Guest vrakas Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Go to \skins\yourskin\styleTemplates\global\index.TPL after site docs add: <font size="-1"><Your text></a></font></div> or something similar Try the search also, this has been answered many times PS: Check my latest post further down for a complete tutorial, rush rush i made a mistake LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Olivia3310 Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Thank you. I get as far as the Index but when i open that and try to type on that page it does not allow me? Here is a screen shot SEARCH_FORM} {SESSION} {CATEGORIES} {SHOPPING_CART} {INFORMATION} {CURRENCY} {LANGUAGE} {PAGE_CONTENT} {RANDOM_PROD} {POPULAR_PRODUCTS} {SALE_ITEMS} {MAIL_LIST} {SITE_DOCS} When i try to type next to {SITE_DOCS} It does not let me? Am I doing something wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markscarts Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Yes, you are opening that page with a web browser or wysiwyg editor - you need to open it in a text editor, and edit the text of the code. Notepad will work, i you don't have a better text editor (or "source code editor" in a wysiwyg program). Please note that this code: <font size="-1"><Your text></a></font></div> is incomplete - it has a closing anchor tag for link, and a closing division tag, but no opening tags for those. To Olivia, I'd suggest that you should post exactly what information you want down there, and whether or not you'd want a link in it, and I can give you the exact code you need :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
convict Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 vrakas & MarkCarts gave you great tips, however the simplest way is to use UNLICENSED CubeCart code, just add following code before </body> in: skins/<your skin name>/styleTemplates/content/global/index.tpl <div class='txtCopyright'>Copyright YOUR SITE/NAME</div> Replace YOUR SITE/NAME with your own desidered text :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Thanks Convict, simple and practical as ususal and to complete my post and make this sort of a tutorilal here is the instructions and the whole code needed Find under \skins\TheSkinNameYouUse\styleTemplates\global\index.tpl Edit this file (index.tpl) with an editor such as Notepad (it comes with Windows) or get Crimson Editor its free and very good. Look for: site docs and after the second div add the following: <font size="-1"><div align="center"><i><b>Copyright 2006 designed by </b></i><a href="http://www.YOUR DOMAIN URL"><i><b>Name of your site or text you want to appear</b></i></a></font></div> Also, if your content is enclosed in a table, you might want to add a row within your existing layout table for the footer. e.g. if you have a 3 column layout, there should be a </table> before the very last </div>, then *above* the </table> add these lines: <tr><td colspan="3"> YOUR FOOTER CONTENT </td></tr> I think this concludes the whole section / tutorial on how to add a copyright to your footer with an active hyperlink, not a bad tutorial hey?

Guest Olivia3310 Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Ok, thank you again everyone. However I am totally confused when it comes to editing the Index tpl page. How do you edit this page In notepad? I can't figure out how to even open this page with notepad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vrakas Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 You need an FTP program such as ws-ftp to connect to your site in order to download the file to your PC. After you have it there you can then edit it as described above and then upload the edited file back to your site. Please note also that some hosting companys have a file manager that allows you to do this but i would not suggest this, unless you are 100% sure on what you are doing Hope this helps :w00t: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Please remember when modding your cart to BACKUP any files before you start making changes. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kelvin Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 Hi, thanks for the nice tutorial. But I realise that when I go to "View Basket", the copyrite link disappear. And all through the checkout process the copyright link is not there. Do I need to add it on another file? Is it the "Viewcart.tpl" file? Thanks.

Guest Meow Meow Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 Be not afraid.... It's fairly simple. Always backup your files before making any changes! 1. Open - skins\your skin\styleTemplates\global\index.tpl in your NotePad, add the following code before </body> (as Convict said): CODE<div class='txtCopyright'>Copyright YOUR SITE/NAME</div> 2. Open - skins\your skin\styleTemplates\global\cart.tpl in your NotePad, add the following code before </body> (as Convict said): CODE<div class='txtCopyright'>Copyright YOUR SITE/NAME</div> If you still have problem, let me know.

Guest Meow Meow Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 The color of copyright text is controlled within skins/your skin/styleSheets/style.css. Locate this block in style.css: .txtCopyright, a.txtCopyright { text-align: center; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10px; padding-top: 5px; color: #BFCCC7; } then change the color to your desired color.

Guest AdamnSmith Posted December 31, 2007 Share Posted December 31, 2007 I put: <div class='txtCopyright'>Copyright © 2008 designed by <a href="http://www.MY URL.com">MY COMPANY NAME</a>.</div> But I want to know how to change the color of the link text.

Guest jod Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 The easiest way to change the colour is to add these bits in: <div class='txtCopyright'>Copyright © 2008 designed by <a href="http://www.MYURL.com"><font color="#333333">MY COMPANY NAME</font></a>.</div> But you can change the <font color="#333333"> bit to any colour you want obviously. This is a good website for looking up colour codes if you need them. Hope that helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
