved my problem although I had to do the same in the <joomla install>\components\com_content\views\article\view.html.php file as well

Hello!

It's not enough to add in css:
table.contentpaneopen tr td span.hasTip a img {
display: none;
}

It helpes to hide an "Edit" icon, but you are making a backdoor for edition.
If you are open the page source, you can find a link for editing your content.

Everybody can use it to edit your site illegally.

You rock! Using Joomla! 1.5.17 Stable and this totally did the job. In my particular case, I'm developing a brand new site which I very much want to keep offline, but when previewing, those edit article icons were everywhere, which would matter if they didn't affect the layout!

I can't seem to get the front-end edit icons to show up!

Been scouring the net trying to find out how to enable this capability.

I have users in the publisher group, but no icons show up for them. I've turned on everything I could find in the back-end to try to enable the icons, but I must be missing a crucial click somewhere. Can anyone provide a clue to help me?
