[Plugin: Front-end Editor] Disable on specific pages?

Try the development version (2.0-alpha3). It should not interfere with form controls anymore.

I need the exact same thing — there’s one page that FEE is allowing admins to edit from the front end that’s causing problems, but I can’t figure out how to defeat FEE on only that specific page. I followed the link above to the development version but it seems to lead to the public release version…any ideas?

I hope you mean disable. “Defeat” sounds so confrontational. ??

Just place this code in your theme’s functions.php:

function fee_disable( $allow, $args ) {
	$disabled_post_ids = array( 101, 102 );

	return $allow && !in_array( $args['post_id'], $disabled_post_ids );
}
add_filter('front_end_editor_allow_post', 'fee_disable', 10, 2);

Of course, you have to replace 101, 102 with your own post id(s).

Thank you so much Scribu! I’ll test that later today.

I’m having a similar problem I think, I keep getting this error: Warning: Missing argument 2 for FEE_Field_Category::wrap() in filepath…etc.

But it only happens on a few pages, all of which are using the TDO Mini Forms plugin to display a form. I’m sure that’s the problem and simply want to disable front end editing on those pages. I added the code posted above to my functions file, but it doesn’t do anything. Do I need to add an add_action or somehow call the function to make it work? If so, where and what variables am I passing in?

Thanks!

Okay, found another way to do what I want. I found this post on the plugin website: https://scribu.net/wordpress/front-end-editor/loading-only-on-certain-pages.html

Made a slight modification to the code given there and it works great for my purposes:

function front_editor_disable() {
if ( is_page() )
return true;
}
add_filter(‘front_end_editor_disable’, ‘front_editor_disable’);

Since all the problem areas of my site are pages rather than posts. Would still love be able to pick specific posts / pages, but this works fine for me for now. Thanks!

close, this one works for me with the latest version like a charm:

function front_editor_disable() {
if ( is_page(*pageid*) )
return true;
}
add_filter(‘front_end_editor_disable’, ‘front_editor_disable’);

or can you use a custom field to fill in the page id?
best regards!

or can you use a custom field to fill in the page id?

You can do something like this:

Disable Front-end Editor if the current page has a ‘fee_disable’ custom field:

function front_editor_disable() {
  global $wp_query;

  if ( is_page() && get_post_meta($wp_query->posts[0]->ID, 'fee_disable', true) )
    return true;
}
add_filter('front_end_editor_disable', 'front_editor_disable');

thanky you scribu – this is awesome!

this snippet works for posts too:

function front_editor_disable() {
global $wp_query;
if ( is_page() && get_post_meta($wp_query->posts[0]->ID, 'fee_disable', true) )
return true;
if ( is_single() && get_post_meta($wp_query->posts[0]->ID, 'fee_disable', true) )
return true;
}
add_filter('front_end_editor_disable', 'front_editor_disable');

whenever the custom field is “true” no editing is possible.
