Grav-plugin-admin: Hide some templates in Admin Panel

[tilb]

Is there a way to hide certain templates in the Admin Panel? When the user wants to add a new page, she needs to pick a template. There are quite some templates she never needs to pick, so I was wondering if I could improve the UX by hiding these. Is this possible?

Hi there,

I have this done on my local version. I will make it into a PR and I'll create a plugin for it.
I have added two new events: 'onAdminPageTypes' and 'onAdminModularPageTypes', the types are passed as reference so you can do whatever you want with it, thus filtering in this case.

@rhukster Any idea for the event names or they will be fine?

I was wondering about this very thing. The Gantry plugin adds a few templates that I love, but sometimes want to hide. I was thinking about creating the same template name in my /custom directory. Then, we could add a special tag (not sure what) to tell the Admin panel to not display it in the dropdown.

This probably have something to do with this two options in admin:

Sadly I can't make this options work. (I've try with page folder_name/title/slug/template)

Hi @david-szabo97

I'm trying to hide some pages from admin page list.

Thanks :)

@jimblue

You misunderstood the functionality of my PR.
This configuration hides page templates, not pages from the page list.

@Al-Demon
You just need to open the Admin's plugin configuration. You will find it at the end.
See this comment: https://github.com/getgrav/grav-plugin-admin/issues/1020#issuecomment-375349973

[Al-Demon]

thanks a lot... now I found it... In admin/plugins/admin panel ...

@rhukster

Can we close this issue?
It's implemented via #1105

The admin-panel settings that allow to hide templates only works for the modal related to the main "Add Page" button of the admin-panel. However, the page templates are still visible in the "Advanced" tab "Page Template" field. Was this considered and deliberately omitted from the hide function?

[bobbwal]

This doesn't seem to work for me. It doesn't do anything, unless I'm misunderstanding.

[khovansky-al]

@bobbwal you have to start with a lowercase letter for it to work

My theme extends Quark theme. No trouble hiding page templates, but hiding modular page templates created by Quark doesn't seem to work.
Any help is much appreciated!
