REMOVING HOMEPAGE FROM USERSINFO

[cloug]

Let's start by going to
1.) "memberinfo_block_statistics"

Locate the code:

<vb:if condition="$prepared['homepage']">
? ? <dl class="blockrow stats">
? ? ? ? <dt>{vb:rawphrase home_page}</dt>
? ? ? ? <dd> <a href="{vb:raw prepared.homepage}" target="_blank">{vb:raw prepared.homepage}</a></dd>
? ? </dl>
? ? </vb:if>

Either delete this code, or better yet, I recommend wrapping it in <vb:comment>...code here...</vb:comment> tags so that if you change your mind in the future, all you would need to do is remove the comment tags.

2.) "modifyprofile"

Locate the code:

<div class="blockrow">
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? <label for="tb_homepage">{vb:rawphrase home_page_url}:</label>
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? <input type="text" class="primary textbox" name="homepage" id="tb_homepage" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.homepage}" maxlength="200" dir="ltr" tabindex="1" />
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? <p class="description">
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? {vb:rawphrase let_other_visitors_know_url}
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? </p>
? ? ? ? ? ? </div>

And either delete or comment out.

These 2 edits will prevent URLs already entered by users on their profiles from displaying and will prevent any new URLs from being entered.

This is a very good tutorial in my opinion because you have actually provided the code that is needed in order to do this as well and given your suggestion which is quite helpful.
