I have tried to find which file would hold this and going through the JAT3 guides still did not help me – could you please tell me where i would fine that little bit of code?

In order to best try to assist you, please provide the url of the site you’re working on, as well as indicate – specifically – the “anchor” to which you refer.

Forgive my additional questions (in trying to understand the “end purpose) of your issue . . . .

What exactly is your end-purpose/goal that you are wanting to achieve with this?

i am actually testing the SEO link value of the page. All the links on a page devalue it’s link value and i would like to see if the top anchor link has any effect on the link value of the page if it’s removed.

As you’re mentioning SEO, I’m wondering if the discussion within THIS THREAD[/url] might be useful to/for you as well.

Hi
Please check my screenshot. Is that Top anchor you are talking about.
If yes, there you are

<ul class="ja-links">
<?php echo $layout_switcher ?>
<li class="top"><a href="<?php echo $this->getCurrentURL();?>#Top" title="<?php echo JText::_("BACK_TO_TOP") ?>"><?php echo JText::_('TOP') ?></a></li>
</ul>

<ul class="no-display">
<li><a href="<?php echo $this->getCurrentURL();?>#ja-content" title="<?php echo JText::_("SKIP_TO_CONTENT");?>"><?php echo JText::_("SKIP_TO_CONTENT");?></a></li>
</ul>

#. Please check my second screenshot to get these file location depend on layout
#. By edit these files, it’s core hacking ( T3 ). To make overrides please copy these file into

templatesja_eventsblocks

and update in these file

ps:// this is based on demo of Joomla! 1.7 version.

I will be interested to know whether or not Joo’s recommendation above is applicable as well.

thanks for the reply, i am still using 1.5 but have tried to do this but it does not seem to have any effect on the top anchor and the skip to content link. I have even tried clearing the file – it does remove the breadcrumbs line, but not the links in the page. I have also tried to remove the navhelper out of the layout of the template. Also copied the file to the template blocks but nothing seems to get rid of the links. Could you please have a look and see if you could guide me with version 1.5

Hi
For sure , let’s me quick show you. Beside that i’ll let’s show you step by step to find out that
#. Search for “ja-links”
And we have it in

z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventscachet31c2a1ac3e8d243544a31e953e4d71636.php
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultblockshandheldfooter.php
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultblocksiphonefooter.php
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultblocksnavhelper.php
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultcsshandheldtemplate.css
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultcssiphonetemplate.css
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultcsstemplate.css
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefault-rtlcsstemplate.css
z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefault-rtlcsstemplate-ie.css

This ‘s file we need work on

z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventspluginssystemjat3base-themesdefaultblocksnavhelper.php

Than we copy it into

z:joodevelopmentja.joodevelopment.comjatc_eventstemplatesja_eventsblocksnavhelper.php
to prevent T3 core hacking.

In this file we remove

<li class="top"><a href="<?php echo $this->getCurrentURL();?>#Top" title="Back to Top"><?php echo JText::_('Top') ?></a></li>

Now we clear cache in
– cache
– t3-assets
Press CTRL-F5 to force browser reload

And have done..

Just very simply don’t need give too much “thing”

Thank you

Update:
If you don’t need whole of ja-links you can simply remove all of code in this file.

i have still not managed to remove the top anchor as well as the skip to content link. I have even removed the <block name=”breadcrums” type=”navhelper” main-inner=”1″></block> completely out of the layout of the template – so i do not think editing that file will remove those links – please help…
