Topic: Remove Info Center. How to do it?

[Juham]

Hi. I am new to SMF but allready i want to make my own theme. I use TinyPortal + SMF.

So a lot of data is on the page twice and i like minimal approach these time to use.

So the question i have is:

How do i remove entire Info Center from forum to display it? (Forum Stats, Users On line, Login).

I would not like to produce bugs in the process. Just /* */ some lines in templates if its possible.

Thanks for answers.

[Nathaniel]

Unfortunately /* */ comments won't work, because they are used for commenting in the SMF template file.

Instead, you should just remove the code.

This is the exact code for the info centre for the default theme:

You should remove that and then add this code to the place where it was, so that you don't get any template parse errors.

Code: [Select]

echo '


[Juham]

Thanks it works fine.

[Miron221]

Great post. I would also like to remove the info bar. (Nice feature for a future release)

I found this on the board.index.template.php. Problem is that when I delete this text and leave echo ', I still get the parse error.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,

Miron

[Juham]

It must work like that if u use defolt theme and if u use smf_1-1-5 version of the forum.

[Nathaniel]

@Miron221,
Can you please post the code around that function, or the entire file?

[Miron221]

"@Miron221,
Can you please post the code around that function, or the entire file?"

Sorry it took so long for me to reply but I had amember plug in installed in my smf board and I couldn't get it.

Here is the entire file.

Thank you for your help!!

[Hoochie Coochie Man]

@Miron221

The file should be BoardIndex.template.php

[Miron221]

You are absolutely right, I apologize, I uploaded the wrong file.

Proof I'm not perfect.....

Here is the correct file

[petesky]

Hi - i'm glad to find this right now (exactly what i need) - is it possible to hide the infocenter only for guests instead of completly remove ?

[petesky]

OK found it - how can i hide the FORUM link from guests to be shown ?

[mrchoz]

That worked for me on 1.1.11 Hoochie Coochie Man, thanks.
As miron221 said maybe that can be added into a future release?

Hi,

I want the info center be shown to members only, but not to guests. Would that be possible?

Code: [Select]

if ($context['user']['is_logged'])
Need that before the echos for the info center.

do you mean to add this line for about 50 times? because there are 50 echos...

To hide the InfoCenter from guests, for myself, using v.1.1.13, I added the following:

BoardIndex.template.php
Add:

Code: [Select]

if ($context['user']['is_logged'])After:

Code: [Select]

// "Users online" - in order of activity.After:

Code: [Select]

// Here's where the "Info Center" starts...After:

Code: [Select]

// This is the "Recent Posts" bar.Before:

Code: [Select]

echo '
', $context['show_who'] ? '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=who">' : '', $context['num_guests'], ' ', $context['num_guests'] == 1 ? $txt['guest'] : $txt['guests'], ', ' . $context['num_users_online'], ' ', $context['num_users_online'] == 1 ? $txt['user'] : $txt['users'];

I hope this will be a standard option for the future. I have tried to copy en paste some of these codes from here and even replaced the complete BoardIndex.php template but the board returned a lot of errors.
and yes the best option is to show this info only to members
