disable post/page field through plugin or theme?

  • I am trying to figure out if there is a way to disable a particular part of the post/page editor. Lets say i want to hide or just disable (aka, no edit) the Discussion field or maybe the Excerpt field, etc. Any ideas how i might do this? I want to do itthrough code, obviously i know i can just minimize those fields, but i am looking for more control than that.

  • add_action( 'do_meta_boxes', 'macscr_remove_meta_boxes' );

function macscr_remove_meta_boxes( $post_type ) {
	if ( 'post' == $post_type )
		remove_meta_box( 'commentstatusdiv', $post_type, 'normal' );

	if ( 'page' == $post_type )
		remove_meta_box( 'postexcerpt', $post_type, 'normal' );
}

    It’s basically the reverse of add_meta_box().
