I'm not sure I follow.

you want to remove the about us menu item?

or you want the about us page to not show the information in the middle?

I'm also not sure on what you want with the home page, you want to link to your own home page?


Please give a detailed description of what you are trying to accomplish.

1. I want to remove the About Us under Contact on the menu. I deleted the about us in the but the menu and part of the items are still there

Sorry about the lack of clarity. I should not post late at night.
I am working with the CMS on this web site. aboutus.php
I have two QUESTIONS on item 1 above:

A. First if you would look at the site you will see that the “About Us” under “Contact” is still there in part. I tried to eliminate it. In the CMS I deleted the “About Us” by selection the “About Us” and clicking on the red x. Then I said yes to do you want to delete.
What you see is what I have now. I did not delete the text first on the address.
How do I get from what you see on the site to NO “About Us” text or menu item?

B. On the second question my client may not want the “Contact Us” button at all. So I may need to eliminate the contact form and the “Contact Us” button. When I click on the “Contact Us” in the CMS the right screen says “Contact Us (3 editable regions) | Page Optimization “ but there is nothing showing below this line. The rest of the screen is blank. The editor nor anything else shows up.

So if I need to eliminate the form and the button how do I do that.

Comment: I noticed all choices on the left in the CMS list more editable regions than show up when you select them. See attached screen shot.

2. I also want all the Home Page and all contents gone. How do I do that? I am using my own Home page I have not done anything to the home page cms yet.

“I'm also not sure on what you want with the home page, you want to link to your own home page?” No

I built the home page in Dreamweaver and changed the linking. The store and home page are working together just fine. I built the CMS and called it Opening Web Page. (Another post we are trying to get the CMS to work.)
The CMS for my Opening Web Page can be seen at the bottom of the attachment. I do not want my client to see any of the CMS for the Power Store home page. So I selected the homepage and deleted it.

A. Will that cause any problems?

B. Is this the proper way to do it or should I delete all the contents then delete the Power store section.

View site at ~rmi25/ click catalog and it takes you to the store,

to remove all the content from the about us page, open it in Dreamweaver and go to Modify -> Tempales -> Detach From template.


you wont be able to remove the side menu form the contact us page with out editing the theme and effecting all pages.

to remove the links from the menu, you need to edit the CSSMenuWriter/cssmw/menu.php page.

try doing the same for the home page, detach it from the template.

Power Store is designed to work the way it does out of the box. You ask: "Will that cause any problems" any time you edit a pre designed application it can cause problems. I cant really say if it will or not, but it may.
