How can I remove the "This translation is published" checkbox?

Question

In my custom entity module I have already defined a status checkbox to determine the entities status. What I noticed is when I enable show_revisions_ui in the annotation and have the entity setup to support multiple languages there are two check boxes at the bottom of the page.

One of them is to publish this entities language copy and as a result the published checkbox I created is being ignored. How can I disable the multilingual published checkbox?

Answer 1

So it turns out I needed to define a translation handler for my entity.

inside of MyEntityTranslationHandler that extends the ContentTranslationHandler I override the entityFormAlter function and add this:

$form['content_translation']['status']['#access'] = FALSE;
