[SOLVED]Edit Footer

[dixie]

I would like to do some basic editing of the footer. Center the links, add some spaces between the links, and add my shops' copyright. But I can't figure out how to do it. I would appreciate any help. Thank you. I have the latest upgrade, but am using the older theme.

 

 

Thank you for your help. It took me awhile, but I got it done. My footer is now centered, spaces added, and my website with copyright is displaying. I wouldn't have been able to do it without your help. Again, thank you!

These sorts of changes would need to be done in modules/blockcms/blockcms.tpl

 

Make sure you make a back up of both the original file in case you need to revert back. Also back up edited file so if you upgrade again you will lose the changes.

I went to the tpl file, but I don't know anything about coding. I can copy and paste, but that is about it. Is there a free module out there to do basic editing in the footer? Or, another way to edit the footer without knowing code? Thank you.

Ah! from your original post I was under the impression you knew the basics of editing the files.

 

I am not aware of a module to do this.

 

Have a look at post #82 of THIS thread for centering the footer links.

 

 

To put your shops copyright to replace the 'powered by prestashop' have a look right at the bottom of the blockcms.tpl file for this line:

 

{if $display_poweredby}<li class="last_item">{l s='Powered by' mod='blockcms'} <a href="http://www.prestashop.com">PrestaShop</a>™</li>{/if}

 

You can change the http://www.prestashop.com to whatever link you want and the word 'PrestaShop' to your shop name. The &trade part adds the trade mark character. You could change this to &copy to make it copyright mark.

 

Example:

 

{if $display_poweredby}<li class="last_item">{l s='Website by' mod='blockcms'} <a href="http://www.mydomain.com">My Shop Name</a>©</li>{/if}

 

Make a copy of your blockcms.tpl file before making any changes and after completing the edit go to Preferences>Performance and Force compile for your changes to be implemented in the FO.

 

Regarding additional links you can change some of these in Modules/Front office features>CMS block. If you want to add your own CMS page links similar to the About Us and the Terms & Conditions you will need to create the pages first in Tools>CMS then go back to include them in the footer links.
