The phrase Powered by Zen Cart may be removed by editing a file.
As with any item in a file on Zen Cart a good starting point is to use the Developers Toolkit to search for the phrase. The Developers Toolkit is found at
Tools >> Developers Toolkit
Scroll to the bottom of the page, to the section Look-up in all files.
Enter powered by in the textbox, select
- All Files – Catalog/admin
- File Type: .php only
Click on search at the end of the row.
A list of files with the phrase powered by will be shown at the top of the page, detailing the line number, file name and with a snippet of code relevant to the search.
To remove the phrase Powered by Zen Cart from the footer, find the appropriate files, templates not in use can be ignored. Edit the files either directly on the server, or more likely, via FTP, downloading the file, making the necessary changes and uploading it again.
For the search conducted the phrase was in the file /includes/languages/english.php with the snippet of code as below Line #15 :
define('FOOTER_TEXT_BODY', 'Copyright © ' . date('Y') . ' <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '" >' . STORE_NAME . '</a>. Powered by <a href="http://www.zen-cart.com" target="_blank">Zen Cart</a>');
I changed the above content to be: Line #15 :
define('FOOTER_TEXT_BODY', 'Copyright © ' . date('Y') . ' <a href="' . zen_href_link(FILENAME_DEFAULT) . '" >' . STORE_NAME . '');
