 * Hi, thank you for the great plugin. I was just wondering how to disable access
   to the document posts from the document list pop-up menu. Preview, download and
   share are fine, but the go to post gets the page stuck open without a back button
   to return to the list (even the browser back button is disabled on the page).
   I’m already hiding all posts and have disabled the post menu in Dashboard options.

 * hmm I just tested “Hide All Post” and it should remove the “Goto Post” menu item
   but it is not. I will have to take a look at this it may be a bug.
 * I’m not sure why the other problem is happening. What do you have for the setting“
   Post Page Target Type”?

 * Hi, the Post Page Target Type is _blank. I have no idea what these settings do.

 * _blank just means open in new window. try changing it in _self and let me know
   if anything changes.

 * I tried all the different settings, nothing changes. The post opens in the same
   window, the browser back button (which is now available) takes me back to the
   document list ([mdocs cat=”All Files”]) still on the same browser window.

 * that sounds like normal behaviour. Can you but it back to _blank then try using
   a different browser and see what happens.

 * Hide All Posts (Non-members) seems to work, the Go to post option is no longer
   visible. On the other hand, now I can’t access the post from the back-end Document
   Library, document drop down, when I click Go to post I get this: Sorry you can’t
   see this Memphis Documents file you don’t have the proper permission. (i’m logged
   in as admin). I don’t care, I don’t need this function, as long as the users 
   don’t have access to the Go to post link, I’m good.
 * I just don’t know what causes this message.
    if you like, you can mark this topic
   resolved.
 * Peter

 * yes as an admin you will still see the goto post link. But a normal user will
   not see it.
