Painful, but it would work. I'm looking for something a little more elegant. That, to me, is like using a butcher's knife where a scalpel is more appropriate. It's also harder to reconstruct for the inevitable rebuild.

I have added some products to my Plone and they have generated tabs and/or elements a user can add from the drop-down in their folder. I want to edit that behavior, but I don't know where to go to do that. I've tried the following: Unchecking "visible" in portal_controlpanel doesn't help. Unchecking "implicitly addable?" in portal_types doesn't help. Two weeks ago, Sean Fulmer suggested the following:
Add a condition or a permission to the associated 'portal_tabs' action
in the ZMI 'portal_actions' area.
I only found one of many there. Am I to add my own? Is there a how-to on how to do this? This is no trivial chore! Where else might the controls for this be hiding? Here's the one I found. It has the following: Condition: python:portal.portal_membership.checkPermission("Manage portal",here) Permission: View Yet anyone, not just the manager, can view this and even add one. Should I change the following as so and then make sure the permissions are properly set for the same? Permission: Add KZBannerAd Tools Confused and frustrated. Would appreciate help.
