Remove section "Mobil & Desktop" / "Sync-clients"

Nextcloud version (eg, 12.0.2): 15.0.2
Operating system and version (eg, Ubuntu 17.04): 16.04.05
Apache or nginx version (eg, Apache 2.4.25): 2.4
PHP version (eg, 7.1): 7.0

Hi, i want to remove either the whole section “Mobil & Desktop” / “Sync-clients” in the Navigationbar of the personal settings or the Content in order to leave a blank page.

I have already cleaned the security section succesfully (Remove 'social-button' and 'clientsbox') but i just can’t find the right file or code-section, can anyone help or give a hint?

Solution: Go to “nextcloud/lib/private/Settings/Manager.php” and delete the line 303 (in function getPersonalSections the 3rd line (client-sync / Mobile & Desktop … )

Thanks

Hi,

I found the solution, just need to dissable “First Run Wizard” App and the option disappears from the menu.

Thanks a lot Aroldo. I was looking for this solution for Nextcloud 27. You saved me. :slight_smile:

Just in case anyone reading this thinks this can be used to prevent users from connecting their devices…

It can’t and it won’t. :wink:
