Does the exact same thing on my forum.  It sits on TOP of the smf copyright.  Not above or below it.

I will turn it on so you can see what it does...  But I am sure I will get at least 5 complaints that something is wrong from my users.  LOL 

[ccbtimewiz]

Ah...

It doesn't like SMF 2.0 BETA 4's new copyright method.

I'll have to fix it. Thanks for alerting me.

[SpectroPro]

can't wait..thanks!!! 

[Bugpac ™]

I have it off as well, but since you already seen it, Ill wait for the update, thanks a bunch...

I'll add my name to the list.
This is a very handy mod, I used it on v1.16 successfully, I upgraded to v2.0 Beta 4 on Saturday I noticed the overwrite problem.

Yeah I have this same problem as well, looking forward to a fix for this. BTW, great Mod!

[ccbtimewiz]

Fixed for the new beta.

Open style.css

Find:

Code Select Expand

#footerarea ul li.copywrite
{
display: block;
line-height: 0;
font-size: small;
padding: 1em;
}


Replace with:

Code Select Expand

#footerarea ul li.copywrite
{
display: block;
line-height: 1;
font-size: small;
padding: 1em;
}

Updating package.

Thanks for the mod.  It took me a while before I found out that I had to select the theme(in this case default) before I could get to the page where I set the copyright's message.  Duh.     (SMF2beta4).

If you are interested in placing a custom copyright footer on your Simple Machines Forum (and much more, see below) then look no further than The Custom Copyright Mod created verily by the hand of ccbtimewiz. You can find this mod by following the link below:

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1317

Reverend Jeremiah and Jesus Christ Arcade highly recomends this SMF Modification for ALL Simple Machines Forums users. We didnt rate it 4 and a half stars for nothing! This Mod is EXTREMELY easy to work with and allows you to do more than just add a custom Copyright on your Footer. The only reason why we didnt give this Mod 5 stars is because you might, depending on your SMF version, have to do some minor adjustments with manual coding. This Mod will work regardless of the manual coding on 1.1.x versions if you dont mind a blank text input in your admin center that controls this mod. In other words, get the mod, install it, post your prefered code and forget it. The flexability of this Mod alone is worth it. Let me show you:

Step one - You want to download the packet (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1317) and follow all of its simple instructions to install this mod onto your forum, and the support forum is wonderful as well, so please feel free to post your thanks and praises to the maker of this GAH-LORIOUS Mod like I just did. 

Step Two - Once you have the mod uploaded and installed, please goto: ADMIN > CONFIGURATION > CURRENT THEME > ENTER CUSTOM COPYRIGHT.

Step Three - This Mod works with plain text, BBCode AND HTML.. THIS IS SUCH A WONDERFUL MOD! If you JUST want to post a plain text copyright, then I suggest you use the template below:

Code Select Expand

yoursite © 2006-2008

The template above lets you copy the copyright symbol and makes it easy for novices or beginners to work with. The text will be automatically centered. This is the BARE MINIMUM when it comes to copyright... but what if you want to have a link connected to this copyright text? Then you can use BBcode, or html to send the link to another page or site like this:

Code Select Expand

<p align="center"><a target="_self" href="http://anothersite.com/">yoursite © 2006-2008</a>

But wait..there is more...

The main reason why this Mod got such a high rating is because you can code ENDLESS html or BB into that little text area on your ADMIN page. In fact, I turned this Mod into a navigation footer for my website. Check out the amount of code I put into that little text area:

Code Select Expand

<p align="center"><a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php">Home</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?action=arcade">Games</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?board=4.0">Comics</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?board=10.0">Clocks</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?board=3.0">Sermons</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?board=5.0">Videos</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?action=tpmod;dl">Downloads</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?board=12.0">Support</a> | <a target="_self" href="http://jesuschristarcade.com/index.php?action=pages;sa=5">About Us</a></p>

Hell yeah! See what I mean about this Mod? You can do MANY things with this SMF Mod. If you have SMF, you NEED this Mod to give you freedom and eay access to your footer area! Go get it now!

I have installed my first smf board (1.1.7), I found the post on integrating smf into the site design http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?P=167abe1acb996bd8148968e93a91c415&topic=145838.0

I have duplicated the default theme to tweak for the site and used the index.template.php (which is for 1.1.1). Everything has went smoothly.

I have installed only the copyright mod, on install it alerted me that it skipped the style sheet but the rest went perfect and the mod does work after I modified the themes index.template.php.

I went back to read the manual install on the mod because the only glitch is the text next to the input form is not there. When I browsed by ftp to find the css it did not modify since I thought this was the problem it isn't there. There is no Themes/default/css folder, and there is no index.css in the Themes/default/ folder.

This is not huge deal since it works but I was surprised to see after reading the topic that no one else has had the problem with the index.css not being there.

The section I am referring to on the manual install for 1.1.7 directions http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=parse
are

Code Select Expand

./Themes/default/css/index.css
Find: [Select]
#footerarea ul li.copywrite
{
display: block;
line-height: 0;
font-size: small;
padding: 1em;
}
Replace With: [Select]
#footerarea ul li.copywrite
{
display: block;
line-height: 1;
font-size: small;
padding: 1em;
}
This operation isn't vital to the installation of this mod.

If someone can tell me what to change to get the text to show in admin I would appreciate it however the mod is working great and I can live with it

I am trying to use the mod for SMF 2.0 Beta Public 4. It seems to write the custom copyright message on top of the SMF copyright thus jumbling up both. What should I do to fix it? It seems they are both being written on the same line in the same space.

[Bulakbol]

@SilentMoon
I don't think you need to change anything in the css file for version 1.1.7.  The css is for version 2.0 Beta 4.

@Netizen
In the default/css/index.css file, find

#footerarea ul li.copywrite
{
   display: block;
   line-height: 1;
   font-size: small;
   padding: 1em;
}

and make sure that the value of line-height is not zero. Change it to 1.3 if you want.

[CPOMorty]

Thanks for the great mod.

I have this installed in 1.1.7 and I noticed that when I use the print button there is no custom copyright on the print page, which would be a good place to have it.

Regards,

Murray

It is still not working for Beta 2.0 p 4 Here is portion of index.css:
#footerarea ul li.copywrite
{
   display: block;
   line-height: 1;
   font-size: small;
   padding: 1em;
}
#footerarea ul li.copywrite, #footerarea ul li.last
{
   border-right: none;
}

@CPOMorty
To add your custom copyright to print page, in default/Printpage.template.php, find

Code Select Expand

<div align="center" class="smalltext">', theme_copyright(), '</div>

Code (replace) Select Expand

<div align="center" class="smalltext">', !empty($settings['custom_copyright']) ? '<span class="smalltext">'. parse_bbc($settings['custom_copyright']). '</span>' : '', '<br />', theme_copyright(), '</div>

@Netizen98
Try higher number on the line height value.
