My b2evolution Version: 2.x

Hi there,

My client has asked me to remove the tools link in the admin section of his b2evo install because he thinks his customers will frown upon the anti spam list that is shown there.

Fair enough.

Looking through the code of _adminUI_general.class.php I get the impression that this is something the programmers thought of too. But I cannot find a setting in the admin allowing me to switch it off.

Should I change something in the code then? And if so, what? I am not a programmer.

Preferably I want the admin to see the tools link but the users to not see it.

Here's that code section from _adminUI_general.class.php

Thanks!

		if( $current_User->check_perm( 'options', 'view' ) )
		{	// Permission to view settings:
			// FP> This assumes that we don't let regular users access the tools, including plugin tools.
				$this->add_menu_entries( NULL, array(
						'tools' => array(
							'text' => T_('Tools'),
							'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=crontab',
							'entries' =>  array(
								'cron' => array(
									'text' => T_('Scheduler'),
									'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=crontab' ),
								'system' => array(
									'text' => T_('System'),
									'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=system' ),
									),
								),
							) );

				if( $current_User->check_perm( 'spamblacklist', 'view' ) )
				{	// Permission to view antispam:
					$this->add_menu_entries( 'tools', array(
									'antispam' => array(
										'text' => T_('Antispam'),
										'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=antispam'	),
									) );
				}

				$this->add_menu_entries( 'tools', array(
							'' => array(	// fp> '' is dirty
								'text' => T_('Misc'),
								'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=tools' ),
						) );
		}
		elseif( $current_User->check_perm( 'spamblacklist', 'view' ) )
		{	// Permission to view antispam but NOT tools:
			// Give it it's own tab:
			$this->add_menu_entries( NULL, array(
						'tools' => array(
							'text' => T_('Tools'),
							'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=antispam',
							'entries' =>  array(
								'antispam' => array(
									'text' => T_('Antispam'),
									'href' => 'admin.php?ctrl=antispam'	),
								),
						),
					) );
