The discussion focuses on how to hide or grey out the upload icon in the Edit window when uploading is disabled. What_Exit asks for a solution, preferably through the Admin panel. Moin suggests removing all file types from the authorized extensions site setting, which automatically hides the button. Moin also mentions using CSS as an alternative method. Kartoon provides an example of how to hide buttons using CSS, which What_Exit plans to share with their team.
How can we either hide or grey out the upload icon in the Edit window?
We have uploading disabled.
I’m hoping there is an option in the Admin panel our administrator can use.

Thank you in advanced.
How did you do that? I think when all filetypes are removed from the authorized extensions site setting the button is hidden automatically.
I’ll have to ask, I can’t see the settings. The Admin that set this up in 2020 is no longer with us sadly.
I take it that is the only way to hide it then?
No, there are also other ways. You can, for example, hide it with CSS (Making custom CSS changes on your site).
This is how I hid the “center” button
button.center_ui_button.toolbar__button {
display: none !important;
}
Italics
button.italic.toolbar__button {
display: none !important;
}
So you’d just have to find whatever the upload button is called in console, swap it in the above, and put it in the CSS common for your themes
Thank you, I’ll pass that on.
