Solved Avatar, and User profile link disable

There are 4 options:


1) Create template overrides, but you need to change alot off pages
2) Create own template.
3) Create a plugin thats overwrintg out function
4) Edit it on the core, but you need to copy it back after an update.

810 has summed up the possibilities fairly well but there are difficulties with each depending on what you choose:

1) overrides are messy and time consuming and, if there are changes made to Kunena, some of the overrides may fail when you upgrade.

2) as with 1 above, creating your own template (based on the existing template), may require further changes when the Kunena core software is changed.

3) a plugin can disable the link (fairly easy to do now by going to Plugins » Kunena - Kunena Integration » Enable Kunena Profiles = No) but how will logged-in users edit/change their own profiles and replace their avatars?

4) extremely time-consuming to locate the relevant parts of the Kunena core, make the changes, and remember to re-apply the changes with successive upgrades. For this reason, those people who hack the core usually do not upgrade after doing it once. Further, once you've hacked the core, you void any "warranty" or support from the developers or the rest of the community. In effect, you're on your own.

Yes, that's the solution!
1. Go in backed to "Kunena > Plugins > Kunena - Kunena Integration" and choose Enable Kunena Profiles = No
2. Go to "Menus > Kunena Menu" and create additional the Kunena menu item Edit User

Then you can edit with the menu item "Edit User" your own profile, and with the menu item "Profile" you see your own profile. But no others users have access.

This is the solution! Thanks!
