Disable Chat?

You could modify the templates to remove all the chat related buttons, there are a few ex. topic.tpl/account.tpl/header.tpl to name the ones of the top of my head. We never considered having a "disable chat" button but may change our minds if there's significant demand

No way Jose! Plugins sometimes break with NodeBB updates and have to be disabled for a while. Chat is toooooo important imho.

Hi guys!
First post here. Great community & product here!
I am in the same case as the people above asking for the option to disable chat, for the same reasons : inside a network where chat is already present.
If the feature doesn't exist yet, can we, like I read, hide the chat button or remove some stuff to make it disappear ?
Thanks in advance!!
