Hi guys! Help please! I want to put/change my footer. Here's my website: http://www.alexandervillena.com/pspzen/ and I want to make a footer like the footer in my blog: http://www.alexandervillena.com/blog/
How can I change/add the footer with the copyright?

And one more thing, can I remove the zencart banner(.gif) in the footer of my website, how?

Use your stylesheet to add the background image to the footer and style the copyright stuff. Use the language file to change the wording.

Banners are controlled from the Admin> Tools> Banner Manager & Admin> Configuration> Layout Settings.

In includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/english.php, look for

define('FOOTER_TEXT_BODY', 'Copyright © ' . date('Y') . ' <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '" target="_blank">' . STORE_NAME . '</a>. Powered by <a href="http://www.zen-cart.com" target="_blank">Zen Cart™</a>');

Edit the text as desired. Substitute whatever language you are using for the folder name and the file name. Substitute your template name for YOUR_TEMPLATE.

If you want to add the background image, add the following to includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/stylesheet.css. Change the text I highlighted in red to whatever works for your site.

.legalCopyright {
background-color: #abbbd3;
background-image: url(../images/tile_back.gif);
color: #FFFFFF;
}

Can you please take a look at my website, http://alexandervillena.com/pspzen/ I can't see the copyright thing because the color is the same, how can I change its color. and the white space above and below the footer image, how can I change or remove it?

Hi guys! I already fixed my problem. But one more thing. I want to get rid of the white space between my header_bg and the the header wherein I can see the Main Navigation. Like the one in my footer, no white space between the footer bg image and the navigation bar. http://alexandervillena.com/pspzen/

Re: Help! How to change the footer? Links inside!

I am sure, he would have found solution in the following way

  1. Locate the group name Admin> Tools > Banner Management
    and click the status button, which change from Green to Red, where Green is Active and Red is deactivate, hence if you gave multiple groups created it means that you gave that number of images associated in the footer
    please refer to my image A which points out all the group records associated with the Footer banner image

Those all 4 images (i mean since we have 4 entries for the same group name) are shown randomly

  1. Now if we want to disable any of those banner then please deactivate the appropriate row which that the image

  2. If we need to totally disable the Footer banner then it is in different selection
    Admin > Configuration > Layout section
    Select the Records which represent footer entry and remove the group name by editing the record.
    please refer image B
