Title: Remove From Back End - Latest News, Featured Extensions & Latest Extensions
Post by: sandstorm on January 15, 2015, 17:28:58 PM
In the back end is there a parameter setting to remove the Latest News, Featured Extensions & Latest Extensions from showing in the Virtuemart Control Panel Page?

No config. If you must remove those elements then use a template override for  /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/views/virtuemart/tmpl/default_controlpanel.php

No config. There is a way of doing it. Just so you know, this is a feature that has been (http://www.dogbitelawyer.us/) requested here before. If you must remove those elements then use a template override for  /administrator/components/com_virtuemart/views/virtuemart/tmpl/default_controlpanel.php. 

Hi,

How can I use a template to over ride the default_controlpanel.php?
