This mod removes those annoying, unattractive boxes (pictured below) from your site without actually having to delete any template code.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/11/9.jpg

NOTE: Also removes Legend from Inbox

Open template additional.css and add the following:

/* TW7S - Remove Legend and Permissions Boxes */
#usercp_content #forum_icon_legend, #wgo_legend, .forum_info .options_block_container, .thread_info .options_block_container {
display:none;
}
/* TW7S - Remove Legend and Permissions Boxes */

Enjoy :)

This is great! I wonder if you could suggest a patch in jira that would add an option within admincp to one of the feature improvement requests about this?

You're looking in admincp/style manager?

I searched within templates and the results showed additional.css which I clicked edit on. :)

If you couldn't locate, click Search in Template in Styles and Templates
Search for "additional.css" and choose Yes in Search Title only radio box.
Choose additional.css and paste the code in it and save !! :)

Thanks installed. Mostly it works great, but for some reason it is not removing the icon boxes from my "Forum Display" it removes all the other icon boxes but not that one. My theme is slightly customised.

Any ideas on how I can remove the icons from "Forum Display"?

Thanks!

Posting permissions still shows in the newreply.Add #forumrules,
like this
/* TW7S - Remove Legend and Permissions Boxes */
#usercp_content #forum_icon_legend, #wgo_legend, #forumrules, .forum_info .options_block_container, .thread_info .options_block_container {
display:none;
}
/* TW7S - Remove Legend and Permissions Boxes */it doesn't remove the "Posting Permissions" header, but the body is gone.

Edit: The header can be removed in forumrules. Just remove the line
<h4 class="blockhead">{vb:rawphrase posting_rules}</h4>

With this method the code is still loaded on every pageview, what this does is simply hide the boxes from sight.

If i can add something. in the "forumrules" as mentinned by Morelinux

simply change it to this:

This way, if you want to put it back on, you will still have the code in the template ;)

Thanks TW7S. This has saved me a lot of time. Previously I had manually hacked the templates... and one of the things holding me back from upgrading from 4.0.8 was template reversion and having to hack all the templates again.

With your edit, this is a breeze! Top marks for knowing this shortcut. Very helpful. :)

I wonder....

This wasn't exactly working for me either, until I placed this at the very end of additional.css

... Now if you've not added this at the button (nothing below it, not even an empty line), try doing so. If it works suddenly as it did with me, my theory of this needing to be last to load (code placement) will be correct.

Its working fine for me now 4.1.10 :)

Thanks, this was useful. Although I had ads in the bottom above the footer, so upon adding this code, the ads disappeared and had some funky arrow dropdown to the ad. So I removed this bit -> .forum_info .options_block_container <-- The ads appear just fine now, and still removes the legend nonsense. Thanks Cheers!

If the div that displays them has a title, you just use it in the additional css like the example in this hack.

This is really neat and simple trick.

does not work in vB 4.2.0 (default theme).... nothing happens when you add additional CSS

Edit, it does when you use this code:

/* TW7S - Remove Legend and Permissions Boxes */
#usercp_content #forum_icon_legend, #wgo_legend, .forum_info .options_block_container, .thread_info .options_block_container {
display:none!important;}
/* TW7S - End remove Legend and Permissions Boxes */

I've been using this for over a year now. Currently running 4.2.3.
Works great in all my skins.
Thank you.
