I want to use a 'block' of text and put it in content area instead of promote a page.
So, how do I hide "Welcome to your new Drupal website"? because it will appear if no pages are promoted.

Change this code $output = '<div id="first-time">'. $default_message .'</div>';
to $output = '<div id="first-time"></div>';

This solution may work but is dangerous. Folks reading this may be new to Drupal and not be aware of the ramifications of altering core code.

Just install this module and it will do the trick for you:

The unwelcome module seems to not work anymore.

/*Use CSS*/
#first-time { width:0; height:0; visibility:hidden; overflow:hidden; }

That CSS will hide it from viewer but not from the search crawlers... and you don't want 'Welcome to your new Drupal website!' text appear under search results...

On top of that, Unwelcome module is for those who don't know or want to modify anything. Kinda download-enable thing.

There's an update available for the Unwelcome module, which now enables promoted content to show up on the home page when available. Now it works even better!

I would really like to find a solution for Drupal 7
