Remove new post and people links?

humblesuds
I would like to streamline the appearance of my blog page and remove the links for "new posts" and "people" altogether. They are distracting and could be confusing to some visitors. What macro override code would I use to do this? Also, is it possible to change the "options" link to simply say "subscribe" on the blog page, and "more" on the post pages?

The "People" list is controlled through:
Options > Users > Change permissions

The "New topic" link will not disappear without editing the appropriate macro (even if you don't have the "Create_topic" permission - I regard this as a bug!).

For a blog I believe this is the key line:

<n.new_topic_action_row/> 

within the "actions_widget" macro.

(I suspect that you'll require some kind of conditional line to to replace it, to ensure it remains on the screen for you as an Administrator. I don't have the skills to advise further!)

Oops!

Just realised I gave you duff information about the People link. It seems that what I wrote does not apply to the Blog app. However, it looks as if a similar edit in the sidebar_widget to remove the line

<n.people_widget/> 

should do it.
