Attached below: I would like to completely remove the 'No friends yet ' link. Also how would I change the heart icon next to followers. It tried to edit the component.css file and change the content id but it did not change the image. I would like to use the friends icon for followers.

Thank You
Matt

Hello Matt,

Try download the attachment below and replace it inside your ..\components\com_easysocial\themes\wireframe\users\default.list.php
and see how it goes?

If the issue still persist perhaps you can provide us with joomla backend and FTP access in Site Details below so we can help you directly?

Please advise.

Hello I replaced the file and it did not remove the friends link. I am also using the Frosty theme in case there is a different file I need to edit. Also will this change the icon next to followers as well or how do I edit those icons? Let me know if you still need site access.

Thank You

Hello Matt,

Hm, I've tested it using frosty theme in my local and the hack is working for me. May I know on which page do you want to remove the link?
My hack is working on 'browse user' page as I assume from the picture attachment that you gave it was from the 'browse user' page.

Please provide us with joomla backend and FTP access and also a clear screenshot on which page do you want to remove the link.

Please advise.

Hi,

I actually needed to edit these fields on a users followers page but the edit you sent me did work for browsing users which I also needed. Here is an attachment with the correct page. Thank You

Attached was the result of replacing the file but just to clarify I am trying to remove the 'no friends yet' link. And then I am also trying to use a different icon next to followers, I already removed the heart and I would like to use the icon that is currently used for friends. Thank You

Hello Matt,

It is a bit hard to send the file and let you test like this. Can you provide us your backend and FTP so we can directly apply it on your site?
