Removing contact info from the cover letter [moderncv]

Post by HALP »

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper,sans]{moderncv}

\moderncvstyle{classic}
as my initial settings. CV is looking good, but the cover letter is causing problems for me.

I need the contact info is NOT show up at the top right corner of my cover letter.

The current cover letter code is:

Code: Select all

\clearpage

\recipient{Lord of Cheesecakes}{His Holy Donut St\\211 22 Utopia\\} % Letter recipient
\date{Mars 21, 2016} % Letter date
\opening{sadasdasd} % Opening greeting


\closing{Med vänliga hälsningar,\\\includegraphics[width=3cm]{signature} \vspace{-1cm}}
%\enclosure[Attached]{curriculum vit\ae{}} % List of enclosed documents


\makelettertitle % Print letter title

\lipsum[1-3] % Dummy text

\makeletterclosing % Print letter signature
The \makelettertitle gives me the address to my future workplace, along with the current date. That's good. But unfortunately it also shoves my contact info along.

My contact info consists of:

Code: Select all

\firstname{John}
\familyname{Doe}
\address{\textifsymbol{18} Lawn St. 44}{232323 New York}
\mobile{22222222}
\email{johndoe@hotmail.com}
I need this to NOT show up at my cover letter. How?

Btw, I've already tried this but I can't locate moderncvstyleclassic.sty.

Is there any other way?

It is in your template folder.

Please make sure to add a comment to the changed file that you have modified it.
The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

That means a minimal working example and the log file is in order to help. Without it, i would need a crystal ball to help ;-)

Apparantely I had duplicate moderncvclassic.sty. I removed them all, extracted the original .sty to a seperate folder, and moved my .tex file over there.

It works now. But it slightly messes up my CV part, however that is something I can fix on my own. Thank you for your support. :mrgreen:
