We need to remove the display of ICQ/AIM/MSN/YIM/Website values from our new SMF installation. The columns may remain in the database, but it is important for us that they should never be used, and that the empty fields should never be seen by users in their profiles. New users should not know that the columns even exist.
I can't find a mod todo this -- but maybe somebody here knows how to do it properly.
Would be most grateful for any help, suggestions or pointers.
THIS IS NOT TESTED! PLEASE TAKE A BACKUP OF PROFILE.TEMPLATE.PHP
In Profile.template.php
Find
