Copyright error message
« on: November 17, 2006, 06:21:59 AM »

When I use JSMF on my local server it is okay, but when I move it to my online host I get this error message:
"Sorry, the copyright must be in the template.Please notify this forum's administrator that this site is using an ILLEGAL copy of SMF!"

I am using a Mobius template put out by Rockettheme SMF. In their forum at:
http://www.rockettheme.com/index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=149&topic=5341.0
there is a message:
"I was using the JSMF bridge...IF you use the Wrapper instead of Wrapped, you get the error. There is a difference. In the JSMF config, set to wrapped, then when making a menu item, use the Link to Component feature and it works fine. Just don't use the Wrapper menu item. Make sense?
All the other templates don't do this, so musta been a small footer change that didn't let the board find the copyright."

I am doing this but I still have the error. Any ideas?

Check if your forum is showing the footer. It could be that the theme you're using removed the footer.

Secondly, the link to the post you gave require login, which needs a rockettheme registration, which requires payment.

Lastly, i think you shouldnt be posting a commercial template online.

By the way, i downloaded it Wink

It is showing the footer, which says:
"Powered by SMF 1.1 RC3 | SMF © 2001-2006, Lewis Media
Joomla Bridge by JoomlaHacks.com
Design by RocketTheme"
Looking at the files I can see the JSMF bridge makes some changes to the files and also the language files, so that is why I thought if you guys had a copy you might be able to see the solution easily... yeah, should have emailed it.

Any more ideas?

Unfortunately no...but i'm pretty sure www.simplemachines.org will have a solution. You tried their forums yet..? what's the url to your site, by the way..?

I just made a change that I had missed on the Mobius joomla template instructions:

"A minor change is required in the Mobius joomla template in order for the SMF theme to know what color it should use. Open up the “index.php” file in your /templates/rt_mobius/ folder and modify the tag so it looks like this:
<body class="<?php echo $tstyle; ?> <?php echo $widthstyle; ?> <?php echo $fontstyle; ?>">"

Horay! It seems now the template works within Joomla. The address is:
www.eventfulholidays.com
I only get the error message if I bypass Joomla with www.eventfulholidays.com/smf

No, I didn't do either. Maybe I got conflicts because the SMF mobius template is designed to work with the site Mobius template. I don't know.

I too have this problem when viewing the forums in the unwrapped mode only. No copyrights error when viewing my SMF forums in the wrapped way.

I also tried to change the SMF theme back to the default theme, but same problem exists in the unwrapped mode.

I couldn't find the footer file in my forums directory, anyone can tell me where the footer file is??

thanks a lot!

The most common thing with the copyright error . is that the code is not in de index.template.php (or is not correct) or that there is something going wrong with the language files.

Style problems with the footer:
You can find it with the Firefox Webdeveloper toolbar. Your templates are using the same Class ID’s This can and is your problem. There are several ways to fix this.

Example of duplicate Class Id’s. (the footer Class Id)

Joomla footer (index.php)
Code:
<div class="topnav" id="footer">
<?php mosLoadModules('footer', -1); ?>
<?php include_once( $mosConfig_absolute_path .'/includes/footer.php' ); ?>
</div>

SMF footer (index.template.php)
Code:
<div id="footer">', theme_copyright(), '</div>

I renamed the footer ID from the Joomla template also ajust the Css file. and it works for me.

thanks Livebox.

I am wondering why the problem only arises when viewing the forums in the unwrapped way (like http://www.joomlahacks.com/forums), considering the forums don't interfere with Joomla!?

thanks again.
