Hide "New Request" Buttons via Custom Page Scripts

Hide "New Request" Buttons via Custom Page Scripts

Purpose
To hide specific "New" request buttons from the user interface using custom scripts to streamline the layout or control how users initiate requests.

Implementation Options
Info
 These scripts can be used independently or combined, depending on which UI element you wish to remove.

Option 1: Hide Top Header Quick-Add Icon
To remove the "New Request" icon from the top header bar (the puzzle/plus icon in the top right), use:
  1. $CS.hideElement("#new-request-hi");
Option 2: Hide "+ New" Button in Requests Module
To remove the "+ New" button located directly within the Requests module list view (as shown in your screenshot), use:
  1. $CS.hideElement("#addNewRequest");

Procedure
  1. Click the Settings (Gear Icon) and navigate to Developer Space.
  2. Select Page Scripts from the left-hand menu.
  3. Click on Create New Rule.
  4. Under the Action section:
    • Choose Execute Script.
    • Paste the relevant script(s) from the options above.
  5. Click Save.

Verification & Impact
Warning
You must perform a browser Refresh (F5) for the script to take effect.
  • Testing: Navigate to the Requests tab and confirm the "+ New" button is hidden. Check the Header to confirm the quick-add icon is gone if that script was applied.
  • Impact: This only affects the visual interface (UI). Users can still create requests via email or other enabled channels.
