FW: Quick Ticket Creation widget - how to remove it?

That only removes it from the layout of the user that’s logged in. I
want to remove it from everyone’s layout.

Jim,

I'mnot sure, but I think you have to remove that particular entry from 

the ATTRIBUTES Table for each user that has selected the feature on
their home page (3.6+). Also, you need to remove it from the
RT_SiteConfig.pm file. I removed it from mine -
“Set($HomepageComponents, [qw(Quicksearch MySupportQueues MyReminders
RefreshHomepage)]);”. Hope this helps.

When logged in as root, Global → RT at a glance - which describes
itself as altering “the default view” - lets me remove QuickCreate.
Logging out as root and back in as a normal (privileged, in a group)
user no longer has the QuickCreate widget in my At A Glance,
indicating that it does indeed modify the default view for all users.
The user as far as i can tell does not have permissions to add it
back.

This is in 3.8.2, if that matters.

This will work for anyone who has not customized they At A Glance yet,
but I don’t know of a way to remove it if someone has, since the layout
is stored as a serialized hash in the database. In a pinch I suppose
you could remove that file, but that may stop their home page from
loading…
