Delete Bids Tab

[littlge3]

I want to keep the bids private from other bidders - especially their names. Sort of like a silent auction. Is there any way to get rid of the bids tab so they can't see the running bids on a product?

Thanks!

You can't really disable it, as that option is not built in.

But you can use some CSS to hide it in the popup. Open up wpauctions.css and add this bit of code to the very end and save the file. The Bids button will not show up in the popup anymore.

Code: Select all

a#wpa-button-bids { display: none; }

Hope that helps.

It kinda worked. I added the code at the end of the file labeled wp-auctions/style/wpauctions.css inside wordpress. It seems that the Bids tab disappears for a split second & then reappears. Boo. Here is a link to my site so you can see what I'm talking about: http://www.littlefieldauction.com/

Thank you for your help so far.

Try changing the code to this.

Code: Select all

a#wpa-button-bids { display: none !important; }

Yeah! It worked. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

I think I'm going to try a#wpa-dirty-dishes { display: none !important; } tonight after dinner :)

Yeah, I wish there were hacks like that for real life huh!

Another question: Which document is the info in that puts an auction inside a post? The bids tab is still showing up there & I would like to get rid of it.

Thanks!

Hmm, that's going to be a bit tricky. The auction in a post "Bid" tab button cannot be directly referenced via CSS. We didn't build the layout like that.

I'll fix it in the next update which should be out in a couple of days.

Awesome. Just let me know when things are new & improved. How do I make sure I have the most recent version? Will I have to do something on my end?
