How to integrate the copyright's infos?

Post by stocastic81 » Thu May 10, 2007 2:41 pm

Hi!
I have a little problem using joomla and smf in wrapped mode.
When i use smf forum into joomla, the copyright infos are show separated by two "separator".

Example:


        Content of the page

-------------------------------------------
            SMF Copyright
-------------------------------------------
          Joomla Copyright


There's a way to integrate the copyright info like joomla.org?

Thanks

(Excuse me for my stinky english  :-\)

They don't have the forums wrapped in Joomla here, so there isn't a double footer.  If you disable the Joomla footer from displaying on your forum pages, you could do like they are here.  You just need to add information around the copyright line in your index.template.php file of your SMF theme.

thank you! but...
In this way the copyright's info are hide in joomla without the wrapped smf inside the page.
I try to cut the copyright's info of smf to paste it into joomla copyright but smf report an alert message into the page.
Do you have any other suggestions?

The problem is, you aren't allowed to modify the SMF copyright in any way.  If you want to pay SMF, you could probably get a custom setup to do so, but they would really rather you just keep the free version with the copyright notice.  That's why you can't remove the copyright from within the wrapped page and only have it show up in the Joomla footer.

I know...
The only solution i find is to delete the separators.  :'(
(There's a way to deleting the Copyright violation but, i don't like to modify the code of SMF outside the theme directory)

Plus, that's illegal and not a nice way to repay the SMF folks for putting out some nice free software....
