Hide a page in a new button (Hide an option from the new button drop down)

Dear Jana,

The same questions were asked on the community previously, and you can find those questions here, here, here, and here. Please refer to those articles so to be able to hide a button.



And 

There were a couple of  similar requests on our community. You can find the solutions here:

Hi Orkhan,

I referred to all the articles that you have shared above. In fact, the question I raised is similar to the below article.

https://community.creatio.com/questions/how-hide-page-new-button

But seems like, the shared community articles are irrelevant to what we raised. Those articles describe hiding the new button itself. But the requirement for us is to keep the new button and just hide one or more pages from the new button drop-down when there are more pages in that particular section. Kindly double-check and help us resolve this issue.

Thank you

Geeviniy.

Hello,

Here is a fast and working example: in the section schema you need to create a replacement of the SeparateModeAddRecordButton element in the diff:

define("OrderSectionV2", [], function() {
	return {
		entitySchemaName: "Order",
		details: /**SCHEMA_DETAILS*/{}/**SCHEMA_DETAILS*/,
		diff: /**SCHEMA_DIFF*/[
			{
				"operation": "merge",
				"name": "SeparateModeAddRecordButton",
				"parentName": "SeparateModeActionButtonsLeftContainer",
				"propertyName": "items",
				"values": {
					"controlConfig": {
						"menu": {
							"items": {
								"bindTo": "EditPages",
								"bindConfig": {
									"converter": function(editPages) {
										if (editPages.getCount() > 1) {
											var valueToRemove;
											for (var i = 0; i < editPages.getCount(); i++) {
												if (editPages.getItems()[i].values.Caption == "Website") {
													valueToRemove  = i;
												}
											}
											if (valueToRemove || valueToRemove == 0) {
												editPages.removeByIndex(valueToRemove);
											}
											return editPages;
										} else {
											return null;
										}
									}
								}
							}
						}
					}
				}
			},
		]/**SCHEMA_DIFF*/,
		methods: {}
	};
});

You only need tp modify the "Website" in the code with the caption of the edit page you need to remove from the "New" option. After that refresh the page and the menu item will be removed. Debug the execution of the example above and add your own logic if needed.

Hi Oleg,

This works like a charm. Thank you very much for the solution.

I have also added a code snippet, just in case if anybody needs to remove multiple pages from the dropdown of the new button,

{
				"operation": "merge",
				"name": "SeparateModeAddRecordButton",
				"parentName": "SeparateModeActionButtonsLeftContainer",
				"propertyName": "items",
				"values": {
					"controlConfig": {
						"menu": {
							"items": {
								"bindTo": "EditPages",
								"bindConfig": {
									"converter": function(editPages) {
										if (editPages.getCount() > 1) {
											var valuesToRemove = [];
											for (var i = 0; i < editPages.getCount(); i++) {
												var caption = editPages.getItems()[i].values.Caption;
												if (caption === "Returned Mail" || caption === "Default" || caption === "Posting Restriction" || caption === "KYC Review") {
													valuesToRemove.push(i);
												}
											}
											for (var j = valuesToRemove.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
												editPages.removeByIndex(valuesToRemove[j]);
											}
											return editPages;
										} else {
											return null;
										}
									}
								}
							}
						}
					}
				}
			},

We only need to modify the captions according to our requirements.

Thank you

Hi Oleg,

Quick clarification. Can we disable the options in the new button drop-down? (Make it not clickable, but it should be visible)
