Removal of the 'Submit email address...' option from the 'SITE NEWS' side box

  1. Open the news.tpl file located in the skins/[CUSTOMER_ACTIVE_SKIN]/customer/addons/news_and_emails/ side_boxes directory of your CS-Cart installation, where [CUSTOMER_ACTIVE_SKIN] is an active skin of your storefront.
  2. Find the following part of code there:
    <div class="updates-wrapper">
<form action="{$index_script}" method="get" name="subscribe_form">
<input type="hidden" name="{$target_name}" value="news" />
<input type="hidden" name="{$mode_name}" value="add_subscriber" />
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_url"
value="{$redirect_url|default:$current_url|escape:html}" />
<p>{$lang.text_signup_for_updates}:</p>
<input type="text" name="subscribe_email" id="subscr_email" size="10"
value="{$lang.enter_email}" class="sidebox-input-text valign"
onfocus="this.value='';" />&nbsp;<img class="valign hand" src="{$images_dir}/
search_go.gif" width="17" height="17" border="0" alt="{$lang.go}"
title="{$lang.go}" onclick="subscr_form.submit();" />
</form>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript 1.2">
//<![CDATA[
var subscr_form = new cscart_form('subscribe_form', null, null, null, true);
subscr_form.set_required_fields('subscr_email');
subscr_form.set_extra('subscr_email', 'E');
//]]>
</script>
</div>
  3. Comment it out in the following way:
    {* <div class="updates-wrapper">
<form action="{$index_script}" method="get" name="subscribe_form">
<input type="hidden" name="{$target_name}" value="news" />
<input type="hidden" name="{$mode_name}" value="add_subscriber" />
<input type="hidden" name="redirect_url"
value="{$redirect_url|default:$current_url|escape:html}" />
<p>{$lang.text_signup_for_updates}:</p>
<input type="text" name="subscribe_email" id="subscr_email" size="10"
value="{$lang.enter_email}" class="sidebox-input-text valign"
onfocus="this.value='';" />&nbsp;<img class="valign hand" src="{$images_dir}/
search_go.gif" width="17" height="17" border="0" alt="{$lang.go}"
title="{$lang.go}" onclick="subscr_form.submit();" />
</form>
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript 1.2">
//<![CDATA[
var subscr_form = new cscart_form('subscribe_form', null, null, null, true);
subscr_form.set_required_fields('subscr_email');
subscr_form.set_extra('subscr_email', 'E');
//]]>
</script>
</div> *}
