Disable Manufacturers

[led24ee]

I can't find solution how to disablae manufacturers on FO. I tried remove manufacturers module, I tried to disable Preferences > Display Suppliers and Manufacturers. I'm cleaning cache etc, etc. Nothing changes. If I disable manufacturer on Catalog > Manufacturers List then the word Manufacturer is still visible but value is blank. I can also change code in files (so far no luck with themes > > product.tpl) but I suspect that there's something else wrong. Looks like cleaning cache don't work. Any help with this is welcome. Thanks

I tried this also many times. All combination. No changes. I even tried to change php version in webserver from 5.5. to 5.6 to 7.0 to 7.1 etc. Still no luck.

I found temporary solution. But there was also my VERY BIG mistake. I have many webservers and unfortunately I made changes in wrong server. Anyway if I change in file themes > > product.tpl line 266 (TB 1.0.4) to this {if $product->id_manufacturer < 0} then everything is good.
