How to suppress the Edit buttons for the list of Users Events (front end)

I need to suppress on the front end, when listing events, the button for Edit.

I tried to create an override based on instructions here: eventbookingdoc.joomservices.com/develop...stomization-override

I did the following:
- created the override folder in the /components/com_eventbooking/helper directory and copied the acl.php file into it.
- created the class EventbookingHelperOverrideAcl extends EventbookingHelperAcl
- copied the code for public static function canEditEvent($event) and changed the return true to return false.

Saved and tested - but the Edit button still appears.

What am I missing? Is the acl.php file not able to be overridden? Where can I find the code to suppress showing the button?

Thank you for any help.

I realize this should be in Custom Overrides section. Moving it to www.joomdonation.com/forum/events-bookin...vents-front-end.html

Hello Judy

Unfortunately, not all help methods can be overridden, and the one you are working on cannot.

I want to add why you want to remove that button? It's only shown to user with right permission (super admin and for event owner), so I don't think you have to remove it

The administrator of the website prefers to keep the Event creation away from the event owners because of problems in the past.

As it turns out, I was able to suppress the Edit button with a template override in the /components/com_eventbooking/themes/default/events/default.php file. The override file is saved as template/{templatename}/html/com_eventbooking/events/default.php

OK Judy. That's correct way. Maybe you can share your modified file here in case someone needs it?

Sure - It is a 1 line change (around line 67) to remove/comment out the following code to remove the Edit button from appearing on the “Your Events” (Users Events menu item) page for the event owner/coordinator:

<a class="btn" href="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_eventbooking&view=event&layout=form&id=' . $row->id . '&Itemid=' . $this->Itemid . '&return=' . $this->return); ?>"><i class="icon-pencil"></i><?php echo JText::_('EB_EDIT'); ?></a>

I am having problems uploading the file, so here is the full text.

Great. Thanks for sharing the code
