I've attemtped a number of forum areas which I origannly wanted to psot this.. but they are locked.. Never the less I'll have to use this area for my question.


Here is my idea.. I don't need all the extra pages.. file sharing, etc.. I just need the discussion area and cut out all the other stuff.. so when a user/member logs in or someone visits.. all they see are the forums.. and not all the other tabs.. 


Possible?.

Hi Wizard S,



With exception of a few areas, Groupsites today don't allow you to change the names of the main navigation tabs.  For instance, "COMMUNICATE," "SHARE," and "NETWORK" cannot be changed (although "Summary" can be renamed to "Home" or "Main.)  
One reason is because many active users are involved in more than one Groupsite, and it's important that the navigation stay clean and straightforward no matter what Groupsite they are in.

You also, today, cannot hide core features such as the Photo Gallery.

One thing you can do, however, that may help is to raise the visibility of the particular areas that are most important to your members. Here are 2 articles with a few ideas:

We do also offer "Content Customization: Add More Pages." You can learn more about your navigation bar tabs (and find a link to Content Customization info) here:

Regarding hum.. found something close.. I was able to simply add the discussions tab to the tool bar.. but not remove the rest of the unwanted tabs.. - We have had this functionality for quite a while.


We do have future plans to allow GS Managers to turn on and off tabs etc. that they do not wish to have in their Groupsite.  This functionality is included on a future ticket.
