In one of the templates for CMS, joomla replaced the "check" with the authenticity of copyright. Here is the code from the index.php template. When changing the copyright - The template will break if author link is removed.
And nothing is displayed.
<div id="bottom"> <div class="tg"> <jdoc:include type="modules" name="copyright"/>2011. <?php if ($this->params->get( 'footerdisable' )) : ?><?php echo ($footertext); ?><?php endif; ?></div></div> <!-- Link protected by copyright law. DO NOT REMOVE! --><div class="lls">Powered by <a href="http://www.Сайт_производителя.com/" title="joomla 1.7 templates" target="_blank">Joomla 1.7 Templates</a></div> </div>
How to remove this check?
