Hi

I am trying to restrict field edit from list layout. I did this by writing list_edit acl on that field. So now, user cannot edit that field from list but when we select 'Update selected' from context menu, user can edit that field. 

How can i restrict editing of field from there as well?

I looked at these context menus and thought of restricting it through roles but that would restrict editing of all fields which i dont want. I want restriction of certain fields.

Hi Chenab,

 

That is expected as 'list_edit' works for the list layout while when Update All is being done it opens up a form view. As an alternative you can create a separate view that opens up when you click on Update All which does not show up the field itself when 'Update All' is clicked.

Hello,

Disable the Update All and Update Selected options by following these steps:

If using List v2

Disable Update All and Update Selected through UI context menus.

  1. Navigate to System UI > Context Menus.  
  2. Deactivate the Update All and Update Selected options. 

If using List v3

Disable List v3 and revert to List v2:

  1. Navigate to System Properties > List v3.
  2. Clear the Enable List v3 option.
  3. Clear List v2 Update All and Update Selected options as described above.

Please mark correct or helpful if this helps.

Thanks

Swapnil
