How to delete "Upload a file" button?

Hi, I’m struggling to delete “Upload a file” button on “Add photo” of BPAP.

I’ve already tried several ways to delete suspicious code but all of them didn’t work.

Could anybody, please, teach me how I can delete “Upload a file”??

thanks,

    I haven’t tried this, but it’s what I’d try first.

    1. Backup and then edit /buddypress-activity-plus/js/external/fileuploader.js

    2. Remove line 489:

    '<div class="qq-upload-button">Upload a file</div>' +

    LMK if that does it for you…

    I have just tested on my install and the CSS worked fine. Can you put that on there again and then please provide me a link so I can see what is happening.

    You could also try:

    .qq-uploader {
    
display: none !important;
    
}

    Once I have a link if you leave the CSS there I can see if it is being overridden.

    I believe in the option digitsoft gave, you could clear out the whole function there, but I haven’t tested that option, because using CSS means you can keep it in a child theme which would be my preference.

    Take care.

    Thanks very much for your suggestion, but it did not work for me again.

    this is all I customized of CSS.

    Could you please, again, tell me about my fault of customizing?

    Thanks

    I need to see your site so I can see where it is and why its being overridden.

    Once I have a link if you leave the CSS there I can see if it is being overridden.

    Can you put that on there again and then please provide me a link so I can see what is happening.

    Also what is the extra curly bracket for in your CSS?

    Thanks
