buttons apply, save & preview

Hello George,
I tried find the option to display the buttons at the bottom of the form but I have not found it.
Messing I managed to hide the tab "Basic" by overriding the file form.php as follows:
ROW 517
Code:
<!--<div class='fctabber fields_tabset' id='fcform_tabset_

However I have big problems to understand how to modify the form to my liking and override into Flexicontente. I would eliminate the word "Content Type: Caro estinto", insert the buttons also at bottom of page, hide the blue box of information, hide the field and its label "File esistente".
Unfortunately :( I do not have the appropriate knowledge and therefore I would be grateful if you tell me the right way about.
Have you a nice day

Hello

1. FLEXIcontent is for general usage for many different sites

2. FLEXIcontent is closely tightened to Joomla article system thus that is why some of these fields exist or are required, e.g. Hiding the basic tab which contains category selection will make the form to fail to save unless you have preselected some category in the menu properties

3. We have parameters to disable some of the features and shape the form, e.g. tags, e.g. use only 1 category (do not give users multi-categories permissions)

-- You are not supposed to modify the form directly unless you know you have good knowledge for PHP/programming, it is a complex form, you should rely on whatever is available via parameters

e.g. if you examine the form and have CSS knowledge you will see that you can hide first TAB using CSS only
Code:
#flexicontent ul.tabbernav > li:first-child { display: none !important; } #fcform_tabset_0_tab_0 { display: none; }

About the autopublish message you can set a custom text !! of your own !! so you don't need to tamper the form for this either
-- but if you really wish to use template override then find this code
Code:
// Autopublishing new item regardless of publish privilege, use a menu item specific // message if this is set, or notify user of autopublishing with a default message if ( $isnew && $this->params->get('autopublished') ) { $approval_msg = ... $approval_msg = ... $approval_msg = ... $approval_msg = ... } ...

and add
$approval_msg = '';
after the 4 $approval_msg = ...

but again you can avoid template override and set a custom message for autopublishing in menu parameters !!

Also helping you with such customizations is not possible due to our time restrictions (we can not provide this kind of customization support for free)

Remember some extensions do allow you to post bug-reports (not receive answers, you cannot post a bug report) unless you have bought a subscription

about buttons, just find the code that displays the buttons

and cut-paste at the end of the form,
makes some trials (undoing if you get it wrongly) and you will get it after a few tries, (e.g. button text to look is FLEXI_APPLY etc so it should be easy to locate the buttons block)

Regards

Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
