ok to get rid of all the extra stuff in your ACP, just do the following.

--------------------------------------
Open admin_pages.php
--------------------------------------

Ok, now For this im going to show you how to delete both the first and second blocks. But you can delete how ever many as you want. One or Two. But DO NOT GO ANY FURTHER THAN THE SECOND BLOCK. or in other words in the code, dont go past the first array. but for looks and space sake, I am going to delete
"/*0 => array (" And
"1 => array ("
Those two Arrays are titled as the following in your ACP.
//0 => "IPS Services", << Array 0
1 => "IPB Enhancements", << Array 1
--------------------------------------
Fidn the following
--------------------------------------

/*0 => array (
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 1 => array( 'IPS Latest News' &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; , 'act=ips&code=news' &nbsp; ),
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2 => array( 'Check for updates' &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;, 'act=ips&code=updates' &nbsp;),
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 3 => array( 'Documentation' &nbsp; &nbsp; , 'act=ips&code=docs' &nbsp; &nbsp;),
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 4 => array( 'Get Support' &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; , 'act=ips&code=support' ),
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 5 => array( 'IPS Hosting' &nbsp;, 'act=ips&code=host' &nbsp; ),
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 6 => array( 'Purchase Services' &nbsp; &nbsp;, 'act=ips&code=purchase' &nbsp; &nbsp; ),

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;

--------------------------------------
Delete that section of coding
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------
Next find (in the same file)
--------------------------------------

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;//0 => "IPS Services",
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1 => "IPB Enhancements",


--------------------------------------
Delete that code too.
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------
Next find (in the same file)
--------------------------------------

&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; // 0 => "Get IPS latest news, documentation, request support, purchase extra services and more...",
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;1 => "Set up and manage your IPB plug in services",


--------------------------------------
Delete that code
--------------------------------------

--------------------------------------
Now the recoding
--------------------------------------
Ok, for the sake of numbering so we dont mess you up in later moding or coding, We are going to re number those arrays. the ones that are left over.

ok go back to the top and start from "2 => array (". Ok, number that one 1, then just go down through and re number the Arrays. Now once your done that, go to the part that is under "$CATS = array ( ". then rename 2 as 1 and so on. And do the same for everything under "$DESC = array (".

--------------------------------------
SAve, Close, And Upload.
--------------------------------------
Your done.
--------------------------------------

If you need any help please post in this topic. Thank you.

i think you got a good mod Ed,i did this myself when i used a invisionboard,and if you hang around in admin cp a lot,its much better the way you made this....

maybe not very populair,but for sure its a good mod :)

Yes, Esecially for the ones who if they ever decide to buy any extra services, you know the way to http://invisionpower.com why not just buy from there, takes you to the same place. Why have soemthing cluttering up the ACP space, when you can just goto their website and buy it from there. But then again, for ibchat, you have to enter the code. So for anyone who is interested in purchasing Copyright Removal, or IBChat, then i DO NOT suggest you remove this, as you ahve to use that block to enter your given code to unlock them...

Then again, I shall make Version 2 right now. So ill be back with the link... New better way to do things.

I dont think i shall be comming out with v2 because it seems not to want to work....
