Create a button with new news post linked to templates

[THOREX]

Hi,

On a SharePoint online site I want to restrict users to the menu of creating new pages, lists, librarys etc.

Instead I want to create a button with "create news post".

I tried the: https://tenantname.sharepoint.com/sites/SiteName/_layouts/15/CreatePageFromTemplate.aspx but this only creates a new page not a new news post.

I don't want a new page since I afterwards when i publish I get a pop-up with "help others find you page". I dont want that.

Also, what permissions should I use at the site to restrict users to not seeing the menu but being able with the button to see the own-created templates, not only the build in templates.

@THOREX depends on your site and the settings you can setup audience targeting:

Let me know if you have any questions :)

Thanks Jennifer but would you mind elaborating on what you mean, I need a link to create new news post via a button and turn off the menu.
If you still think Audience Targeting is the right way please explain how.

@THOREX Use link in below format to create a new news post: 

https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/siteName/_layouts/15/CreatePageFromTemplate.aspx?source=/sites/siteName/&promotedState=1

Also, you can hide New option in site pages library using JSON view formatting: 

{
  "commandBarProps": {
    "commands": [
      {
        "key": "new",
        "hide": true
      }
    ]
  }
}

Output:

Wow thanks a million. I have searched for this createpagefromtemplate.apx option for a long long time.
