Remove admin link from welcome page (MyBB 1.8.4) - bitcoin - 2015-05-11

I (indirectly) asked this a few times, but didn't get an answer yet...

So this time: my serious effort on how to remove the Admin CP link for added security.

I found this: http://crypto.country/forum/admin/index.php?module=style-templates&action=edit_template&title=header_welcomeblock_member_admin&sid=1&expand=27

I thought I could change this for default templates:
<li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$admin_dir}/index.php" class="admincp">{$lang->welcome_admin}</a></li>
to
// <li><a href="{$mybb->settings['bburl']}/{$admin_dir}/index.php" class="admincp">{$lang->welcome_admin}</a></li>

(I also tried commenting it out with #).

So... I think I'm close but do I really have to remove all code there? I'd rather comment it out... Or am I looking at the wrong place, again? ;p

Peace!

~/inc/config.php file has related setting (php files should be edited with a editor like notepad++)
$config['hide_admin_links'] = 0;

its value can be changed to 1 to hide the admin panel link 
$config['hide_admin_links'] = 1;
