How to remove Latest Activity from MY Page

[Steve]

Hi Guys,

 

I am an admin for my site. I want to customize my page so I would like to remove Latest Activity, Text Box, Comment Wall, etc. How can I do that?  If I remove it should be the default format for all the users.

 

Thanks in advance

Steve

You can target your own page and those modules with CSS. What is the URL of your page. I will take a look and give you the code to hide them.

This needs to be done with Java Script and an external CSS file. After you edit the code directly below following my destructions, copy and paste it into your custom code box.

<script type="text/javascript">x$(document).ready(function() {if (window.location == 'http://mystates.ning.com/profile/3edup8xxk0wdm')x$(".xg_widget_profiles_profile_show .xg_module_activity").before('<div><link href="EXTERNAL-CSS-FILE-HERE" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="all" /></div>');});</script>

Open notepad on your computer. Copy and paste the CSS code you see below into the notepad. Now save that file as ----> hide-modules-my-page.css

CSS-Code:

.xg_module_activity {display:none !important;}
.html_module.module_text {display:none !important;}
.xg_module_comment_wall {display:none !important;}

Upload that file to your website through a text box by clicking on the paper clip after clicking the edit button for that text box. In the window you will see a URL after the file has been uploaded, copy the URL for that CSS file, click the cancel button for that text box and then paste the URL in place of EXTERNAL-CSS-FILE-HERE

Do not remove the single quotes, paste in between them. After you do that, add the script to your custom code box.

I tested this on my website and it worked without a hitch.


**Note**

If you are just an admin and not the site creator, you will not be able to use this hack. Only site creators have access to the custom code box.

Hi Flint,

 

You are the best.

 

It works like a charm.

 

Where can we find the module names(ex: xg_module_activity).

 

Thanks

Hi to The Internet Junkie,

I’ve just fallen upon that discussion and the script you provided to Steve in October 2011. I’d like to thank you for sharing your script with the NC network. I’d like to ask you 2 questions about it, I hope you’ll get my message. Right now, I’m working on designing a standard MyPage to be used by all my network Members. To do so, I’m trying to modify the layout of the default MyPage. I’ve used your script which was a good start. However, here are 2 difficulties I’m facing and trying to solve, maybe you have an idea that could help me solve it: QUESTION 1/ Your script helps remove all the text boxes of my MyPage. I’d like to remove specific text boxes and not all of them. Do you have any idea of how I could identify in the script a specific text box to modify that only box? QUESTION 2/ Since you use the http://mystates.ning.com/profile/3edup8xxk0wdm URL to address to my MyPage, I’ve found out that your script was modifying my MyPage only but my Members’ MyPages hadn’t changed. Is there any way I could do the modifications on all the MyPages to get a unique standard default MyPage laid out as I need it to be? I hope my questions are clear, A big thanks in advance for the help you could provide me with :-)

Go to My Network>Features Layout.  You have full control to cumtomize layout and add and remove stuff.

Hi Bernard,

 

I tried that but the change only appears in MAIN page. I want to change the layout in MY PAGE.

 

Thanks

Hi there,

Thing is that, basically, we can't change someone's page layout. We have to use some kinda javascript code for that and I don't have an idea how to do that...hope someone will help you to do so...
