Sinisa says it is easy to remove the text "Recent Activities" from any version of Jomsocial...
Could it be explained how this can be accomplished? =)

Hi Gavin

Its very simple. Ill assume youre using JomSocial 3.1 and you have something like this

All you have to do is to edit, or create an override for this file
ROOT/components/com_community/templates/default/frontpage.index.php at line 48
Simply remove entire line

<h2 class="cResetH"><?php echo JText::_('COM_COMMUNITY_FRONTPAGE_RECENT_ACTIVITIES'); ?></h2>

How to make an override? documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Customizing_Template


- Don't say feature not working. Instead, explain what you tried and what was the outcome.
- When you think you found the bug, try to replicate it on a fresh Joomla.
- When looking for support always provide temporary Super Administrative access to your site. We will ask for it anyway.
- Help yourself and read documentation which can give you answers to almost all questions you may have

Hi Gavin,

To change any text or remove text you just update your language file.. search about "Recent Activities" and change it or remove it so the constant value will be "" (two double quote). by the way do you want to remove all "Recent Activities" text on jomsocial?

Warm regards,

David

Sinisa's solution is perfect!
I prefer to edit the actual files, that way I know where I am. I have a list of edits that I make jomsocial each time I install an updated copy.

Also thanks for the tip on the language file!
I don't think I need to change anywhere else, just the area like in Sinisa's screenshot :)

Thanks for the help again. I'll be back later with another question to pick your brains :)

For now, I'll let you get back to work :)

PS can't wait for the update!
