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

What I did was just hide the copyright info via the template manager and then simply add a custom HTML module into the copyright position with my company and copyright info/links. Simples :)
ReplyDelete@J Ellis: That's right, I agree with you.
ReplyDeleteI just share for us who don't want to hide and add module in joomla backend and use default one from developer 'cause sometimes there's "unique style" in their footer module. :)
hi all am no great programmer but all the above fail
ReplyDeletefoolproof method
use notepad++ goto
find these beginning lines
<?php /** Begin Copyright **/ if
/** End Copyright **/ delete till here
could not post the exact code
because
Your HTML cannot be accepted: Tag is not allowed: DIV
approx 120+ line (depends on template)
this will do the job believe me
@Anonymous:
ReplyDeleteWhich one that will do the job? Mine or yours? because I have rechecked mine several times and it always do the job. I don't get it. Depend on this line of your comment:
hi all am no great programmer but all the "ABOVE" fail.
My understanding that mine is fail.
If the word is BELOW not ABOVE that mean mine is works.
Thanks

ReplyDeleteHow about just going into the Gantry settings that came with the template and either turning it off and/or changing the text?
ReplyDeleteOr would that be too easy?
