Hello,

I have a module with a series of controls and on some of them, it's annoying having the "Manage" button floating over them. Many of the users on the page where the module will be would have edit access.

So, does anybody know if it's possible to, at the control level, disable the "Manage" button - even temporarily?

Thanks,

Mike

I agree the Manage button is obtrusive and hated it since it got introduced.
See http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Resources/Forums/forumid/109/threadid/425125/scope/posts.aspx

The simplicity of the DNN 5 and below downward arrow was beautiful.  Adding the manage button really cramped up the aesthetics of all of my sites...  To restore similar to the old functionality... use the MinimalExtropy containers plus 


1. Add this to your skin.css file:

.dnnActionMenu{margin:0;padding:0;position:absolute;float:left;z-index:906;color:#000;left:-10px;top:10px;width:480px;}
.dnnActionMenuTag{background:#FFFFFF;background:-moz-linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF 0%, #FFFFFF 0%);
   background:-webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#FFFFFF), color-stop(0%,#FFFFFF));
   filter:Alpha(Opacity=0);
   display:block;padding:0px 0px;border:0px #FFFFFF solid;border-radius:0px;-moz-border-radius:0px;line-height:16px;height:16px;font-weight:bold;font-size:11px;min-width:65px;cursor:default;}
    .dnnActionMenuTag img{display:block;float:left;padding-right:0px;}
    .dnnActionMenuTag span{visibility:hidden}

2. Replace images/manage-icn.png with manage-icn.png at http://www.freeimagehosting.net/42ead

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

I don't know though - editing it in the skin seems like a blunt instrument. Even if I did it in the module's css file, it would take it away from all module controls, which I don't really want.

I think it would work to just programmatically put the page into "view" mode rather than "Edit" mode. Anybody have any idea how to do that?

Thanks,

Mike

Hello,

Browsing around in the source code, I found a way to do it - it seems a little messy, but it's a copy of what the framework is using...

Public Sub SetUserMode(ByVal Mode As String)
            DotNetNuke.Services.Personalization.Personalization.SetProfile("Usability", "UserMode" + PortalSettings.PortalId.ToString, Mode.ToUpper)
End Sub

Hope all's well,

Mike

You could also put it in the head of that particular page... and put the manage-icn.png someplace else or just use the standard manage-png (pencil icon)

(Under advanced settings... put this in the head)


<style type="text/css">

.dnnActionMenu{margin:0;padding:0;position:absolute;float:left;z-index:906;color:#000;left:-8px;top:6px}
.dnnActionMenuTag{background:#FFFFFF;background:-moz-linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF 0%, #FFFFFF 0%);
   background:-webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#FFFFFF), color-stop(0%,#FFFFFF));
   filter:Alpha(Opacity=0);
   display:block;padding:0px 0px;border:none;border-radius:0px;-moz-border-radius:0px;line-height:10px;height:10px;width:10px;font-weight:bold;font-size:8px;min-width:10px;cursor:default;}
    .dnnActionMenuTag img{display:block;float:left;padding-right:0px;}
    .dnnActionMenuTag span{visibility:hidden} 

#dnn_dnnSearch_ClassicSearch {position:relative; top:-1px;}
#dnn_dnnSearch_txtSearch {height:10px; width:110px;}

</style>
