Hide theme option from non-admin users

[suffusionner]

Hello,

I'd like to hide the theme option from users, but I don't see how! I tried some plugins but additional options are still there!
This is just to avoid non-admins play with theme options.

Any idea?
Thanks

If you start to using a child theme with the starter kit provided by Sayontan: http://aquoid.com/news/2012/02/suffu-sc ... suffusion/ you will find in functions.php of the child theme the filter you need.

Hi Drake,

I downloaded the child theme and found descriptions of what we can do but it doesn't said how we can do it!
There is:

Code: Select all

function suffu_scion_theme_setup() {
   // If you want to disable the "Additional Options for Suffusion" box:
   // remove_theme_support('suffusion-additional-options');

This exactly what I want to do but how?
This is the question...

Thank you very much if you have any guideline.

By paying someone who knows WordPress?

It's simple, just un-comment the filter (delete the backslashes before remove_theme_support). Your new function will look:

Code: Select all

function suffu_scion_theme_setup() {
   // If you want to disable the "Additional Options for Suffusion" box:
   remove_theme_support('suffusion-additional-options');

Save

Don't make any other change, don't press space or enter key when you are in the file.

(tonight I will try to make some time for replying to your question about the pages/categories/menu)

If suffusion makes me a rich man, I'll remind of you, be sure !

Cool! but this removed it from all accounts, including admin account!
I just would like to remove it only for non-admin, not for admin.

I appreciate your help, Drake. You are the king of Suffusion !

In functions.php change the whole block edited above with this one:

Code: Select all

function suffu_scion_theme_setup() {
   // If you want to disable the "Additional Options for Suffusion" box:
if( !current_user_can('administrator') ) {
    // true if user is not admin
   remove_theme_support('suffusion-additional-options');
}

Thanks Drake,
This didn' work, unfortunately.
Well, if leave it removed from admin account, will this affect SEO?

Thanks

How can affect the backend of your site SEO? If I visit your site I can see only the frontend. Crawlers will see only the frontend too and this is the natural behavior.

But for sure you made some mistake when you add the code. It works for sure, I tested this on one of my sites.

Thanks Drake.
Actually, I meant that given the additional options offer the possibility to provide SEO terms (to improve SEO), if I remove this option from Suffusion, will this affect the SEO performance?
This was my wondering.
