[Drupal] How to hide the node view from a particular node type in Drupal
In Drupal function hook_menu_alter() allows you to alter various properties of menu items. In your custom module, simply add the function. MODULENAME_callback_function will check the node type and hide the node view and edit from a particular node type. Here for our nodetype the hook_menu_alter() will call the callback function MODULENAME_callback_function, which will not show the view and edit tabs for our nodetype in Drupal.
The following function helps to implement
function MODULENAME_menu_alter(&$items) {
// Set these tabs to callback function
$items['node/%node'] = "MODULENAME_callback_function";
}
function MODULENAME_callback_function($op, $node, $account=NULL) {
//code to hide the node view/edit link
if (($node->type == 'nodetype') && ($user->uid != 1)) {
return FALSE;
}
else {
return node_access($op, $node, $account);
}
}
We can also implement any required changes to node by following the same method.
