Watercolor Theme injected credits I can’t remove!

  • I activated the newest version of Watercolor Theme and at the end of each page & post the Credits show up of who designed the theme & his co. I searched through the entire (complicated) file structure but found no way to remove this. I went to the author’s site and tried to fill out a contact for but there is an error on their page and the contact form won’t work.

    so I deactivated the thme, activated a new one.

    The credits for Watercolor still appear even though I manually delete them from posts or pages.

    I deleted Watercolor completely from wp-content, doesn’t budge the problem.

    Am I now destine to have this appear all over my blog for perpetuity?

    Horrible.

  • i tampered around with watercolor’s functions.php
    which is a nice amount of base64 encoded stuff…

    i found that you can actually comment out everything that is in functions.php.
    however, functions.php adds a style sheet line in the xhtml header, namely a ‘float:left;’ to #content
    adding that to #content in the style.css file, and i need no further data from functions.php

    functions.php does the following:
    – adds a style sheet line in your xhtml header, to ‘force’ it’s need
    – polls rss feeds from templatelite.com
    – adds links to hosters in your meta links
    – adds links to hosters in the credits line

    by removing the functions defined, and adding the style sheets lines found in the xhtml header to your styles.css file, this ‘gibberish’ does not happen any longer.

    appologies to the author, but free templates which poll your website and in addition link to various hosters you might like or might be sponsored by, may be a nice thing for you – but to nobody else, to me this is a nogo, unless you state those details somewhere!
    however this is not mentioned, not even in the readme or changelog file!
