Hello everyone,

I have a data object managed "product" in model Admin interface. I want to set the permission to delete data objects to administrators only. I have this function which removes the delete button from the grid for non administrators, but not on the gridfield edit form:

function canDelete($member = null) { 
      return Permission::check('DELETE_PRODUCTS');
}

I want the delete button to be removed from the edit form too. I don't know why the permission check works only on the gridfield list but not on the edit form..

any help?

Thanks

Are you running the latest 3.1 build? I believe this had been fixed.

Hi Willr,

I'm using the stable version 3.0.5. Should I update to 3.1 build?

thanks

Try upgrade and see if that fixes the issue, try define a canEdit function as well. I believe the delete button checks for edit as well. If this isn't fixed in 3.1 raise an issue.
