Hey. I'm writing a package to provide a Plone 3.0-compatible UI for PAS4CAS - a replacement for PloneCASLogin, which has not been updated. The basics work. I now want to hide the login portlet, since it is non-functional and confusing with CAS.
I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be installing a product if I knew it was going to remove a core part of Plone (even if uninstalling the package puts it back). I think it'd be easier for everyone if this was just documented and you left the poor portlet alone. :)

OK, OK, I relent. You and Matt have convinced me. I'll just do this manually on my site and put the instructions in the README so others can do it easily. I'll leave the portlet definition and all the instances as-is.

Martin,

I did a quick google search for 'plone hide portlet' and quickly got bored with reading the results. So, I thought 'Martin put in /@@manage-viewlets, I bet there's a /@@manage-portlets.' Thus I just jumped into my test site and typed that into the URL at site root and got a nice list of portlets, including login with a nice red 'x' to remove it. Which I clicked and it worked beautifully!

I repeat the steps, which I know you know, because I'm documenting it for others who get lost in a sea of old or irrelevant google results (NB: I'm running Plone 3.0.2). But I want to say that it's a real pleasure to work with something that does what I expect. Thank you!

Derek
