I want to disable the Title column from the Quick Edit grid, inside certain web-parts so i did the following steps:-

1- I went to a list view.

2- Edit the page

3- Edit the web part.

4- Under the "Miscellaneous" tab

5- I add a reference to the following JSLink:-

(function () { function registerRenderer() { var ctxForm = {}; ctxForm.Templates = ctxForm.Templates || {};; ctxForm.Templates.OnPreRender = function(ctx) { var statusField = ctx.ListSchema.Field.filter(function(f) { return f.Name === 'Title'; }); if (statusField.length>0) { statusField[0].AllowGridEditing = false; } } ctxForm.Templates = { Fields : { 'LinkTitle': { //------ Change Hyperlink of LinkTitle View : function (ctx) { if(ctx.CurrentItem.SiteAutomaticallyCreated != null && ctx.CurrentItem.SiteAutomaticallyCreated === 'Yes'){ var url = String.format('{0}{1}', "/Programmes/", ctx.CurrentItem.ID); return String.format('<a href="{0}" onclick="EditItem2(event, \'{0}\');return false;">{1}</a>', url, ctx.CurrentItem.Title); } else { var url = String.format('{0}{1}', "/Programmes/Lists/Projects/DispForm.aspx?ID=", ctx.CurrentItem.ID); return String.format('<a href="{0}" onclick="EditItem2(event, \'{0}\');return false;">{1}</a>', url, ctx.CurrentItem.Title); } } }, } }; SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(ctxForm); } ExecuteOrDelayUntilScriptLoaded(registerRenderer, 'clienttemplates.js'); })();

but the Title field will still be editable inside the quick edit grid, while the other part of my JS link (ctxForm.Templates) is working well. so can anyone adivce how i can disable the Title field on certain web parts using JSlink ?? as seems this part inside my JSLink is not working well:-

ctxForm.Templates.OnPreRender = function(ctx) { var statusField = ctx.ListSchema.Field.filter(function(f) { return f.Name === 'Title'; }); if (statusField.length>0) { statusField[0].AllowGridEditing = false; } }

Thanks

    John...do you need the Title to show in other places? If you don't want it at all, what I normally do is create a content type and set that column to hidden. Commented Jan 3, 2017 at 22:04
  • @jpollar in my case the Title column will be set automatically inside a workflow .. so i am already hiding it inside the content type. but on the list views i want to show it ,, but i need to prevent users from changing its value by disabling it inside the quick edit grid.. hope this explain my problem in a better way for you??

John G,

Try something like this.

Reference: Disabling a column in Quick Edit

(function () { var overrideContext = {}; overrideContext.Templates = overrideContext.Templates || {}; overrideContext.Templates.OnPreRender = function(ctx) { var statusField = ctx.ListSchema.Field.filter(function(f) { return f.Name === 'LinkTitle'; }); if (statusField) { statusField[0].AllowGridEditing = false; } } SPClientTemplates.TemplateManager.RegisterTemplateOverrides(overrideContext); })();
