want to hide "post Idea" button in sites

Hi,

 

We have a ideas customer portal (just used standard functionality and no customizations) in sites, and we just dont want users to see the post idea button on the page. How can i hide that button from users? Any examples are appreciated.

 

Thanks

Drill down to your site public access settings and revoke the Create permission from ideas standard object.

Hi,

 

I did that already. We only have read permission enabled for ideas on our sites.  Any clue?

 

Thanks

of course, sites doesn't give create access on ideas object anyway. I sent a note to Ideas PM, he'll respond.

Hi there,

 

If I recall correctly, you want to still give people CR so they can vote and comment, just prevent them from posting ideas right?

 

I think the only way to do it is go through the css and make that button invisible.

 

I would recommend using something like firebug http://getfirebug.com/ in order to identify the actual css element that shows the post button, and then do a 

 

.cssForThePostButton {

display:none;

}

 

for whatever the class is for the post button.

nori_ideasnori_ideas

(you would want to include the above code in the header portion of the customer portal)
