1. I am using the EasySocial Login - Login Layout for my Login Menu and it has changed with the update to ES2 by including a Birthday (Day/Date/Year) and Male/Female option in the Registration Panel to the left of normal login.

How do I remove the Birthday and Male/Female items?

You should use template overrides to get them removed. The file is at /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/helpers/html/login.php . You only need to remove the codes below:

[gist]
<?php if (isset($fields['birthday'])) { ?>
<div class="register-field" data-registermini-fields-item><?php echo $fields['birthday']->output;?></div>
<?php } ?>

<?php if (isset($fields['gender'])) { ?>
<div class="register-field" data-registermini-fields-item><?php echo $fields['gender']->output;?></div>
<?php } ?>
[/gist]

2. I am using the EasySocial - Dashboard Layout for my Community Menu and it has changed with the update to ES2 by including the Register/Login boxes above the stream again (they were removed in ES1.4).

How do I remove the Register/Login so that only stream items appear?

You should use template overrides to remove them. The file is at /components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/dashboard/guests/default.php . You need to remove the codes below:

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

Perfect Mark, thank you, all fine now.

You are most welcome Richard
