Hello,

is this solution in following thread today with EasySocial Version: 2.0.15 the only way to hide the EasySocial Log Box Moule yet?

https://stackideas.com/forums/hide-log-box-in-easysocial-community-page

It is always coming when we add the ES stream for guests. If i hide it with css, it will not be possible to show it at another position. So it would be nice, if it just could be hidden in backend preferences. The Module itself is NOT published!

Thank you and best regards, Macjoomla
Hello Macjoomla,

As the changes I made was through FTP, you don't really need to worry about this. In the future, when you upgrade EasySocial, it wouldn't affect this overriden file unless we made changes to the core template architecture which is not going to happen.

Hm, that thread on https://stackideas.com/forums/hide-log-box-in-easysocial-community-page isn't specifically referring to the log box module. I believe Jan was referring to the login box in the dashboard.

If you are referring to the module, you could just unpublish it eh? If you are referring to the login box for guests, you could create a template override for /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/dashboard/guests/default.php and remove the codes below:

[gist]
<div>
<?php echo $this->html('html.login', $return); ?>
</div>
[/gist]

Hello Mark, thank you for this fast answer. I am not a fan of overrides, but followed your instructions. Unfortunately it does not work, the login box for guests keeps showing. I ve attached a screenshot of my override path.

Hm, the override path is incorrect. It should be this, /templates/wanderers/html/com_easysocial/wireframe/dashboard/guests/

I am really sorry, it's my bad. It should not have /wireframe/. Was carried away checking another issue. I have fixed this for you and it should work fine now.

P/S: In the future you should use the template editor at the back end of EasySocial, so you don't have to worry about stuffs like paths

Just make the changes to the file that you want and EasySocial will figure out the path for you.

Thank you Mark, now it works as it should

So how did you do? In Backend where the file is marked as modified? Does it add then an override or can i delete my override structure for this item now?
