..things are not right - too many tabs across the top, the menu on

just feature and functional differences from 2.0 to 2.1.
I've been able to delete 3 top tabs by unchecking "visible" from
entries in the
portal_actions
The ones I unchecked were: "Book Reviews", "Photos", and "Contrib",
because I felt that having them on the left menu was sufficient.
The unchecked tabs did disappear, but just the first instance of them.
The bloody html still contains tabs that must get put there from
somewhere else, somehow. I still haven't managed to grok the code at
site/portal_skins/plone_templates .. global_sections
I figure there must be additive contriburions that do the same as
portal_actions. .. Now, where might they be?
Yay! I figured out a way to get rid of the plethora of tabs.
From the /preferences/ link on the personal toolbar, which brings up a
leftside menu /Site Setup/, choose /Navigation Settings/. There under
/Navigation details/ uncheck the checkbox /Automatically generate tabs/
There may be other options, including unchecking some of the /Displayed
content types/ in Navigation details. But, for now the tabs have been
reduced to only those 3 which are enabled in portal_actions, as
mentioned earlier.
Progress report on Members' directories for deleted members:
46 of the deleted users had no member directory areas
12 had empty dirs
6 had spam targets -- online drugs, sexstuff
(sorry, I didn't have time to catalog the sex pages <grin>)
There seem to be other dirs created recently. Perhaps I'll make another
pass looking for badstuff.
The wiki page still has an annoying leftside menu, but that's somewhat
minor. I'll have a look, though. It might be somewhat similar to what
was found for the main navigation tabs.
It would be nice if someone wanted to look at the event mechanism and
make it work nice -- eg with "smartpages", and maybe with calendar
tie-in (however that might be done???) ...
