I would like to have removed the Icon legend part down under the forum and also the styles chooser.

On my 3.X forum i could hide the styles option down under the forum, but i cant find it in v4.2.1

Anyone has an idea how to remove the icon legend part?

To stop users from changing styles go to ACP->Settings->Options->Style & Language Settings. Set 'Allow Users To Change Styles' to 'No'.

I did that already, but it still can be seen. Is it possible that it stays enabled because i have the mobile theme also activated? But even when i deactivate the mobile theme the style chooser stays visible :(

Are you testing as yourself (an admin) or as a regular user?

I had to disable the mobile theme to get rid of the style chooser. Also i have found the solution for removing the Icon Legend.

Go to template FORUMHOME and remove

<div id="wgo_legend" class="wgo_subblock section">
<h3 class="blocksubhead"><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_misc}/legend.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase icon_legend}" />{vb:rawphrase icon_legend}</h3>
<div>
<dl id="icon_legends" class="icon_legends">
<dt><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/forum_new-16.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase new_posts_forum}" /></dt><dd>{vb:rawphrase new_posts_forum}</dd>
<dt><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/forum_old-16.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase no_new_posts_forum}" /></dt><dd>{vb:rawphrase no_new_posts_forum}</dd>
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['showlocks']"><dt><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/forum_lock-16.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase forum_is_closed_for_posting}" /></dt><dd>{vb:rawphrase forum_is_closed_for_posting}</dd></vb:if>
<dt><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/category-16.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase category_forum}" /></dt><dd>{vb:rawphrase category_forum}</dd>
<dt><img src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_statusicon}/forum_link-16.png" alt="{vb:rawphrase link_forum}" /></dt><dd>{vb:rawphrase link_forum}</dd>
{vb:raw template_hook.forumhome_icon_legend}
</dl>
</div>
</div>

Hope i made someone happy with it :)

Thanks for sharing your tip. Good work!

Instead of removing the code, I would wrap the code with a template conditional. If you have not used them before, it is worth learning about.

You could just wrap the code in the following.

<vb:comment> </vb:comment>

Then it won't show up, but will still be there should you need it again. :)
