How do I remove "Promo" on the top of the Homepage?

I can shift from pics to HTML-block but are not happy with what that HTML block allows me to do.

So is there a way to de-activate that whole portion?

Thanks.

You can set it to "use custom html block" and then not put anything there or you can open this file:

/templates/base/page_1.html

and remove:

__promo_code__

Thank you!

Two good options.

When using the option Empty "Custom HTML Block" there is a grey shaded area remaining over the top area where the pics used to show. Is this possible to easily remove as well?

 Hi Grosman,

you can remove the gray area by manually editing your database, or installing a module from the market.

This is a Block Tools that will help you, http://www.boonex.com/m/Block_Tools

or you change this field in "sys_page_compose" for the page, then edit..

DesignBox     tinyint(3) unsigned       1

Change the "1" to a "0" and that will remove the "title" of the HTML Block.

Have you used this site's search feature, lot's of information is already posted on how to do both of your questions here.

1. Create HTML block on desired page.
2. Insert your page code (and I suggest when creating this block you insert your Language "key" i.e. "_games, _my_html_block")
3. Open your phpmyadmin from you cPanel
4. Open your Dolphin MySQL database
5. Open and edit sys_page_compose
6. navigate to the last page of list with the ">>" button, this will display the last "HTML Box" you have added
7. find the caption,  "_games, _my_html_block," listed for the index page or the page you inserted the games or html block code to  

8. Look for DesignBox     tinyint(3) unsigned       1

   Change the "1" to a "0" and that will remove the "title" of the HTML Block.

9. and click "Go"
10. clear cache
