I have setup the CB Profile book and enabled the wall tab. There are a number of features that I would like to remove though. The major one being the ability to email the poster. I can't find anywhere where it even says "Send Email" in the component.

Remove display of the email address or disable notifications sent to profile owner regarding new posts? To remove display please edit the ProfileBook Wall tab in Tab Management and set "Show email:" to "No" under "Extra fields". To disable notifications I believe you need to disable the "cb_pb_notifyme_wall" field from Field Management.

Another thing I'm trying to do is disable the owner of the wall from un-publishing and deleting posts. This is because I am using the wall as a comments / review section.

As far as I am aware you can't disable these features without editing the core the plugin.

Assistance as to what functions I should alter would be greatly appreciated. I'm currently poking around in cb_profilebook.php and am making very slow progress.

Unfortunately I can not advise you on core edits; we do not support them. Typically if you need a specific integration it should be developed to do exactly as you're wanting or reviewing potential alternatives.

I see, reviewing source I see no way of removing the email unfortunately. You'll need to locate the variable "$pEmail" within the source and remove its display. Please see the below edit.
