Remove 'Our Admins' profiles

Development

AI-generated summary

In a Dev category discussion titled ‘Remove 'Our Admins' profiles’, christian_01 asks how to hide or remove the ‘Our Admins’ section from the About page. awesomerobot responds with two solutions: (1) using CSS to visually hide the section via .about.admins { display: none } in the theme’s CSS/HTML editor — though the data remains in the page source; or (2) completely removing it by overriding the Handlebars template in the header, providing a modified version of the default template with the admin section deleted. The solution also preserves other sections like moderators, stats, and contact info, while omitting the admins block entirely. This approach ensures the information is not rendered at all, not just hidden visually.

Would someone please advise me how to remove/hide the ‘Our Admins’ profiles that appear on the ‘About’ page please?

Much obliged, and thank you for your time.

you can do it with CSS (add to admin > customize > themes > edit CSS/HTML > common ), but the information will still be available if someone looks at the page source

.about.admins {
  display: none
}

If you want to completely remove it you’ll have to override the handlebars template (add this to admin > customize > themes > edit CSS/HTML > header). This is our default template for that page with the admin section removed.
