    Hi,

    I need to remove all link from user menù except logout: user menù is the menù that appear when click on User Display Name

    One solution would be hide link in user menù with css... but Is there other (clean, in my opinion) way?

    Best regards,

      If you don't want the user name to show at all, remove the USER skin object from your skin.

      If you want the name to appear, but with no link, you could use javascript to remove the link, but keep the text.

      If you also want the target pages to not work, you can do that with their page permissions.

      The clean way would be to clone the USER skin object and create one that doesn't implement the link.

        if you are referencing the menu on the side of the user profile page ("Profile", "Friends" "Activity Feed", ..) , this console displays predefined pages from the site template existing beneath "Activity" in the root of your site. You may easily edit or remove the pages using the Content > Pages option in the bar on the left.

          If you mean this:
          AFAIK, you can currently only influence those using CSS

            Thanks all for your advice: I found a clear solution, from Joe's advice.

            I copy original skin file and I modify this copy: I comment links creation

            Another solution is CSS Edit

            div.userProperties ul li.viewProfile, 

            div.userProperties ul li.userMessages, 

            div.userProperties ul li.userNotifications, 

            div.userProperties ul li.userSettings, 

            div.userProperties ul li.userProfilename,

            div.userProperties ul li.userProfile {

                display: none;

            }

            ...but I prefer modify a custom skin
