    Hi,

    I really enjoy using your plugin but please add an option do hide metaboxes by default when editing a post/page. Hiding using Screen Options is not an option since that it’s user specific.

    I really don’t enjoy cluttering the screen with unnecessary meta boxes, especially for my team that have no interest in them.

    Thanks.

    @catalinoanca isn’t “Manage in the Dashboard?” setting the one you’re referring to? You can disable it and it will hide the meta box. Whenever you’ll need to manage CSS/JS files, you can just enable it back. Or use the “Manage in the front-end?” setting.

    @gabelivan thanks for getting back to me.

    I have both dashboard and frontend disabled since I setup the plugin once and forget about it. Having these 2 meta-boxes at the top, gets in the way for ‘forget about it’: http://prntscr.com/mwvqjd

    @catalinoanca I have an idea to have an extra checkbox added with an option: if the “Manage in the Dashboard?” is disabled to also hide the meta boxes. I understand you want a site-wide solution as if you have a large team or install the plugin on several websites it’s frustrating to keep using “Screen Options”.

    @catalinoanca as promised, the options to hide meta boxes have been added. You just have to re-download the plugin. The new feature will obviously be there in the new tag. If you go to plugin’s settings, you will see the checkboxes (with explanations) below ‘Manage in the Dashboard?’. Let me know how it works for you! Looking forward to your feedback!
