Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
I’m not too concerned about seeing fields I dont use, if ‘hiding’ them means the space they use remains.
So, if you hide a field does it modify the admin interface so it adjusts nicely the way everything is arranged? Or is the field literally just hidden, and the space it uses just becomes unaltered white space?
If its the latter….I reckon txp needs a plug in that allows you to fully modify the admin interface in terms of display fields, text are size and overall arrangement.

I, for one, would like to know when you get this working so that it doesn’t reformat the text in the article body.

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
OK so it does ‘re-arrange’ the interface, not just replace the locations with white space. Pretty nice.
However I’m getting the same text area format erros as everyone else – and it took me while to diagnose this, messing with my article text to re-format it correctly etc etc.
If the pre-0.3 versions dont have this error I’d like to use them…..but you cant get them form your url.

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
I’ve just tracked down the same error I was having to this plugin. I can see why it’s happening – because the page is rendered and then the CSS display property is updated afterwards by adding inline styles, the browser tries its best to re-arrange the words in the Body textarea but gets it a bit wrong.
I don’t think that having id’s added to the TxP code would change that happening, either – you’d just be replacing one type of style with another. Any Javascript-related solution is going to suffer from the same problem.
Commenting out those fields isn’t hard though – they’re in include/txp_article.php, around line 396 (where it starts “//— textile help ———————”).

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
Unfortunately, I accidentally deleted this from my server, and don’t have any backup copies.
I’ve also stopped using/supporting it, so if anyone has a copy, wants to make it available, and support it, feel free…

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
Hopefully somebody takes over continuing with this plugin and repairs it.
It would be really nice addition, ability to offer clean writing interface when not all option are needed.
I have also an additional request. Since using often automated excerpt or no exerpts at all, it would be nice to have also an option to turn exerpt field on/of.
I have an copy of plugin, version waz_admin_hide_fields 0.3, if somebody needs it, email me.

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
P,
If this thread peters out, perhaps you would be willing to post the hope of someone developing this plugin further as a “plugin request”? I agree that this would be helpful, atleast until some of the “Rights and Permissions” issues get worked out in which case these kinds of options could become superfluous.

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
I got two emails about people asking posting this plugin to them but neither one of them did answer, were they thinking of repairing the plugin. As it is now since breaking and re-arraging text formatting badly, very difficult to imagine that anybody would just use the plugin. Yes, guess I should post a request about this plugin.

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
Did this work in textpattern 4.05? Could somebody explain how to hide “section” from the “Write Article” page?
Thanks

Re: [archived] waz_admin_hide_fields
Maybe you better use ied_hide_in_admin which works in 4.05
