Hiding the Quick Launch View All Site Content link

At this point you have two options: 1) hide the View All Site Content link for everyone or 2) hide the View All Site Content link for everyone who does not have Full Control to the site. I prefer the second option because it gives administrators the ability to still have access to the link.

Option 1 – Hide View All Site Content for everyone:
Click on the View All Site Content link in the Design view. This will select the Sharepoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl.
In the Tag Properties pane (typically located in the lower left), change the Visible Property to False

Option 2 – Hide View All Site Content for anyone who does not have Full Control:
Click on the View All Site Content link in the Design view. This will select the Sharepoint:SPSecurityTrimmedControl.
In the Tag Properties pane (typically located in the lower left), PermissionsString="ViewFormPages" to PermissionsString="ManageWeb"

Save the page and Check-in and publish

When you customize a site in SharePoint Designer, or you add custom fields to a Document Library, or create sites using that template; then the changes that you made are stored in the database as a difference and that is referred to as Unghost...
