Hello to all,

once again I need your help:

For nodetype webform, like for any other nodetypes, we can enable "Hide path display" at /admin/structure/types/manage/webform/configure, but it seems that this setting is default for all webforms - appearantly there is no option for an individual setting on the webform-node-edit-form itself.

Is this a missing feature? Or a bug? Or am I missing something?

Thank you and best regards

Hi @Z4N8r

This is by design. For every content type, it is a setting: on or off. This keeps it very "cheap" performance wise as loading nodes is a simple check rather than having to check node grant tables which on a large site with lots of content can have an impact.

If you want node by node permissions within a content type then there are a few different node access modules to choose from.

This may not suit your use case but I always have the webform content type hidden and include webforms as blocks.

Hi and thanks for clearifying!

Hiding the nodes and using blocks seems to be a good solution.
