    Is it possible in the “Options” tab of the Edit Entry page to hide the “Author” field for a certain member group? 

    Thanks,
    Nate

    Ouch, my pet hate - an “I figured it out post” without the bit you figured out. 😉

    Can you please post what you’ve figured out as I’m sure people will Google over to your post at some point.

    Thanks

    oops!  Yeah, when logged in as a Super Admin, you have in the Publish page the ability to use the “show toolbar” link which enables you to show/hide fields, add/remove tabs and “Publish Layout” (at bottom of toolbar pane) for a specific member group.  For this purpose, I made the Edit page for my Members group only show specific fields - of which Authors is not shown.
