Please see attached screen capture.

I am basically running 3 separate category blogs on the site. I accomplish this functionality by creating 3 separate menu items -- each of which links to a specific Blog Category.

I want to REMOVE the 2 subscription links, in the RED box on the attached screen capture -- because I do NOT want users to be able to subscribe to all Blog posts at the same time.

But I want to KEEP the 2 subscription links, in the GREEN box on the attached screen capture - because I DO want users to be able to subscribe to the Blog posts from each of the 3 separate category blogs separately.

How do I do this?

Hello Jeff,

Please go to Backend > EasyBlog > Settings > Workflow > Subscription tab
and set Allow site wide subscriptions to No
Screenshot --> http://screencast.com/t/oFS0qLt2h

but this will also remove the side wide subscription on your blog front page layout too.

Thanks:)

Thanks Khairul,

No problem with the loss of the subscription on the blog front page - because I am not using the front page at all... just the individual category blogs.

Setting the "Allow site wide descriptions" option to "No" does indeed get rid of the email subscription button, in the RED box, while maintaining it in the GREEN box.

Is it possible to do the same with the RSS feed link? When I turn RSS off in EasyBlog > Settings > Workflow > RSS, I lose the RSS feed link in both the RED and GREEN boxes.

Hello Jeff,

Please place this css hack in your custom.css or template.css
this will hide the rss button in the header.
#ezblog-head a.link-rss {

display: none;

width: 0;

overflow: hidden;

}


Thanks:)

Thanks Khairul,

Worked perfect.

Could you give me the css to accomplish the same thing with EasyDiscuss?

Hello Jeff,

Sorry for the late reply. Please try these CSS codes 
#discuss-wrapper .discuss-subscribe {

display: none;

}

Hope this helps.

Thanks!
