Want to remove help link from admin section

Post by dan1sh »

Hi Friends!

I'm new with CMSMS. I found it an interesting CMS. Dear Friends I need a help, there is a link "Help (new window)" on every page in admin section. on some pages there is "Community Help (new window)" as well. and help menu on left side of every section
Help

    * Forums
    * Wiki
    * IRC
    * Module Help

I just want to remove all these links from all pages in admin section. I dont want users to redirect on CMSMS's website or community for help :)

one more question!!

Is there and site to download CMSMS Themes? I already know this one "http://themes.cmsmadesimple.org"

You can disable:
Administration Shortcuts
Hide help links (wiki and module help links in page headers)

Go to: My Preferences > User Preferences > uncheck field

Hello -

I tried this for the "Editor" usergroup, and it worked fine.  However, all an Editor has to do is go to My Preferences > User Preferences and re-tick that option.

I tried to disable the My Preferences > User Preferences for Editors, but I can't figure out which option in my own Admin panel would do that.

How do I remove this page for a usergroup?

Thanks,
BW

I also want to remove the help link in the top of the adminpanels.
A operational website doesn't need that help link and it is only (very) confusing for the web-editors.

Do I have to change the template of the adminpanel or is there a simple way.

Please help

You will have to change the admin template. It shouldn't be too difficult to remove if you wish.
If all else fails, use a bigger hammer.

I did manage it. I change class.admintheme.inc.php and remove the function where the help link is generated.

Thanx for all the solutions. Reading your solutions I realize my solution is the worst solution.
Your solutions are much easier.

Thanx
