Additional info:
- Joomla uses the Publish / Unpublish terminolgy in some places and Enable / Disable in other places, but they mean the same thing.
- To remove an entire menu go to the Menu Manager, select type mod_menu from the "Select Type" dropdown menu. This will show only the menus.
Click the green checkbox beside a menu module or checkbox menu modules(s) and click the Disable button.
