Hi Gulfam, 

That "Create an Idea" from Idea Portal it's not a record producer, it's a Widget called 'IM Create/Edit Idea'. If you want to change anything you can delete it from the the page or edit as a normal widget.

Also, the 'create and Idea' button contains a redirection so you can edit that for redirecting as you want.

Hi Adrian, 

Thank you for response, But i wanted to deactivate it for temporary purpose. 
Is there any way to deactivate it?

As a widget you can hide it using CSS but you'll need to clone it... so, if it's going to be temporary maybe this will work for you. Try to deactivate/activate the widget as required:

Go into idea portal > ctrl+right click on the widget > open page in designer > select the edit icon (pencil) over the widget > burger icon in the left upper corner > open in platform > activate/deactivate. If activate check doesn't appear put it out using form layout. With this your idea widget will not appear anytime you want without any change from OOTB widget.
