Title: Copyright notice[SOLVED]
Post by: Patricia on April 28, 2008, 20:12:59
Hi everyone,

This one is a very trivial one but ... I can't remember where to change the "Copyright (C) 2006-2008 Elxis.org. All rights reserved." string on my website pages (right under "Powered by Elxis ....") . And no it's not in footer.php. Therefore, I need your help. You can also feel free to smile a bit at my "problem".

Have a wonderful day

At the end of your template's index.php (i.e. templates/okto/index.php) there is an inclusion of includes/footer.php file.
Either remove this line completely or replace it with anything you wish. It is not wise to edit directly the footer.php file as it is an elxis core file (modifying core files makes Elxis file-system check fail - not authentic). Copyright removal from the template is absolutely legal and you are free to remove it. What you should not remove is the meta generator in Elxis headers.

Code: (php) [Select]
<div align="center">
<?php include_once( $mosConfig_absolute_path.&#39;/includes/footer.php&#39;); ?>
</div>

Hi Datahell,

Thank you for your elaborate answer. However, I do not want to remove the Powered by Elxis from the pages. I just want to change the copyright notice as the content is from my website and not from Elxis. Do you know of anyway I might be able to do just that?

Replace this block:
<div align="center">
   <?php include_once( $mosConfig_absolute_path.'/includes/footer.php'); ?>
</div>

with anything you wish! Example:

<div align="center">
<div id="elxiscopyright" align="center">
   Powered by <a href="https://www.elxis.org" title="Elxis CMS">Elxis</a> - Open Source CMS.
</div>
</div>
