How to Change, Remove, Delete or Hide Copyright Text of Quasar Joomla Template from Rockettheme

Thanks to hackerzlab for the idea/suggestion (challenge?) on his/her comment on my "How to Remove, Delete or Hide RocketTheme Logo Image and Copyright at Footer in Joomla 1.5 Template" post. His/her comments:

"how about this new challenge:
can't delete the copyright stuff from the new template: http://demo.rockettheme.com/free/quasar/ which is available for free."

Because of I'm not a Joomla Master or PHP Programmer, not every case I know the tricks/tips of . I will just show you all I know, in other words Just Sharing All The Things I Know about How to Change, Remove, Delete or Hide Copyright Text of Quasar Joomla 1.5 Template from Rockettheme. So please understand/forgive me if I couldn't help you or I used "a rough way" not "a clean way" of "program rule". ^_^
Well, I will straight to the point:

1. How to Change the Copyright text.

Open the params.ini file in Quasar template folder.
For example: my web folder when I installed Joomla is "justsharing" (I used wampserver). So the params.ini file is in : C:\wamp\www\justsharing\templates\rt_quasar_j15\
Open it with your text editor (if you don't have it, use Wordpad instead of Notepad. But why not use Notepad++ that it's free?).

Find this line:
copyright-text=Copyright 2010 RocketTheme, LLC
Change it to whatever text you prefer.
I changed it to:
copyright-text=Managed by Just Sharing.

Save the file and refresh your browser to see the result.

2. How to Remove, Delete or Hide the Copyright text.

Open the copyright.php file in "feature" subfolder of Quasar Template folder. For example: my web folder when I installed Joomla is "justsharing" (I used wampserver). So the copyright.php file is in: C:\wamp\www\justsharing\templates\rt_quasar_j15\features\
Open it with your text editor (if you don't have it, use Wordpad instead of Notepad. But why not use Notepad++ that it's free?).

Find this line:
<span class="copytext"><?php echo $this->get('text'); ?></span>
Delete that line. Yes, just delete that line. :-)

Save the file and refresh your browser to see the result.

Please comment/let me know if it works or if it does not works to you.

Well, That's all Just Sharing All The Things I Know but it works to me.

How to Change or Remove Youjoomla.com Copyright: Case 2

People, sometimes, in their joomla template don't want to display the copyright info or change it with their (information) texts/words. Well, for who can't figure out where "the folder or file" is or when you can't find the link.php file like I describe in my "How to Change or Remove Youjoomla.com Copyright" post. Try to find it in index.php template's file. In this case I used My Blog Youjoomla Template.
For example: when I first time extract joomla packet before installation process, I extracted it to "C:\wamp\www\justsharing" folder. And then after installation done, I install youjoomla template ("my blog" template from youjoomla). So the folder where index.php file is in "C:\wamp\www\justsharing\templates\myblog".
Now find: div class="copyright", here you can change or "remove" youjoomla.com copyright words.

UPDATE:
In Joomla 1.5 Backend go to Extensions > Template Manager > (click) MyBlog (on Template Name to open template's Details and Parameters).
Open/click "Edit HTML".
Find the tag: <div class="copyright">
Now you can edit the text and link in that tag as you need.

Hope it help you all.

How to Remove, Delete or Hide RocketTheme Logo Image and Copyright at Footer in Joomla 1.5 Template

In RocketTheme Joomla 1.5 template (in this case, Akiraka RocketTheme Template) if you want to remove, delete or hide RocketTheme logo at footer, you can do that by change "Show Copyright Information" option to "No" in RocketTheme Template Parameters in Joomla Administrator Backend. But it will hide or remove the footer included the text: "(c) Copyright 2009, All Right Reserved".
So, you have to use default joomla footer module if you want the footer show in your site template (using joomla default footer module will show "Restore Default Setting" and "Return to Top image" too).
Here, I want to show you some tips n tricks that i know how to remove, delete or hide RocketTheme logo at footer but still want to use the RocketTheme's text footer.
Plese note that this is Just Sharing All The Things I Know.

There're 2 (two) files that need to edited in (rt_akiraka_j15) template folder:
1. index.php (remove RocketTheme logo)
2. en-GB.tpl_rt_akiraka_j15.ini (modify text: (c) Copyright 2009, All Right Reserved)

The Steps:

1. index.php

Open "index.php" file and look at line 417, i mean this line:
<a href="http://www.rockettheme.com/" title="<?php echo JText::_('ROCKETTHEME_JTC'); ?>" id="rocket" class="png"></a>

It up to you either just delete that line or make that as a comment, like this:
// <a href="http://www.rockettheme.com/" title="<?php echo JText::_('ROCKETTHEME_JTC'); ?>" id="rocket" class="png"></a>

Maybe you just want to change its logo to your logo (and link), it's up to you. (How about logo image dimension?)

We're half way to go.

2. en-GB.tpl_rt_akiraka_j15.ini

Now, open "en-GB.tpl_rt_akiraka_j15.ini" file.
Change, modify or remove the text after "=" sign.

This is what I did:

SLOGAN=Just Sharing All The Things I Know
TEXT_SIZE=Text Size
LOGIN=Login
LOGOUT=Logout
COPYRIGHT=Managed by Just Sharing All The Things I Know.
INC_FONT_SIZE=Increase Font Size
DEC_FONT_SIZE=Decrease Font Size
RETURN_TO_TOP=Return to Top
ROCKETTHEME_JTC=RocketTheme Joomla Templates Club

If you want to change "copyright" word with "managed by", you need to remove or delete "©" sign at line 419 in "index.php" file to remove the copyright sign.

Hope that's useful.

Sorry (again) for my english :P .
