Re: Minimal, less “social” BuddyPress?
yeah, it seems strange to turn everything off.
but i too have some things i didn’t want to appear in the interface for users – sometimes disabling leaves the button but returns a “you can’t create a new blog” message (for example).
and it’s definitely not a bulletproof solution, but what i’m doing is just hiding those buttons, forms, etc. via CSS, or removing post-load with jquery calls. it’s true that with any developer plugins, they could turn off javascript or tweak the css, but that doesn’t bother me. if they find a way to get in there and post content that no one can see, sure it’ll get added to the database… but it’s kind of like the tree that fell in the forest that no one was there to hear. other things like the toolbar at the top you can remove via plugins.
