    I wont t create a very simple and clean post page, that will only contain a write option (just to enter ABC) and a category table.

    IS it POSSIBLE?? It;s for a site named “overheard in washington”, so it has to be very simple for every one to post ;).

    For whom that helps, “can’t thank you enough”

  • I don’t think it is possible. You can give people some privilege in order to moderate their writings or not. And then, you (administrator) edit manually each post when necessary.

    Sure it’s possible.

    If you look at the source of the write page, almost every one of those options is in a “fieldset” with it’s own ID… Pick the ID’s of the boxes you don’t want to see. For example, the “Discussion” box has an ID of “commentstatusdiv”.

    So open the wp-admin.css in a text editor. Add this to the bottom of the file:
    #commentstatusdiv * {
    display: none;
    }

    Save, and reload the Write page. Voila, the box is gone. Okay, so it left the handle behind, but the box itself is history. Repeat for everything you don’t want to see.

    BTW

    i want to remove the all “optional expert” section
    and leave only the write box and category table, is there a short way to do that? i find it very difficult to know what’s the name of every option, in the css file.

    Look at the source of the page to find what all the IDs of the various options are. In your browser -> View->Page Source.
