Forum:How to hide Createarticle link for particular wiki

I would like to hide and disable "creating a new article" when unregistered user browsing my wiki. It can be enabled after logged-in. How can I do this. Kindly help me. -- Adiraixpress 07:34, April 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * With CSS, it is impossible to disable only for unregistered users. It might be possible with javascript, but you'd have to ask someone else to help you with that. If you want to disable it for all editors, logged in or logged out, then put  into Common.css. However, I don't recommend doing this - what's wrong with unregistered users being able to create articles? Wikis are supposed to be freely editable after all, and page creation is a very important part of that. :)  The 888th Avatar   (talk)  10:28, April 24, 2010 (UTC)


 * I thought there was a way to prevent unregistered users from creating articles (redirects to create account/login page), but you still have to allow them to click the create article button. It may require Special:Contact, though. -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 10:19 PM PST 26 Apr 2010


 * There is, but it's discouraged and cannot be done without contacting staff. The 888th Avatar   (talk)  23:14, April 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * Is it discouraged or just not openly documented? -- Fandyllic  (talk &middot; contr) 5:02 AM PST 27 Apr 2010


 * Probably both because it goes against wikia fundamental principle of OPEN editing of wikia sites. The sites that have a 'Registered user only' policy are (I beleive mainly) ones that have moved to wikia from been hosted by other services. If you want a 'closed' wiki find another hosting service is the solution. (IMO) - BulldozerD11 11:59, April 27, 2010 (UTC)
