Remove “Download a Copy” from Sub Menu

Question

I am not allow to modify the core.js so that's not my option. I am allow to add a content editor. I just need to remove the "Download a Copy" from submenu. (this is just for a particular library). The code removes the whole "Send to". Any suggesion?

<script language="javascript">
function AddSendSubMenu(m,ctx)
{
menuOption = CAMOpt("", L_DownloadACopy_Text, strAction, "");
menuOption.id = "ID_DownloadACopy";
}
</script>

Answer 1

This what I put it in my custom master page. I could not mess with core.js because there are many more site collection within the same web application.

<script type="text/javascript">

The proper way to achieve this is through a SharePoint solution with a feature which hides the action. You need to find the ID of the Download a Copy, then create a node for it within the elements.xml. You can target this to a specific list by it's name.

<script type="text/javascript">
function CAMOpt(p,wzText,wzAct,wzISrc,wzIAlt,wzISeq,wzDesc)
