Hello Zeosing,

Edit the file /media/com_easysocial/apps/user/blog/themes/default/dashboard/default.php and remove the codes below at line 18:



<a class="btn btn-es-primary btn-sm pull-right" href="<?php echo EasyBlogRouter::_( 'index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=dashboard&layout=write');?>"><?php echo JText::_( 'APP_USER_BLOG_NEW_POST_BUTTON' ); ?></a>

Ok, Mark, this option is our first option, we think that we miss some configuration param to disable it in app parametres , but no matter we remove it .

Thanks for all

Hi,
I just had a client complain someone unauthorised has been adding blog posts to their site. This is a huge security hole and anyone with the knowledge of the url index.php?option=com_easyblog&view=dashboard&layout=write can add blog posts from the front-end on sites that don't want to allow this, I tried this and my post even got autopublished (!). It would be great if you could implement the option to disable front-end posting or limit it to super-users asap.
Thanks,
Michael

Hello Michael,

This only happens if you have the access to post and publish posts. Not everyone can do this unless you gave them the rights to do so. Go to the ACL section at the back end of EasyBlog and configure the rules there
