I recently purchased the professional edition and want to know how I can modify the "add artist" and "add album" forms to my website.

I want to remove from the add artist form:

1. the "genre" option from the Basic Details block;
2. the Extended Details block entirely;

I want to remove from the add Album form:

1. the "format" and "genre" choices from the Basic Details block;
2. the Extended Details block entirely;
3. the Edition Details block entirely;
4. the Part of a Set Details entirely.

Thank you very much. I am operating Joomla 1.5.23, and the 1.6-1.7 version of Music Collection Professional, and Community Builder 1.4.

    Hello,

    Could someone please tell me how to code that out. I know what files to look at but when I code those blocks of PHP out I get errors.

    So I need your help:

    I want to remove the following from the add Album form:

    1. the "format" and "genre" choices from the Basic Details block;
    2. the Extended Details block entirely;
    3. the Edition Details block entirely;
    4. the Part of a Set Details entirely.

    Thank you.

    Regards,
    Rob

    what errors you get? I mean, if you just strip out the code (not just the PHP, also the useless HTML) it should work..!

    I can send you a modiied file by email if you want.

    ".../album/tmpl/form.php"
    COPY THIS FORM FOR BACKUP!!!

    Open it and delete this:

    
formats );$i formats[$i];$selected = "";if($row->id == $this->album->format_id) $selected = "selected";?>">format_name;?>


    For GENRE code:
    search "GENRE" and delete all in 
    ...


    Others code it's same operation !

    Is not hard ;)

    Peace

    Hello Germi,

    It is my silly coding errors that do this. Could you send me the email with the modified code - if you could just comment out the code instead of deleting it I would appreciate that very much - Thank you!

    Regards,
    Robert
