“Joomla! is Free Software released under the GNU/GPL License.”I’m having trouble finding the right file and code, thanks in advance for any help.

September 7, 2009 at 3:37 pm #316700Thanks mfcphil but the pdf only tells me how to remove the other footer element (there’s two):
The pdf shows how to remove “Copyright © 2009 SITENAME. All Rights Reserved. Designed by ACME.”not the:
“Joomla! is Free Software released under the GNU/GPL License.”cgc0202 Friendcgc0202

Yes, it gets tricky finding it. What I plan to do actually is just hack the script so that there is no need to go to the convoluted way of writing just one or two sentences in the footer. Then, I disable the footer module itself.
I then just write a simple script, just like in Joomla 1.0.x, to write a simple php to state whatever I want. This simple step has dramatically enhanced the speed loading of my site.
The steps and links relevant to the conventional revision of the footer text Teline II is outlined below. It is slightly different with Teline III, because the index.php refers to a lot of “include” statements to include its layout. In the Teline III templates directory
templates => teline_iii => index.php
study the index.php
to follow the includes. In the teline_iii directory, you will find a subdirectory that defines the footer.php, follow the includes again, etc., etc. (see sleuthing in the links below).
That was why I decided to simply hack the footer.php, and replaced it with my own simplified php script.
If I were you though, I would wait until they release the stable version. of Teline III before dealing with this. There are bound to be many changes based on the bugs and other revisions proposed and accepted.
***********************
Teline II
***********************
If it is like Teline II, there are a number of posts already sharing how to do it. Also, I think for Developers Joomlart provides instructions on how to change the footer. You should ask for it.In my case, in Teline II, I just go to the index.php (in the template), and hack the entire footer script there.
For Teline II, check the link given in the first post in this thread:
Current and Start Date in Footer for Joomla1.5x-Teline II
http://www.joomlart.com/forums/topic/current-and-start-date-in-footer-for-joomla1-5x-teline-ii/The entire thread itself is about a more sophisticated way of including start and current year in the copyright date. However, there is a link there that lets you find other files. Just follow the files indicated by the “include” commands.
