I want to have the "Item view options in category view" and "Item view options" to show in the Edit Item Front End popup window.

Hi. You need to make a template override for this. There is a statement in the itemform.php which hides the options when we are on front-end. It starts in line 812.

The check is the :
<?php if($this->mainframe->isAdmin()): ?>

Of course you need to find where the if ends and remove the endif statement as well. If you are not familiar with this, ask a developer to do it for you.

Ok. I deleted the if and the endif but it is not working.

Hasn't anyone else wanted to have these options available on the fronted?

I am still looking for some help or a dev that would like to solve this.

My goal is to reduce the requirement for non-tech savy clients to log into the backend. If the item view options were available on the front end then they could modify the "small stuff" themselves. :-)

Have you modified the correct file? You need to modify the itemform.php not the item.php.

Yes I am editing the itemform.php

I attached the file with the admin if removed. But it still isn't working.

I have tried it in these locations:
/components/com_k2/templates/default/itemform.php
/templates/rt_diametric/html/com_k2/templates/itemform.php
/templates/rt_diametric/html/com_k2/templates/blog/itemform.php

Can you edit, test and reupoad the itemform.php
