How do I remove the "powered by prestashop" in the footer of my website

 

If you find that you have to remove the "powered by prestashop" text in the footer of your page (maybe its been requested by your customer), you can do this quite easily by editing the appropriate template (tpl file).

Using FTP and your favourite editor, navigate to “\modules\blockvariouslinks”. Find and open the file called “blockvariouslinks.tpl.

The last list item will be the powered by link as shown below;

    <li class="last_item">{l s='Powered by' mod='blockvariouslinks'} <a href="http://www.prestashop.com">PrestaShop</a>&trade;</li>

You could simply delete the whole line, but I suggest you just comment the HTML line out so you know that is what you have done and have a reference. To comment this list item from being displayed simply insert <!--  at the start of the code and --> at the end, so your line would look like this.

<!--
     <li class="last_item">{l s='Powered by' mod='blockvariouslinks'} <a href="http://www.prestashop.com">PrestaShop</a>&trade;</li>
-->

Remember to place the closing comment before the closing </ul>  and not after it, otherwise you will have no closing UL.

 

A point: There are plenty of software vendors who make their software free but make a charge to remove the logos. This is not the case with Prestashop, you are free to remove this, but why not make a donation (or ask your customer to) or contibute in another way to help the developers and community improve Presstashop.
