hmm... alrighty then... will do. thanks

Write down the code you delete, and put that info here, so others can do the same easy.

JHH

Delete the following code to remove forum statistics and active users from the main page (default.asp).  [Lines 525-631 deleted]:

HELLO AGAIN!!

I am still just poking around trying to see what all I can/can't do with my new toy!

I am wondering if I can only delete the part of the stitistics that lists how many posts in how many forums?  BECAUSE.. not everyone has access to all the forum, and if they are told there are 9 forums, but they only see 7.. well.. that's not very kind..

Thanks so much for all your guys help here.  I love my new forum.. it's exactly what I was searching for!

Sure...you can remove it from the response.write in the code listed above.

FYI, I wouldn't always post code in the forum. Its better to upload a zipped mod somewhere since a lot of coding in the forum could really slow searches down eventually.
