Hi Guys, am still learning elgg as a newbie though, so am trying to explore every area to understand all of elgg's features to be able to build coool themes.
Here's the problem, I can't find the exact file to override in my plugin or even extend to be able to modify the user hover menu to the look an feel i want. I personally feel the profile actions menu which has been provided within the user hover menu should be commented out since it takes additional space with the owner block menu all in one place.
I would like to modify the user hover menu for only the profile large avatar such that the hover icon would be displayed constantly and not hidden and also change the icon itself. This will help reduce the menu items under the profile avatar since user hover menus would be providing profile actions which will be hidden.

You must log in to post replies.Here you can read more about how to remove or modify individual menu items: http://learn.elgg.org/en/2.0/guides/menus.html
The user_hover menu is added to the icon in the file views/default/icon/user/default.php so you can override it by copying the file to your theme (mod/your_theme/views/default/icon/user/default.php) and making the changes there.
