Can I disable "Followers" tab on Forum Profile?

Hi,
I created a community forum profile in Elastic2, just like in the "Learning Quotas" tutorial video. How can I disable the "Followers" tab and the profile sidebar, so that when users click on the "Community Forum" link, it just goes straight to the forum categories?
Is there a better way to create a forum?
Thank you!

I think what you're after is when someone arrives at the community profile that they are immediately redirected to the forum.

If that's what you're after, setup another quota, maybe call it 'community'
ACP -> MODULES -> PROFILES -> PROFILES -> TOOLS -> PROFILE QUOTAS -> "community" -> CREATE NEW QUOTA

Then move the /community profile into that quota. Do this by visiting it as an admin user then clicking the gear icon. At the bottom of the PROFILE page you will see the quota.

Next install the "Profile Tweaks" module from the marketplace then visit it at:
ACP -> MODULES -> PROFILES -> PROFILE TWEAKS -> QUOTA CONFIG

Change the "Selected Quota" to be "Community" and the "Allow Customization" to be ON and the "Default Profile Index" to be "Forum"

When ever anyone visits that profile they will go directly to the Forum.

Hiding the side bar and the FOLLOW button will probably take some skin customization or some clever CSS tweaks.

Thanks so much, Michael!
I have the community forum link going straight to the forum now.
I would still like to hide the followers tab and sidebar. Can anyone help with some clever CSS tweaks?

Disabling the Followers module for the Community quota should hide the tab.

What skin are you using? There is a smarty call that can be used in profile templates to do just what it says.

I'm using Elastic 2. The smarty code worked perfectly, thank you!

In the Followers module quota config tab, I don't see the same "allowed on profile" checkbox, like I do with other modules. Am I looking in the wrong place? Is there another way to disable the followers module for one specific quota?
