Just to add some clarity. You can REMOVE the "Powered by Opencart".

To do this open up /catalog/language/english/common/home.php

find:

Code: Select all

$_['title']         = '%s (Powered by OpenCart)';
and just delete (Powered by OpenCart)

I removed Powered By, but for respect to creators i'm living Powered by OpenCart in footer i think we should all do that - leave indication what cart you're using.

I'm not really bothered, but it would be nioce to at least leave the powered by in the footer.

I removed the "Powered by OpenCart" and here are the results when changing the language:

Code: Select all

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /var/www/vhosts/sim-cards.gr/httpdocs/store/catalog/language/greek/common/home.php:1) in /var/www/vhosts/sim-cards.gr/httpdocs/store/system/library/language.php on line 53

Any ideas?

The edited line in home.php should read

Code: Select all

$_['title']         = '%s ';
works for me.
Nice thing is, you could replace that text (Powered by Opencart) with anything, and it would append your dynamic titles on any page.

I have to remove these things for the client. But opencart has been great to use so far, and I think I'll make a donation when finished.

[edit] Oh, I missed that you had the error after changing the language. Yeah, I can't help there.

Hello,

I had to also remove "Powered by...", on my clients wish, but as I am using Opencart for different projekt, I will donate a fine amount for the evolution of this cms, which I think has a promiscuous future.

Thank to all the developers, I promise to contribute my way.

Hi,

I have been asked to replace the OpenCart text and link by a client... can you give some more detail on how to do this? For example there are 4 x home.php files alone?

Thx

With all due respect to the coders of this wonderful cart script I wish to ask How to remove the "Powered by OpenCart" link from the email template?
Your kind help is expected and appreciated.

Find the mail template at
catalog/view/theme/YOUR_THEME/template/mail/order_confirm.tpl

Locate

Code: Select all

<td align="center" style="font-size: 10px; border-top: 1px solid #069;"><a href="<?php echo $store_url; ?>" style="color: #069; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;"><?php echo $store_name; ?></a> <?php echo $text_powered_by; ?> <a href="http://www.opencart.com" style="text-decoration: none; color: #374953;">OpenCart</a></td>
and REMOVE

Code: Select all

<?php echo $text_powered_by; ?> <a href="http://www.opencart.com" style="text-decoration: none; color: #374953;">OpenCart</a>
For good measure, go to
catalog/language/english/mail/order_confirm.php.

Find

Code: Select all

$_['text_powered_by']       = 'powered by';
change to

Code: Select all

$_['text_powered_by']       = ' ';
As stated in the code, it's traditional to make a small donation to the project (if able) ;D

Even though that are not requiring money to remove the "Powered by", I think it would only be right to send them what you feel is fair and can afford for a high quality script like this. If you can't afford to send money, then at least let them advertise their work. They are all putting a lot of work into this script and we as users get to reap the benefits. Heck, look what webmasters get for a single or two page website (one or two pages of code). And there are how many pages of code to make OC funtion? (And no, I'm not affiliated with OC or their team, just giving my 2 cents worth)

I think the least we can do for OpenCart is to leave it in the footer.

If your going to remove it, you should make a donation to OpenCart to compensate.
