agressive frontend display

Not only that, but you can’t shut it off!

When you attempt to save the settings which would disable this “feature” I get the following message (on multiple websites)

Saving failed. Please reload the page and try again.

I agree. I am getting complaints similar to “What is this error on my Events editor?”. Horrible idea, y’all

Thank you for your valuable feedback.

Types is a free Plugin and you can remove that Front End Display box either with the Check under “Screen Options” or via filter:

@jkuzma your issue is not related to this Topic.
You can not disable the Front End Display Box with a Setting in Toolset.

This what you are mentioning is a BUG that happens only on instals that use Types only.
The solution is to find here:

I have raised your all concerns to our Developers.

Thanks Beda, but the Screen Options field only removes the front end display for that session/post. As soon as I go to another post/page or if I login again later, it forcibly shows up again.

Yes, this is the WordPress behavior for Screen Options.

As I above elaborated, there is also the Filter that you can use, and we are eventually implementing a Setting in the Settings Screen to disable that Box, in a Future Types Version.

This are the only possible ways to disable the box by now.

Would just like to add another voice to this. While the “front-end display” box may be helpful to me, as the person developing the design/architecture of my clients’ sites, it’s confusing and cluttering to the majority of the people creating content within the sites I maintain. Someone else mentioned an influx of “I’m getting an error message when I create content” emails–that’s true, and I can’t explain to many of them why in some cases there will always be an “error” message there even though there’s nothing wrong with the site.

Many of my sites use a great many custom types managed by Toolset; telling clients that they need to turn it off manually for each type (and sometimes each session) isn’t a solution.

Consider this a strong vote for an option to turn it off within the GUI…

The DEV team will provide a Setting for this in Toolset Settings menu soon.

thx for the reply ! That is great !

That’s fantastic. Thanks for the follow-up.

Solved with Types 2.1
