Hide "Edit" button in Userview Datalist

Confluence User - 31 Mar, 2020

Hi, I can't seem to find this on the forum. By clicking the "Edit" button beside the datalist in the userview, I'd like to have the system to bring the form up in a popup window instead of the "current window" style, is there a way to do it?

I could add a hyperlink to do it but then I need to hide the default "Edit" button, how to do that?

Thank you.

In the list editor you can make your own link for that. There, just choose "popup dialog" from the "Hyperlink Target" list. It is recommended that, in the userview, make a link to the edit form and assign it a custom URL. From the list, your link assigns that url as the destination, sending the parameter ID. I leave a reference image.

thank you for your reply. However I still need to "hide" the "Edit" button, otherwise I will have two "Edit" buttons that essential do the same thing, how do I hide the one from the system?

Thank you. However I think there is a difference between what you are describing vs what I am referring to. Please see this picture that I uploaded. The link on the right, "SOW" is in place for what your are referring to above. The link "Edit" is from the system which I want to hide.


Does it make sense?

Hello, I understand that you are using the list from a CRUD component. I'm not sure I can hide the EDIT link from the CRUD component. What you could do is publish the list as such and not from a CRUD so that it is only visible in the "SOW" link. However, a little work would have to be done on the functionality and masking of the "New" button and the DELETE button service that the CRUD does offer.

Was the EDIT link made from the list functional?

Hi, the "Edit" button was functional as normal. Thank you.

Hi BG,

I don't think the system has option to hide "edit" button in CRUD component. Camilo is suggest that you use Basic List instead of CRUD. Basic list as in "List" in Basic section

You need to add "New" and "Delete" function with a little work (add those 2 buttons in you list design page).

Artit, thank you for your clarification. I missed the difference between "List" and CRUD. By using the List, it meets my need. Thank you.
