curious
Hi,

I'm building and modifying a site for a client, and I'm wondering about two things:

1. - I installed a forum on my clients site as she requested, but she's wondering if there's anyway to change the color of the forum from it's default color?

2. - Is there a way to change to Copyright footer text?

Any help would be really appreciated. Thank you.

Deno.

Sure, that's why the forum uses templates.

The text is in the language file, /path/to/geeklog/language/english.php

bye, Dirk

Thanks for replying Dirk! I really appreciate it a lot!!

I got the english.php file, however, I want to change the name after the word "copyright". Right now it says
Copyright 2004 - Reflexology Certification and Training

But instead I want it to say Copyright 2004 - (name of person)

Where do I go do this?

That's the site name that you've set in your config.php.

You can also build your own copyright message (in footer.thtml) by using other variables instead of {copyright_notice}, e.g.

Text Formatted Code
{lang_copyright} (c) {copyright_year} DenoChino<br>
{trademark_msg}

You could just get your theme's footer.thtml and rip out {copyright_text} and insert your text.
The reason people blame things on previous generations is that there's only one other choice.
