Neve 3.3.0 added non removable copyright links in footer

  • Previously free feature “removing footer links to neve theme” is now available on pro version.

    Neve version 3.3.0 removes previously free feature “remove forced footer links to theme”. And makes is available in paid version.

    Related update in 3.3.0 changelog appears as “Drop the copyright footer component and add static copyright;” which forces footer links to “neve theme” and to www.ads-software.com

    For increasing sales and getting more customers to pro version please try using affiliates with theme reviews.

    Forcing footer links after gaining 300k+ active installs is not good practice. I discovered those footer links by accident after couple days past updating theme.

    “Removing footer links” was first thing that I liked about old neve theme. Now it is gone ??

    Do not remove free features after gaining popularity. 300k people rely on these features. Please do not break trust that you built over the years.

  • I’m not a developer, but you can still hide it via CSS. I do not support developers in this decision as well.

    .footer-bottom-inner
{
	display:none;

    Hello, @arskrigitsioniets and @veppa,

    Thank you for using Neve and for reaching out!

    We apologize for the frustration this change must have caused you. I do understand that this is not a popular decision but we analyzed the product sustainability and growth and in order to further support the innovation and development we appeal to our users to further support our work by either recommending our product if they like or financially via paying for the PRO version. Moreover please consider that Neve is a customer-funded project and without Premium product sales we can’t provide any updates whatsoever to the free product.

    With that in mind we have decided that if you want to update to the newer version, you’ll either have to get the premium version to get the functionality or accept that some features would be missing. Alternatively, you’re free to continue to use the 3.2.x version for as long as you want.

    If you think that Neve PRO does not provide enough value to buy it, I do understand but with the support of those that will do we hope to increase the value over time thru new features to make it worth it for you too.

    Thank you for understanding and have a great day ahead!
