Question

Is there a clean way to remove the draggable option on multiple-value CCK fields? I assume I could style it out with CSS but that doesn’t seem like the “right” way to do it.

Ideally, the draggable option wouldn’t be available for any users except admins.

Thanks for the tip @Andrew. Here’s what I ended up coming up with:

function stannes_content_multiple_values($element) {
    global $user;
    $field_name = $element['#field_name'];
    $field = content_fields($field_name);
    $output = '';

    if ($field['multiple'] >= 1) {
        $table_id = $element['#field_name'] .'_values';
        $order_class = $element['#field_name'] .'-delta-order';
        $required = !empty($element['#required']) ? '<span class="form-required" title="'. t('This field is required.') .'">*</span>' : '';

        $header = array(
            array( 'data' => t('!title: !required', array('!title' => $element['#title'], '!required' => $required)), 'colspan' => 2)
        );

        if ($user->uid == 1) {
            $header[] = t('Order');
        }

        $rows = array();

        // Sort items according to '_weight' (needed when the form comes back after
        // preview or failed validation)
        $items = array();
        foreach (element_children($element) as $key) {
            if ($key !== $element['#field_name'] .'_add_more') {
                $items[] = &$element[$key];
            }
        }
        usort($items, '_content_sort_items_value_helper');

        // Add the items as table rows.
        foreach ($items as $key => $item) {
            $item['_weight']['#attributes']['class'] = $order_class;
            $delta_element = drupal_render($item['_weight']);
            if ($user->uid == 1) {
                $cells = array(
                    array('data' => '', 'class' => 'content-multiple-drag'),
                    drupal_render($item),
                    array('data' => $delta_element, 'class' => 'delta-order'),
                );
            } else {
                $cells = array(
                    drupal_render($item)
                );
            }
            $rows[] = array(
                'data' => $cells,
                'class' => 'draggable',
            );
        }

        $output .= theme('table', $header, $rows, array('id' => $table_id, 'class' => 'content-multiple-table'));
        $output .= $element['#description'] ? '<div class="description">'. $element['#description'] .'</div>' : '';
        $output .= drupal_render($element[$element['#field_name'] .'_add_more']);

        if ($user->uid == 1) {
            drupal_add_tabledrag($table_id, 'order', 'sibling', $order_class);
        }
    } else {
        foreach (element_children($element) as $key) {
            $output .= drupal_render($element[$key]);
        }
    }

    return $output;
}
