Ability to disable post editor and other metaboxes when "Page Builder Only" page template is used about wds-simple-page-builder

[modemlooper]

can do it

[gregrickaby]

Maybe we can follow what register_post_type() does?

$args = array( 'supports' => array( 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'etc....' ) );

Should we really remove non-core metaboxes such at Yoast? Those are probably fine to leave as they are purposefully added when installing plugins

[gregrickaby]

@blobaugh Maybe we can set Yoast priority to "low" so it goes below our Page Builder metabox? I feel like we do this on every project anyway...

I just did this on a project today. It requires setting hookup to false and hooking in manually (and then remove/add_action-ing to change the hook priority). Agree with Ben, shouldn't remove all.

here's how you do it per custom page template https://gist.github.com/modemlooper/fe83273ce5458ae5adfe

is the page builder template a wp page template or a SPB template part?

I like this idea a lot, and I think it should be something that gets added to Page Builder. We need to be careful not to assume it's an always-on setting though, e.g. if you're using a "page builder only" template, that doesn't necessarily mean you will always want to hide the post box and various meta boxes. It needs to be something that can be toggled -- ideally in the code rather than an actual, visible option -- rather than something that works automagically. Maybe a new option value passed to wds_register_page_builder_options could handle it?

Also not sure that it's necessarily something that's always-on or always-off. Some "page builder only" pages might not need or want the post box, but others might. In that case, somehow doing something along the idea of #44 and make it conditional might be better.

At any rate, we need to tread carefully with this feature because there's a lot of use cases where it would no longer be a feature but end up being a 🪲.
