If you have been a Joomla Developer for sometime, you may find it a hassle to change your footer note. If you are using templates (which most of us will), you must go into the template index.php to manually add in the codes and upload the file to your server.

This is not sexy at all especially for people (which again, most of us) who do not have knowledge or just do not want to mess with codes. Until this feature is packaged together with the new Joomla version, we will have to applaud Philippe S Borowek for his significant contribution of his custom footer add-on for Joomla 1.5.

Change your Joomla footer note within seconds!

Installing this add-on will allow you to change the footer text in your administrator panel using the Module Manager. You are able to add in HTML codes as well, thus giving you great flexibility especially if you are giving credits to your sponsors or supporters.

Download this time-saving add-on here! Did I mention its free? Thanks Philippe =)

Extra Note:
In Joomla version 1.5, you can simply disable the footer module if you do not want to show anything in your site’s footer. Joomla default installation comes with the original footer module which you can disable with a click. However, you will need the above add-on or manually change the codes if you want to customize your footer text.
