TOPIC: remove "powered by..." ?

so I go to my css template that I choose and did the following, for some reason it changes the color from black to blue. I did paste the #poweredby { display:none; } at the bottom of the css, dont know if that matter or not.


.comment_preview div:hover {
color: white;
background-color: #253F67;
}
#comment .josc_ads {
text-align: center;
}

#poweredby { display:none; }

As listed on the FAQ at compojoom.com/faq/28-remove-qpowered-byq-.html you should only have to set display:none on the #poweredby class. The other changes are not necessary, try going back to the original stylesheet backup and having just that one change. If it still doesn't work, I think Daniel might need to update the FAQ entry as it might have changed.

where do i find it? wat template? i search for the powerded by in template css and i did not find it. but i did in html!

You said you already added it I thought?
Pasting that to the end of the .css file you have selected in the backend should be enough to hide the "Powered by JoomlaComment". If it still doesn't work then we have a bug and we can take the next step to find it

EDIT: The reason why it's blue is because you set background-color: #253F67; which is a dark-dim-blue similar to the blue in my avatar on the right. If you have a link to the page PM it to me (or share it public, up to you) and I can take a look.

I plan to change the things around powered by. In version RC you will be able to remove this from the template - of course I will be happy to get a donation, but it is not obligatory

sweet, thanks Dani

I will defintely donate to the site, you are doing a fantastic Job!

Hi all! I have added #poweredby { display:none; } to 'Templates/Modern/CSS/Standard' file but it still displays the 'powered by' link underneath the comments box.

Does anyone know what this could be?

Cheers!

Hi Bplumb,

yes you can hide it, if you go to your template css file and on the bottom add the following :
#poweredby { display:none; }

it should hide it

Hi Ghali,

I have done this, but still no hiding...very strange...any other ideas?

can you send me the css code you have? are you modifying the css from joomla admin or from ftp?

Hi,

Here is the CSS for the template. Should be as normal but with the extra line at end...

and you did select this to be your default template? right?

yeah,

go ahead and choose different template and put the code and give it a try

open the template and delete {poweredby}{/poweredby}
