Remove Powered By Opencart

This tutorial will show you how to remove 'powered by opencart' from the bottom of your opencart store. I will be using cPanel file manager to do this.

Opencart Store.

To remove the powered by you need to edit the folder footer.php. You can find this in public_html/catalog/language/english/common/footer.php. 

Once you have found the file you need to search for the code 'Powered By <a href="http://www.opencart.com">OpenCart</a> </br> and remove it (mine is on line 17).

Once you have removed it the file should look like this:

<?php

// Text

$_['text_information']  = 'Information';

$_['text_service']      = 'Customer Service';

$_['text_extra']        = 'Extras';

$_['text_contact']      = 'Contact Us';

$_['text_return']       = 'Returns';

$_['text_sitemap']      = 'Site Map';

$_['text_manufacturer'] = 'Brands';

$_['text_voucher']      = 'Gift Vouchers';

$_['text_affiliate']    = 'Affiliates';

$_['text_special']      = 'Specials';

$_['text_account']      = 'My Account';

$_['text_order']        = 'Order History';

$_['text_wishlist']     = 'Wish List';

$_['text_newsletter']   = 'Newsletter';

$_['text_powered']      = '<br /> %s &copy; %s';

Once you have done this the powered by opencart should be gone from the bottom of your opencart store. This is the way I have found the easiest, some may do it a different way.

Finished Result.
