How to hide Edit | View tabs?

Question

Can I hide the

Edit | View

tabs on top of each node ?

I've searched for this option in theme settings (both global and standard theme but I couldn't find it).

I still want to be able my customer to edit / administer content, so I cannot just remove the permission for it.

thanks

here is a very easy solution for you. (Drupal 7)

• Open your page.tpl.php in your current template and search for the $tabs variable.

• Remove the render code if you want to hide it completely.

• If you want to display it only to administrators use this code

  <?php if ($tabs and $is_admin): ?>
  <div class="tabs">
    <?php print render($tabs); ?>
  </div>
  

  The above code checks if the user is administrator. If it is it will render the tabs. If not it wont render them.
