Stream appears in every menu

How do I remove the stream that appears in every menu? I have set up User Login to redirect to Community. The site then becomes private for just members of this small group. All I want on the Community page is the most recent stream as shown in SS#1 below. I did this by Publishing the EasySocial Stream module to Community only in the Content-top position.

However I am getting a duplicate Stream below this Module. In fact the duplicate stream appears on every first page from each menu item. ie. If I click on Groups I get the necessary items in the Left position but the unwanted duplicate stream (not my Published Module) also appears there. It does this for every page... Albums, Videos, Audio. I only want my EasySocial Stream module to appear in Community, not in the other locations.

How do I remove the unwanted Stream?

** Currently using Fluent Template and Horizon Theme
ok... I think I have this one figured out as well. Being new to EasySocial I wrongly thought that the download of ES and installation of the template would be closer to a working copy similar to the demo versions online.

What I did not know was that the reason I was getting a stream in each of the menu pages was because there was no Menu-type assigned to each one. As soon as I assigned the (Pages) All Page Layout to the Pages Menu it was like a magic moment.

Yeah I know, I'm a newb to ES but if there had been a set of goto instructions or a brief video tutorial available to show even one menu setup it would have saved days of hair pulling. I now have all pages functioning in a basic setup that should be easily navigable by members of our club.

Now all I need is some content to make it look even better.

I am also finding that some of the modules I published are no longer necessary, because as soon as I set the menu items the modules showed up in the Left position as I had hoped.

oops... forgot to attach the two images.

However, also note in image#1 that the Pages Menu is missing from the drop-down menu. I have opened another ticket for this but if you can let me know how to get that menu back it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,

Phew, Im glad to see you've figure it out yourself. Yes it would be beneficial to have a brief video tutorial on setting up EasySocial and the all the functionality available, however, unfortunately our hands are tied with development and support. We'll see if we can have it in the future.

By the way, please do checkout our documentation for EasySocial: https://stackideas.com/docs/easysocial .

Just for your information, I have locked and marked this thread as resolved to avoid confusions in the future. Please start a new thread if you have any other issue in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiries.

Thanks for understanding.
