Remove the "subscribe to this forum" button

[we_are_borg]

Remove the "Subscribe to This Forum" button from the Forum Home.

The button RSS feed next to this button can be turend on and off in the control panel. You can find the option in admincp Settings>Options>External Data Provider. When you are there disable "Enable RSS Syndication" option this will remove the RSS button.

The button next to the RSS feed the so called "Subscribe to This Forum" we could not find in the admincp to turn on or off, but it can be done by editing 2 templates.

<li class="forumactionlink subslink"> <a href="subscription.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=addsubscription&amp;f={vb:raw forum.forumid}" title="{vb:rawphrase subscribe_to_this_forum}">{vb:rawphrase subscribe_to_this_forum}</a></li>

<li class="forumactionlink subslink"> <a href="subscription.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=addsubscription&amp;f={vb:raw forum.forumid}" title="{vb:rawphrase subscribe_to_this_forum}">{vb:rawphrase subscribe_to_this_forum}</a></li>


FORUMDISPLAY remove:

<li>
<vb:if condition="$show['subscribed_to_forum']">
<a href="subscription.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=removesubscription&amp;f={vb:raw foruminfo.forumid}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase unsubscribe_from_this_forum}</a>
<vb:else />
<a href="subscription.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=addsubscription&amp;f={vb:raw foruminfo.forumid}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase subscribe_to_this_forum}</a>
</vb:if>
</li>

If you can not find the code here above for some reason look for "forumactionlink subslink" in does 2 templates there is only one in each template so its easy to find.

#Missed one subscription that was located in the FORUMDISPLAY users could still access it by going into the forum and then select Forum Tools this is now removed

If thats the button on Forum Home next to what i'm removing that can be done in the admincp the rss feed you can turn on and of you dont need to alter the template.
