Simple question...

Is there anyway to make it where a user cannot view the "CREATE" button on top of the website? Also the "SITE SETTINGS" as well. I gave user permissions only to view site, but he can still view SITE SETTINGS, just can't make any modofications. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
 
nvm...I found it.

How do I prevent users from seeing links to areas in this site such as Site Administration?

Rather than hiding links and controls from users, Windows SharePoint Services checks users' rights when they click links or try to perform actions in the site. Without being a member of a site or cross-site group with the proper rights, they cannot enter site administration or change the settings for a site, list, or library. There are no administrative controls to hide links from unauthorized users.
 
this can be done by "editing" your site with frontpage 2003 and removing the links.

just remember the url's to do your administration (add them to your favorites or so ;-) )

i've done it allready severall times. This is the solution for your question

hope this helped
