Code

function hook_views_pre_build(&$view) {
  // Because of some inexplicable business logic, we should remove all
  // attachments from all views on Mondays. This alter could be done later in
  // the execution process as well.
  if (date('D') == 'Mon') {
    unset($view->attachment_before);
    unset($view->attachment_after);
  }
