To remove the link tree I found this code instead in Sources/articles.php
// Link Tree
$context['linktree'][] = array(
'url' => $scripturl . '?action=articles',
'name' => $txt['smfarticles_title']
);
GetParentLink($context['article']['ID_CAT']);
$dbresult = $smcFunc['db_query']('', "
SELECT
pagetext
FROM {db_prefix}articles_page
WHERE ID_ARTICLE = $article LIMIT 1");
$row2 = $smcFunc['db_fetch_assoc']($dbresult);
$context['article_page'] = $row2;
$smcFunc['db_free_result']($dbresult);
and commented out this part.
/*
$context['linktree'][] = array(
'url' => $scripturl . '?action=articles',
'name' => $txt['smfarticles_title']
);
GetParentLink($context['article']['ID_CAT']);
*/
I tried first playing around with the code you posted, but I could not seem to get the link tree removed by removing any of that code.
Should what I did above effect anything other then removing the article link tree?
Thanks for the help,
Edited to add:
For the top bar with search controlled by this call
ShowArticlesBar();
In the articles2.template.php in themes/default folder
That worked perfect for me.
Thanks again.
