You cannot remove them via the admin panel, but there is a contribution which will allow you to turn them on and off in the admin (but installing the contirbution is probably more work than just removing the code manually) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaunklink Posted July 11, 2005 Share Posted July 11, 2005 Maybe not the best suggestion (as some would say) but if your just starting, give the STS template contribution a try. I'm working with it right now for a client who does not want to change the look of their site. It takes a bit of shoehorning the layout, but you can place most elements where ever you want.
