Removing footer link in AnimalBusiness FJT free tamplate

Post by Abdurrahman » Fri Feb 10, 2012 3:50 pm

I have installed AnimalBusiness FJT free template on Joomla 1.7.3. The template is up to my requirements, except for having problems with removing the link to their website http://www.<deleted>.com . When I try to delete or alter the code at the bottom of the index.php file (which is: <!-- Link protected by copyright law. DO NOT REMOVE! --><a href="http://www.<deleted>/" title="cms" target="_blank">Free joomla templates</a>) the output page in front-end only shows the message "Removing the link will break the template".

I am a doctor working for a humanitarian NGO that's why I have chosen this free template. I don't have any background in web designing (only have very basic HTML and CSS knowledge).

I hope you will help me with this problem so that I can remove the backlink without damaging the template.

Note: I have searched a lot of topics on the internet for this problem which suggests different things like altering/removing BASE64 line, deleting the "eval" line in function.php or using the Redaction plugin. I have even downloaded this plugin but it is hard for me to use it for this problem.
looking forward to your reply in simple language.

the following is code in my index.php file.

Reason: removed links and references to site not compliant with OSM rules, guidlines and ccopyright/trademarks . Marked as [color=red]<deleted>[/color]. Moved to 1.5 templates as this is NOT a security issue and assumed to be 1.5 as site doesnt list j1.0

I am a little confused. Could you explain what
Link protected by copyright law. DO NOT REMOVE!
means ?

And also why you are trying to remove something that is protected by law ?

As you are working for them perhaps you could donate a little from your large salary to buy a Template ?

Hello,
You are in luck. I don't know if you are still searching for answer but i am going to point you to this direction. I was having a similar issue with a template of another brand and they also had this encrypted extra stuff that took people away from my site: here are the other forms I found -

http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=615&t=618362

and

http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=615&t=618362

The 1st forum, i believe talks about in the function.php file there is eval ()); script that needs to be removed. Once that is removed, then you should be able edit/remove that final link in the footer.

Also the other forum gives some good information as well about how there are hidden links all over the templates and all that information should be removed. There is also a downloadable, cleaned version (example) of the template the other person was using.

I hope this help.
