Since the help menu and topics lead to empty stubs right now, I don't want my users to click on that and be confused or upset with me when looking for docs. Is there a way to temporarily hide the help menu?

Also, if I want to write up my own help files for my board, which files do I need to edit to update that or add pages on my forum?

Thanks much!

Hiding the menu should be simple enough with Ultimate Menu (http://addons.elkarte.net/enhancement/Ultimate-Menu.html).

I've added some pages with Pages (http://www.elkarte.net/community/index.php?topic=2494.msg16563) (see here (http://thedndsanctuary.eu/index.php?action=pages;pa=rules) and here (http://thedndsanctuary.eu/index.php?action=pages;pa=smileys)). It's probably way too complex if you just want something simple, but I wanted to give myself some extra flexibility.

To hide it, you can edit Subs.php:

					'help' => array(
						'title' => $txt['help'],
						'href' => $scripturl . '?action=help',
						'show' => true,
					),

to:

					'help' => array(
						'title' => $txt['help'],
						'href' => $scripturl . '?action=help',
						'show' => false,
					),

That totally worked—super easy, thanks!

Sorry, it's been a while since I set it up. It might be worth suggesting it for the next version! :)
