[DutchWebShop]

Hi Guys,

 

I would like to change the copright in the footer. I need to say that i already tried everything in this video:

 

youtube.com/watch?v=N9V4ywBBqDY

 

I dit it exactly like described, but can't get it to work partly. I can't get rid of the Prestashop TM and change the date from 2014 to 2015.

 

Any help is really appreciated!

What version of prestashop are you using?

 

If you are using Prestashop 1.5.x or 1.6.x you can do this through going to:

Backoffice -> Modules -> blockcms -> configure module.

 

It has a setting "add 'powered by prestashop' to footer" that you can just disable. No need to modify any templates (unless you aren't using a stock template).

 

Last resort could be editing your template footer, but this isn't exactly upgrade proof.

Hi Laser,

 

1.6.0.11 But that deletes the copyright. What i need is to modify it. What do you mean upgrade proof, that i need to modify it again after an upgrade? Or would that give me problems upgrading it in the future? Because i don't mind changing it after an upgrade, but if it gives me problems then no. 

 

You mean footer: the .blockcms.tpl file? already modified it. Uploaded it back to my server still no changes...

Hi

In order to change copyright 2014 from footer prestashop 1.6 you need to override your module.

First of all, create new template form administration->theme based on default-bootstrap, after that go to the root/theme/yourNewTheme/modules/blockcms/bloccms.tpl

Open it with notepad then lookin for 2014 and change it to 2015

Hi soufiane,

 

There is no theme under 'administration' Does creating a new template do any harm to my existing template that i modified? Can you please be more specific howto create a new template?

 

Thanks!

[soufiane011]

Hi,

In prestashop 1.6 you have right to create your new theme from administration.

Go to your administration, select preferences then themes, you will find on the top button called add new theme after that create new based theme by default bootstrap.

You will find some pictures to do that.

Hi Soufiane,

 

Sorry for my late answer but thank you for the clear explanation. But if i create a new theme, wouldn't this effect my current theme? Because i already made a lot of changes to the default boot strap lay-out. I don't want to lose any changes that i have made.

Hello

 

Using PS 1.6.0.11 default theme and assuming you are only using one language

 

To change this then go to:

 

public_html/Your Shop/themes/default-bootstrap/modules/blockcms/blockcms.tpl

 

And right at the end of the file around Line 129 you will see this:

 

© 2014 {l s='[1]Ecommerce software by %s[/1]' mod='blockcms' sprintf=['PrestaShop™www.prestashop.com"&gt]}

 

 

Change the RED colours to whatever you require and the BLUE colour to your own url, you will also need to remove _blank

 

For example:

 

© 3199 {l s='[1]Website design by %s[/1]' mod='blockcms' sprintf=['DutchWebShop™] tags=['<a class=_blank" href="http://www.google.com"&gt]}

@Paul

 

I've already tried this, it doesn't work for me. Yes, i use one language the Dutch language. I used the translate option to remove Ecommerce software by. But i can't change anything trough the code you mentioned. 

 

[Paulito]

Hello again

 

As you can see it works for me on my test site so I am totally clueless why it does not work for you.

 

Their are two cms blocks, have you changed the correct one. If so then I am afraid you will have to wait for a more expert forum member or dev to help you.

Hello Paul, 

 

Thanks so much for helping me out here. I didn't know there where two cms blocks, whoops i think i accidently uploaded it to the wrong cms block. Now the footer is totally messed up. I still have a back-up of both the orginal cms blocks, should i upload it?

 

[peterzh]

I tried to create a new theme, then modify the blockcms.tpl file(public_html/Your Shop/themes/new-theme/modules/blockcms/blockcms.tpl) of this new theme. It just worked once. After I change the theme back to default-bootstrap and then to the new theme again, any changes in the new theme tpl file won't work.

Then I found if I modify the file in the cache directory "/cache/smarty/cache/blockcms/2/3/1/3/4/13/47/0c", the frontOffice page will display what we want. There could be more than one file in /cache/smarty/cache/blockcms/, only one works. But the cache file will be deleted in a short time.

So I think we need to find where the tpl file is.

Everyone, thank you so much!

Your answers have been very valuable. We have to translate a lot in Presta, and your advise is appreciated,

[Bubiko]

Hi!

 

have you tried BO->Localization->Translation-> and there select Translation modules (my BO is in another language), select your theme, select your language and hit the modify button. Look for "blockcms" and with CTR+F search for the expresion [1]Ecommerce software by %s[/1](it is somewehere at the bottom of the translation block). in the field next to it, write what you want to show on your footer. For example @Copyright 2015 www.yoursite.com.

 

You need to have checked the "display @Powered by Prestashop " in the  footer cms block, only it will display your translation.

 

If you need help with the email templates aswell, lemme know. 

[peterzh]

Hi, I can change the text, [1]Ecommerce software by %s[/1], to what I want. But I can not add a link and I can not modify the year 2014.

[Bubiko]

Hi...in order to keep the link, you have to delete only Ecommerce software by %s, and put your new text between [1]@copywright 2015 mysite.com [/1].

 

Hope it helps!

So every step provided which is to edit the blockcmt.tpl is right and correct. It didnot work for some of us, because we NEED TO CLEAR THE CACHE.

 

Simply go to Back office: Advance Parameter > Performance > click "Clear Cache" on the top right conner of the BO.

 

Then the copyright should change the way you wanted it to be.

[Bubiko]

Hi!

 

 

 

This is the exact modifed code that I use and works perfectly:

 

© {l s='[1]Copywright 2014 Sysgram Romania | %s[/1]' mod='blockcms' sprintf=['Bubiko] tags=['<a class=_blank" href="http://www.bubiko.com"&gt]}

 

Try replacing the highlighted text with your own. File to modify is ".../themes/default-bootstrap/modules/blockcms/blockcms.tpl"

 

Cheers!

Building upon Paulito's excellent answer, this is what I use:

 

{if $display_poweredby}
<div class="bottom-footer col-xs-12">
 <div> © {l s='Copyright' mod='blockcms'} {'Y'|date} <strong>{$shop_name|escape:'html':'UTF-8'}</strong> {l s='All rights reserved.' mod='blockcms'}<span style="float:right"><a href="https://affiliates.strikehawk.com/idevaffiliate.php?id=111" target="_blank">{l s='Powered By StrikeHawk eCommerce, Inc.' mod='blockcms'}</a></span>
 </div>
</div>
{/if}
<!-- /Block CMS module footer -->
{/if}
