Hello and Happy New Year for you all,
Is there a way I can hide the "Edit this View" and "Edit this Content Template" mentions for Editors and Administrators alike in Views ?

Thank you,
Best,
Stephen

Dear Stephen,

This link is displayed to users that can 'Manage Options', like administrators. Editors should not be seeing this link at all. However, try adding these lines to functions.php to remove them:

add_filter('init', 'remove_edit_links', 100);
function remove_edit_links() {
remove_all_filters('edit_post_link');
}

Please let me know if there is anything else that I can assist you with.

Regards,
Caridad

Thanks Caridad,

The link is hidden on Posts.
But the link still appears on the Pages.

Thanks,
S.

Caridad,
I will send the link to the website to your private email address. Do not disclose please.

Dear Stephen,

As far as I can see, the links that we still need to remove are the widget links, but there is not filter to remove them like with the others. A workaround is to detect the text when its being translated and removing it there. I added these lines to the ones above and its working:

add_filter('gettext', 'remove_widget_links', 100, 3);
function remove_widget_links($translated, $text, $domain) {
if ($text == 'Edit view') return '';
return $translated;
}

Please let me know if there is anything else that I can assist you with.

Thanks Caridad,
It works fine and I will definitely add this code snippet to my standard library!
Best,
Stephen

This link is being displayed to Editors in Views 1.2.1, when a View is embedded on a Page. Is this a bug?
