How to hide "edit" button from specific users?

Loren Reich August 27, 2015

Hi,


I was able to hide "edit" button from all users and allow it only to space admin. 

Is there a way to hide "edit" button from specific users? 

Or display it to only specific users?

 

Thanks

I know this is an old question, but I was looking for the same solution and found this: How do I hide the "Edit" / "Edit Contents" button?

Change the permissions to only allow people who should edit the page the right to edit.

Also, have a look at page restrictions.

Hi Nic,

Thank you for your fast response. 

This actually I know smile

I forgot to mention that I am using a plug-in that adds a button of "Edit Contents". 

I would like that this will be the only button the users can use when they like to edit the page. 

If I use the solution you suggested the "Edit Contents" button is disabled as well. 

 

Hope that's clears out my question. 

 

Thanks again,

Loren

Yes, it's a completely different case. I'd remove the plugin frankly, it doesn't sound like it's adding any value.

well actually this plug-in is very helpful. it allows me to create a wiki page that consist with fields the user can fill. Perhaps you herd of it- Scaffolding (Service Rocket)?

Yes, I have, and it is useful. There's no benefits in hiding the real edit button though.
