Disable them completely

How do I disable the polls and forums ? I am pretty sure when I used the setup wizard I chose "Minimalistic Website" and the forums were unchecked, but after I completed the wizard, I can still see the "Social" menu with links to active forums and polls sections, which I don't want on my site.

Hi,

I can confirm a bug with that install profile. 'staff messaging' was kept checked, which has a dependency on the forum, so the forum stuck. I'll fix it.

You can remove the addons from Admin Zone > Structure > Addons.

I'm not sure about polls, as that was removed in my test. But regardless you can manually uninstall that too.

Regretfully, disabling the forums and polls causes the site to go crazy with errors, so I gave up.

If you are able to report any bugs here, we'll of course fix them.

I just ran through some testing with these addons uninstalled, but that doesn't mean there's a bug(s) somewhere.

I couldn't see any auto-reported errors, but not all sites have this enabled.

Here is the error I get when I try to, for example, edit a page if I don't install the forum.
