3. Hide Contact and About Tab
By default, the portfolio comes with a "Contact" tab and an "About" tab. Most portfolios can use these tabs, but if you wish to edit or disable them, do the following.

1. Login and enter your portfolio/blog.
2. Click Manage in the menu, then Pages. You will see the default pages listed.
3. Click the link to edit the page. Change the "Title" field to change the name of the tab.
4. To hide the tab, go to Manage » Pages. Check the box for the page you wish to hide, then select the Unpublish Pages in the "More Options" menu and click the Go button. This will hide the pages, but not delete them.
