Hello there,

I have a couple of questions before plutting my site live;

How tdo I remove the references to Joomlart and GNU General Public License at the footer of the page?

“Copyright © 2012 Anycompany. All Rights Reserved. Designed by JoomlArt.com. Joomla! is Free Software released under the GNU General Public License”

I have subscribed to you if you check and beleive I’m entitled to do this

Also on a more trivial note how do I change the colour of the “Home” and “Contact us”
links at the top of the front page. Also is it possible for me to remove that “Home” link there?

Many Thanks

Andrew

Andrew: The default php file that controls the footers are a little harder to find these days. You have not indicated which template you are using, but for the newer ones I have found generally that the footer copyright information is controlled by code in the default.php located here:

/public_html/plugins/system/jat3/jat3/base-themes/default/html/mod_footer

It’s fairly straightforward at that point. As edited, the default.php for the foooter should look something like:

<?php
/**
* @version $Id: default.php 18117 2010-07-13 18:09:01Z infograf768 $
* @package Joomla.Site
* @subpackage mod_footer
* @copyright Copyright (C) 2005 – 2010 Open Source Matters, Inc. All rights reserved.
* @license GNU General Public License version 2 or later; see LICENSE.txt
*/

// no direct access
defined(‘_JEXEC’) or die;
?>

What I do before modifying such file is to download the original copy, edit it locally, rename the original file on the host to add an extension of “org” or such in case I make a mistake, then upload the altered file.

Thanks for that, I am using the JA TRavel template for Joomla 2.5,
was wondering whether I could change/remove the Home and Contact Us links at
the header bit of the front page, I assume it’s a default php program,
Thanks for the above solution.

Andrew: I have not used that template. However, I reviewed its documentation, specifically the module positions. It looks as if the Home and Contact Us links at the top right corner are located in a “top menu” module position. I BET that if you look, you will see that these items are in a particular menu, published at the “top menu” module position. Search in your module manager under that position, or for menus. Perhaps if you un-publish that menu, you will eliminate those links.

Let me know if that works.
