Can I hide user information from <xen:sidebar>?

[Marcus]

I added <xen:sidebar>Hello</xen:sidebar> to template forum_view and I would like to hide the user information from the sidebar.

How can I add a sidebar without the member avatar block at the top?
<xen:sidebar>
<xen:container var="$noVisitorPanel">1</xen:container>
<xen:if is="!{$noVisitorPanel}">
Sidebar content
</xen:if>
</xen:sidebar>
