add own copyright to footer?

[Guest davscot]

Hello cc-ers,

I want to find a way to add my own copyright info to the skins\yourskin\styleTemplates\global\index.tpl page. (see example pix below)

The problem is that it's just below the Site Docs include. I can't find a way to match the style.

Please help!

This is closest post I could find.

Topic 12349: Where do I find the footer info? shows how to add a <div> to the bottom of the index.tpl. This doesn't match the style and placement.

[Guest davscot]

OK, I've found the file to change is the skins\yourskin\styleTemplates\boxes\siteDocs.tpl

<!-- BEGIN: site_docs -->

<div class="siteDocs">

<!-- BEGIN: a -->

<a href="index.php?act=viewDoc&amp;docId={DATA.doc_id}" class="txtSiteDocs">{DATA.doc_name}</a>

<!-- BEGIN: sep --><span class="txtSiteDocs">|</span><!-- END: sep -->

<!-- customized copyright -->

<div><span class="txtSiteDocs">Copyright Sashay 2005. All rights reserved.</span></div>

<!-- END: a -->

</div>

How can I stop the repeat effect? (see image below)

[Guest davscot]

I got it! All is good again!

I just changed the <span> to <div> and placed it after the last </div> in the skins\yourskin\styleTemplates\boxes\siteDocs.tpl file.

<!-- BEGIN: sep --><span class="txtSiteDocs">|</span><!-- END: sep -->

<!-- END: a -->

</div>

<!-- customized copyright -->

<div class="txtSiteDocs">Copyright Sashay 2005. All rights reserved.</div>

<!-- END: site_docs -->

Yes, you've got it!

For future reference, the "repeat" problem came because you put the info between the

<!-- BEGIN: a -->

and

<!-- END: a -->

tags . . .

"a" is a loop that repeats until no more site docs are found. You placed your statement at the end of that loop, which pulled a doc name and added a separator. Your text was then repeated at the end of each loop until CC ran out of site docs :rolleyes:

Doesn't the license agreement state that you are not allowed to remove or alter the copyright footer?

Also...If there already is a copywright, whats the point of spending money to buy another one; since the content is already copywrighted and not allowed to be stolen/copied.

Amefa, I'll try to be of assistance, though this is actually davscot's thread:

The last time I looked, he had not altered brooky's copyright.

I think the point of having his own copyright extends to product descriptions, site docs, etc.

He should make that clear in his copyright info, I think, but I do see a reason for someone to add more copyright info. If you use the cart, you will be adding a great deal of your own copy :w00t:

Hi, I can't make it work. Here is my code

<!-- BEGIN: site_docs -->

<div class="siteDocs">

  <div class="siteDocsBgRight">

  <span class="siteDocsBgLeft">&nbsp;</span>

  <div style="padding-top: 5px;">

  <!-- BEGIN: a -->

  <a href="index.php?act=viewDoc&amp;docId={DATA.doc_id}" class="txtSiteDocs">{DATA.doc_name}</a>

  <!-- BEGIN: sep --> | <!-- END: sep -->

  <!-- END: a -->

  </div>

	</div>

</div>

<!-- BEGIN: sep --><span class="txtSiteDocs">|</span><!-- END: sep -->

<!-- END: a -->

</div>

<!-- customized copyright -->

<div class="txtSiteDocs">Copyright <A HREF="http://www.bonsaibutikken.no/index.php?act=viewDoc&docId=1">Haagensen Bonsai</A> 2004-2005. All rights reserved.<br>Powered by <A HREF="http://www.cubecart.com">Cube Cart 3.0.5</A></div>

<!-- END: site_docs -->

What am I doing wrong?
