Help me get rid of this footer

  • Hi! I’ve found two themes that suit my website, but they both have an encoded footer. For the first one, changing it was easy enough. I decrypted footer.php and made an edit in the codes.

    However the second theme (which looks a lot nicer than the first!) has a different security. Footer.php is intact but here, the first code lines from functions.php are encrypted. I ran these trough the decrypter and it worked, it just gives me the regular code used by the developer. Here’s the output, i think the footer tampering code that i wanna edit is in the last couple of lines:

    [ 835 lines of code moderated, that’s just way too much. For that many lines of code please use pastebin.com instead. ]

    So now you’re wondering, if you got all that code, whats to prevent you from editing it. Well, when i try to replace the nonsense encrypted bits with the real codelines that i just posted, my homepage will say:

    “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in I:\local wordpress backup\iwpserver\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\CasinoThemes\OnlineCasinoTemplate935\functions.php on line 1096”

    I’m a newbie with wordpress so some help would be rly appreciated! Thnx!

    Daniel858? I honestly suggest you lose that theme like a bad infection. Also that non-GPL friendly theme is not welcome or supported here.

    Non GPL products are not welcome in the WordPress community. Official WordPress policy states that all plugins and themes that are publicly released are required to adhere to https://www.ads-software.com/about/gpl/

    Any support requests for non-GPL products are usually ignored, in the interests of supporting the community and its freedoms.

    Please consider using one of the many themes available in the theme repo here.

    https://www.ads-software.com/themes/

    Anyone of those themes will be supported in these forums.

    I did not realise that, sorry! It’s a shame though cause ive been browsing many many themes and none look as good as the one that im using now ?? Can you maybe give me some tips how i can design a similar theme myself? Where should i get started?

    Designing a complete theme is a major project and not something for anyone other than WP experts. Look through the theme repo (using Jan’s link above) for a theme that has the functionality you need and roughly the correct layout. Don’t worry about appearance, that’s relatively easy to change.

    You can then alter the theme to your heart’s content by creating a Child Theme that contains all of your CSS and PHP changes.

    can you post code of functions.php which is encrypted?

    Ha! Please do not do that. Seriously don’t.

    That theme and requests like that are not welcomed here. That’s a non-GPL friendly theme and those should be avoided like a bad infection for the reasons already stated above.
