Hide info center from all including admin

[SaltedWeb]

Wondering is there a way to Hide info center from all including admin ?
I am creating a site where the membership wont be as large so having all those stats are not needed.
Would this work  in BoardIndex.template.php and remove it ?

Code Select Expand


// Show some statistics if stat info is off.
/* if (!$settings['show_stats_index'])
echo '
<div id="index_common_stats">
', $txt['members'], ': ', $context['common_stats']['total_members'], ' &nbsp;•&nbsp; ', $txt['posts_made'], ': ', $context['common_stats']['total_posts'], ' &nbsp;•&nbsp; ', $txt['topics'], ': ', $context['common_stats']['total_topics'], '
', ($settings['show_latest_member'] ? ' ' . $txt['welcome_member'] . ' <strong>' . $context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'] . '</strong>' . $txt['newest_member'] : '') , '
</div>';
*/


Thank You

You should be able to strip most of that functionality from SMF simply through settings.

As Lex said, if you go to each theme's settings you can turn these off:

Show statistics on board index:
Show latest member on board index:
Show group key on board index:
Show who is viewing the board index and posts:

It seems I can shut them off of that I was aware, but it still shows up as admin. I'll poke around some more see if there is something
I missed. I normally don't mess with the stats but being the one site I have doesn't need them .
But I'll check again.

Yep poked around didnt see anything that would shut it off so admin didn't see it. I have the show stats disables but still shows them for admin.

If you want to remove info center completely -

BoardIndex.template.php

Code Select Expand



// template_info_center();
}

function template_info_center()

Thanks Osis, I realize I am asking something not common as most want some stats for admin atleast
I am using SMF for a different for photography use and therefore the stats serve no purpose

Thanks for the help.
