Hmm. You might have to do some hacking of the actual plugins source code. I’ll look around as well I might have a need for such a feature.
Hardcoding your default settings into the plugin, editing the settings page to make your settings read-only – all useful tricks for sure. No magic though.
For example here’s some typical options set at the top of some awesome plugin:
// $myawsomeoption = get_option( 'myawsomeoption' );
$myawsomeoption = 'unchanging value of my option instead';
Maybe later in the plugin you want to show the setting input, but you can make the text area read-only:
<td class="myawsomeoption-style"><textarea readonly="readonly" name="{$myawsomeoption}">{$myawsomeoption}</textarea></td>
Alternatively, you can make the settings page appear only to a superadmin, then visit each blog to input your universal settings:
add_submenu_page(‘settings.php’, ‘My Awesome Plugin’, ‘My Awesome Plugin’, ‘manage_network‘, ‘myawesomeplugin’, ‘myawesomeplugin_page’);
thanks David
i will try that
i could also try making my own plugin that would disable the settings for other plugins
i wish there was a plugin like that…
back to work then…
did a workaround
created my own plugin which hides the links in the admin bar and in the admin sidebar for non super admin
like:
function remove_wp_nodes() {
global $wp_admin_bar;
if(((!is_super_admin()) || ($user->ID != 0)) || (!is_admin_bar_showing())) {
$wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('wp-logo'); // Remove the WordPress logo
}
}add_action( 'admin_bar_menu', 'remove_wp_nodes', 999 );
then used

whew…
moving on…
resolved
