Question about the "Team Resources" multiboard.

3 questions. numbers 2 and 3 are the real questions, as I think I already know the answer to #1.

1. In my map init trigger (Which actually is a "Elapsed time 1 second" trigger) I have a "Hide all multiboards" right after making one of the computers allies with the player. This hides the "Team Resources" board (which is what I want) but, I would like to be able to unhide this board for only the players that want it unhidden (meaning the player types in "-show ally" and it will unhide the multiboard for that player), is that possible (I would look in WE myself, but I currently can't open my map as it was made in WEU 1.12). But I am pretty sure the answer to this one is yes, and even though I can't open my map, I think I already know the trigger, is this a valid war3 trigger?
Code:
Event
  Player 1 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 2 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 3 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 4 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 6 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 7 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 8 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
  Player 9 types a chat message "-show ally" with an exact match
Conditions
Actions
  Show all multiboards for (triggering player)

2. Is it possible that if I DO unhide it, that I could remove a certain player from that board, without messing it up? And if so, how do I call on that specific multiboard in the triggers? Seems how I didn't create it (its created automatically by the game when someone is set to "Allied with shared units control" with you), so I can't store it in a variable.

3. Is it possible to edit that multiboard to remove the "Food" fields? (food used/food capacity) Seems how those fields aren't needed in my map, and it would make the multiboard smaller.

You can add and remove whatever you'd like with multiboards...
