How to remove login link from YAF.NET forum header?

Question

I can't find good reference in yaf support forum for this issue. I followed these steps from yaf support forum...

comment out these lines in pages/ForumPage.cs.

if ( TransPage != "LOGIN" )
    header.AppendFormat( String.Format( " | <a href=\"{0}\">{1}</a>", Forum.GetLink( Pages.login, "ReturnUrl={0}", Server.UrlEncode( Utils.GetSafeRawUrl() ) ), GetText( "TOOLBAR", "LOGIN" ) ) );

Build the solution and it's successfully output the yaf.dll...

But it still don't work. I'm using yaf version 1.9.0.

I tried other changes but it seem like, the output yaf.dll is not effected to my forum. Is there any other ways?

Thanks...

Answer 1

Not sure how the YAF solution is setup, but i've had this issue many times.

Try deleting the yaf.dll in your web bin/ directory and then re-add the yaf reference to your web project, rebuild entire solution and deploy.

Latest version v1.9.4-BETA3 has a setting that goes into app.config

<add key="YAF.AllowLoginAndLogoff" value="false" />
