Question changing text of copyright box

I want to change the text in the copyright footer but cannot find where to do this.

i have looked at bottom.tpl and copyright.tpl but these dont appear to have the text in them.

In admin/general settings/company options fill in the correct text in all boxes - it will change that text

thanks Steve - I checked the general settings and can see where the company name change is. I wanted to change the whole thing.

really i want to scrap my help.tpl and put most of the links into the footer.

not sure i am that brave yet but another coffee and i might explore futher.

thanks for the guidance.

yes Mr Ryan - copyright.tpl.

should i admit now i was inspired by your work to go with xcart - so during the good hours you stand on a pedestal for me, but during other (more frustrating hours) i blame you for everything.

let presume i can figure out how to put my links into copyright.tpl without causing major damage; how do i scrap the help.tpl?

thanks for the guidance from a very very newbie.

Yea, everyone always blames me for everything That's ok, when you make your first million, I want a 1% finders fee!

Yep, you can add whatever html you want to that template.

To hide help.tpl, comment it out of customer/home.tpl. Have a look at this guide which will help you understand the basics of template editing:
