    • [SOLVED] How can I 'hide' the 'page action' button...

    Posted by Mike Finko posts: 228 Ukraine

    ...on just one page - the Homepage?

    ...or, on say 10 pages with 'Anonymous' permissions to 'view' (e.g. the front facing pages of a website)?

    I suspect the only way us 'Custom CSS' - would anyone with CSS knowledge be able to help out?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    This may work — use PluginLayout in the page with the actionbuttons parameter set to "n", like

    Copy to clipboard
    {layout header="y" footer="y" leftcolumn="y" rightcolumn="y" fullwidth="n" nosidemargins="n" bgrepeat="repeat" actionbuttons="n" topbar="y" pagetopbar="y" pagebottombar="y"}


    (This is the default content when only the actionbuttons parameter is changed.)

    Hi Gary,

    I should have provided a screenshot and been more specific - by 'page action' button I meant the single small square button on the top of each page on the right with a little down arrow in it:

    Screenshot From 2021 06 29 16 43 19

    The bottom page action buttons I typically hide by assigning (object level, e.g. page) permissions - but it's good to know that can be done by Page Layout also.

    Thanks,
    Mike

    There are probably better solutions, but using the Custom CSS field should work. Maybe:

    {QUOTE(thread_id=>77105)}...on just one page - the Homepage?

    Copy to clipboard
    {if $page eq 'Homepage'}
.wikiactions {display:none}
{/if}

    ...or, on say 10 pages with 'Anonymous' permissions to 'view' (e.g. the front facing pages of a website)?


    If this means you want to hide it from anonymous (i.e., non-logged in) users, you could use the GROUP plugin:

    Copy to clipboard
    {GROUP(notgroups="Registered")}
.wikiactions {display:none}
{GROUP}


    But Gary's solution is probably more elegant. :-)

    Hi Rick,

    This one worked:

    Copy to clipboard
    {if $page eq 'Homepage'}
.wikiactions {display:none}
{/if}


    only a little too good - it removed the page action button on all pages of the site! (tested on two separate sites, separate installations and hostings)

    I tried a few variations, just in case:
    - 'HomePage'
    - '/Homepage' (and '/HomePage')
    - and the full URL, starting with 'https...'
    - and, I tested with a 'test page' which was not the HomePage
    but none worked.

    Also, to make sure there wasn't any 'incorrectly coded' CSS in my 'Custom CSS' field, I removed everything there and just added this code, but same result.

    It seems something in Tiki is overriding the custom page configuration and applying it everywhere - Bootstrap?

    Thanks,
    Mike

    Ooopss, sorry. My mistake. You need to use the Custom HTML head content field — not Custom CSS, and my syntax was slightly off. See the note on the configuration page for correct syntax:

    Capture

    Sorry about that (it is still early here in EST and I haven't had enough coffee yet).

    Ok, will keep trying - only my site went down! https://agilitynocode.com/HomePage

    It's completely locked up, so I'll have to get into the Files, find and delete the code I added into the HTML head.

    That's what you get for listening to me, sorry!

    You can clear the custom HTML from the tiki-preferences table in your DB. Look for custom_html_head_content.

    Hi Rick,

    I found the file via phpMyAdmin and deleted the code. Though the site still didn't want to work. So I got on the Terminal via cPanel and cleared the cache there, the site started to come alive! At least I could log on and than re-build the index to look good again (Tiki doesn't play well with phpMyAdmin, always have to do an index rebuild after any changes there).

    So, now that I know where everything is and how to get it back up to normal, I can test and break it again! (though, maybe first I'll make some back-ups via the 'JetBackup' option in cPanel).

    Br,
    Mike

    Rick's Smarty code was close, but if it contains non-smarty curly brackets you need to surround it all in {literal} tags as in the examples under the pref, e.g.

    Copy to clipboard
    {if $page eq 'Homepage'}{literal}
.wikiactions {display:none}
{/literal}{/if}

    Or you can use plain Custom CSS (safer ;) and target just one page by using it's html.id, like this:

    Copy to clipboard
    #page_3804 .wikiactions {display:none}

    (this is the id of the HomePage here)

    Hi Jonny,

    I think I did try it with 'literal' tags (after I got my site going again) but don't think it worked still (most likely something else in my code that was incorrect, can't remember now).

    In any case, I opened the DOM 'Inspector', found the page number, number 1, applied the safer version in the Custom CSS area and it worked perfect!

    Huge thanks Jonny!

    Br,
    Mike
