Hi Simon,

I'm not sure you'll want to hide the settings tab as without it there is no way to get to the Account Settings section of the calendar, but if you'd already entered your license--and you remember how to undo what follows--maybe that's ok.

Add the following near the bottom of DayBack's CSS file, right above the line "/* !-- Additions Block Do Not Remove - More Classes --> */"

Code: Select all
.dbk_sidebar .settings, .dbk_sidebar .calendars {
display: none;
}
.tabButtonContainer button.filters, .tabButtonContainer button.filters {
    width: 258px;
}


For those following along at home, more on editing CSS can be found here: http://www.seedcode.com/pmwiki/index.ph ... eMaker.CSS

Thanks John.

My problem in showing the settings tab is the button Account Setting. I do not want any casual users to access update & documentation. If I were to keep the settings tab, is there a way for me to hide the Account Setting button if users do not have the access privileges ?

Yes, you can easily hide the Administrator Settings button for individual users or by access roles. In the script "Load Calendar Settings - On Startup --- Edit Configuration Here ---" you'll find a comment "Show Admin Settings". The variable following that determines if the admin settings button shows up or not: simply wrap that variable in an if() that checks Get ( CurrentPrivilegeSetName )

=)
