Please, pelase make a extension – for my sake and surely for many, many magento users. Not many need that compare thing.

Thank you!!! I must have looked for over two hours trying to find a solution… and none were so elegant and simple as yours. I really appreciate the help – finally I can get rid of the compare functionality .

Thanks for this. I have followed your above instructions and Compare has been removed from everywhere except the My Account sidebar.. Where can I edit that out?

An extension would be hugely appreciated, save people a lot of searching

Cheers!

That simplexml error can also be because of browser cache/cookies

Hi,

That error tends to be caused by incorrect XML in your configuration files. Please check, and double check that you have not got an error in any of the XML files you edited. If still a problem please let me know. Unlikely to be caused by the commandline, in any case.
