How to give access to JoomFish, but not include on menu bar?

I need to give users access to JoomFish in Joomla 1.5 -- that is easy to do with AUA.

What I do need though is to not show the JoomFish component on the Joomla toolbar.

Users will be able to select content to translate because they will have access to the built-in plugin that presents a language selection box on the Joomla status bar at top right.

But, I don't want to give users full access to JoomFish via the AUA menu bar.

Any suggestions how I can accomplish this?

sorry. can not do that.

Any way to create a custom version of the component that would allow this (ie: a special case handler for JoomFish)?

You can hack the backend module.

file:
administrator/modules/mod_admin_user_access_backend2.php
if this is a menu item in a dropdown, line 917
replace with
if this is a menu item not in a dropdown, line 941replace with
Asuming in the above code that com_joomfish is the value of the option-variable in the url when you go to the admin > joomfish. If that variable is different, change it to that in the code.

Thanks, I tried the 2nd code option as it meets my needs, and it works, but for both code replacments, the additional condition should be:

you're right. I corrected the code. thanks.
