How to remove the projects tab

Question

Can I remove the Projects tab, how can I remove the problems tab? Since we really do not use the Projects tab or the problems tab.

Answer 1

According to this, the GitHub Problem Report does not look like you can remove the Projects tab in the same way as the pull requests tab. Github should set a parameter where you can remove this tab, since many repositories do not use this new Github feature. I will contact the GitHub contact page shortly to get this problem.

As of 10/28/2016

They said that this would be considered one of the main claims for Github developers, as stated in a statement:

Hello!

I have a question on how to remove the projects tab from your github repository. Is it possible? Can you guys realize this soon? I already asked a question here: How can I remove the projects tab , and there is also a github problem. If you can tell me more, that will be useful :-)

This is currently not possible. Thanks for the offer! I added it to our list for our team.

Thanks, GitHub Staff

Unfortunately, at the moment it is impossible to remove the project tab :(.

Answer 2

Note: from March 24, 2017 this seems possible.
See " Disabling projects from Ayman Nadeem ( aymannadeem ) :

Users with administrator rights in the repository can turn off projects by going to the settings of this repository and unchecking the " Projects " box.

Similarly, organization owners can turn off projects by going to the organization’s settings and clicking “Projects” in the sidebar.
On this page, deselecting the Enable Projects for Organization checkbox will disable the projects of the entire organization and unchecking the Enable Projects for All Repositories checkbox will disable projects for all repositories in the organization.

Disabling projects:

• hides the Projects tab from the repository and organization navigation,
• removes projects from the Issue and Pull Request sidebars and
• hides project related events from the timeline.

Disabled projects are also not available through API requests.
