really simple question, how do i disable "newsletter" i dont plan to have a news letter, how do i take this out from custmers eyes/ usage?

Under customer/home.tpl you can go through the code and delete the code towards the end that has the include for the newsletter or you can put {* before it and *} after it to comment it out.

I *think* thats the correct way. I am still learning too, but thought I would at least try to give a hand -- there are other real "pros" around here, but they shouldn't have to answer everything

There are two parts where you would want to take this:

1. /skin1/customer/home.tpl
Where it says:

{ include file="news.tpl" }

2. /skin1/customer/main/register.tpl
Where it says:

<tr valign=middle>
<td height=20 colspan=3>{$lng.lbl_newsletter}<hr size=1 noshade></td>
</tr>

<tr valign=middle>
<td></td>
<td></td>
<td>
<input type=checkbox name=newsletter {if $userinfo.newsletter eq "Y"}checked{/if}>
{$lng.txt_newsletter_msg}
</td>
</tr>

But as lyncca mentions, it is better to comment them out, in case you decide to use them in the future.

Ahh, I didn't do the second one. I suppose I should

What lyncca mentions is correct, although the second point Im giving you is to take out the option when a member is registering (the option to sign up for news) since it would not make since if you dont want to take care of newsletters in the first place.
