Where can I change what shows up in the left block? Specifically, I want to re-order some of the items in the User Functions, and remove the Calender.

I'm using Professional, and I've looked most everywhere I can think of in the Professional folder.

Any help appreciated.

You can't change the order of the entries in the User Functions block.

To get rid of the Personal Calendar, there's an option in config.php.

Ah, ok. It wasn't immediately obvious:
Text Formatted Code
$_CONF['personalcalendars']     = 0;

Really?! I thought this was all open-source and customizable?

He means you can't change in the block admin screen. You can change the code all you want. I think the user menu is in lib-common.php in a function aptly named COM_userMenu. You might need to rearrange some of the template files to reorder things.

I was talking about available config.php options and such.

If you're familiar with PHP, you can always dive into the code and make changes there. The code is in function COM_userMenu in lib-common.php
